This type of behaviour is unacceptable. More people need to speak up against abuse.
I agree however people who whip out their phones and start shooting these days are just asking for trouble and should be aware of it as the perpetrators will view them as a threat.
It’s as good as deciding to put yourself right in the middle of an incident now.
In this case, shouldn’t you? The bus driver did nothing wrong.
Guess it depends if you want a beat down from a bunch of angry teens. A little camera phone isn’t gonna stop that (and it didn’t).
Maybe if you’re with a big group to back you up. But I’d never recommend my own mother do this.
If you’re wondering about the downvotes, I got brigaded by PRC simps. Lemmy doesn’t yet have the protection against this that Reddit had.
