^ Not my story. Not my foot but this is circulating on Facebook publicly. So if you look up Brenda Davie, you can express sentiments to her. You'd hope she reported it.
I hate to say it, but this dude should have had someone punch him right in the smug face so those horrid glasses wind up in his eyeballs. Then the bowler hat should get turned into a soup bowl by stomping on it.
If I was 20 years younger and was present, that would have been worth any police trouble.
Why would this not be reported as assault? Last time I checked, stomping and pushing people - anywhere - is classified as assault and with apparently a packed bus full of witnesses, surely this could and should have been dealt with like any other crime. Disgusting piece of work, this guy.
Hey people - back off! He's obviously had a bad day/month/year/life.... Looks like he's ticked off after being turned down for a role in one of the Batman movies from the 80's....
Brenda posted an update on FB saying she's thankful for all the support and that the TTC people (Brad Ross) has been in touch with her asking for more information.
It's one thing to tell someone to natter off, but when they're stomped on and pushed out of the way, a line has been crossed and it's assault.
Could people please stop lumping everyone from East York in with this loser and painting everyone with the same brush? He's a jerk. Not everyone in the east end is. Thanks.
not so....this was on CITY news last night and there was a witness to the incident. Whether it was a spat or not, an assault took place and the bag should have been removed from the seat for "anyone" to sit in regardless of who was asking. Nothing smells!! Let's not lose sight of what really happened here.
I don't think that it's the same guy. There are similarities sure, but the guy in the green shirt appears to have a lighter complexion and more angular features as well as looking older.
There's a video now on YouTube. Unfortunately doesn't support any physical claims.. However maybe that part of the clip is in the right hands. Douche bag for sure!

What a nasty piece of work. He should have been ejected from the bus at a minimum. Did anyone around you say anything? Hope your foot feels better.
ReplyDeleteWell, he certainly looks like a winner.
ReplyDeleteBowler hat, putrid green button-up shirt, pubic looking beard and jewelery. Yup, keeping it classy in East York!

ReplyDeleteWhat a POS

I'm not going to lie...if he stomped on my foot like that he'd be missing a few teeth right now.

Crap like this just pisses me off.
it's on the news:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.citynews.ca/2014/09/25/ttc-passenger-claims-she-was-assaulted-after-seat-hogging-dispute/
If I had any encounter with someone like that dude, I would challenge them to a fight and let Darwin take care of the rest.
ReplyDeleteThe problem with challenging a douche to a fight is that YOU would be the one charged with assault.
ReplyDeleteWithout a doubt, as soon as douchebag loses (and really he lost as soon as he got dressed that morning), he would be complaining to the cops.
They're always after me lucky charms!
DeleteI would have immediately picked up my phone and called the police to have him arrested for assault...
ReplyDeleteI shared this on FB and it was removed. Anyone know why it was pulled???

ReplyDelete^ Agreed.
ReplyDeleteIt may be gone from FB but this is the internet. Things live on forever.
ReplyDeleteOhhhh and it's the worst kind of hipster...the aging hipster.
ReplyDeleteGood guy TTC?? Apparently they're investigating.

ReplyDeletenot so....this was on CITY news last night and there was a witness to the incident. Whether it was a spat or not, an assault took place and the bag should have been removed from the seat for "anyone" to sit in regardless of who was asking. Nothing smells!!

ReplyDeleteIt's the same guy, but is that Brenda Davie in the photo? She doesn't look totally like the woman in the video.
ReplyDeleteThat lady has balls. Not you.
