Well he wasn't just "some old man". He was a drunken asshole and racist instigator.
Does that warrant the beat-down? No, not in my book.
But it doesn't evoke any sympathy from me.
He was a drunk who drunkenly decided to insult an entire bar of potentially drunk patrons at the last moment and got roughed up for his trouble.
Racist element aside, this is definitely the sort of shit my brain would normally file under Drunk People Problems.
Was he drunk? I don't know. Do you know that? He was angry. He was saying something about one of them nearly running him over.
I don't have a whole lot of sympathy for him either. His conduct was certainly disorderly. Racist instigator? I don't know. People use the most offensive words they can come up with when they are angry. That doesn't make them racist instigators. It just makes them angry people who are saying hurtful things. If he's a racist instigator, then so are a whole bunch of black people who say racist things about white people when they get angry. But I usually don't see them as racist instigators. I just see them as being angry people who are intentionally saying offensive things because they are angry.
