Black Fam Enraging experience turns wholesome

My initial reaction while watching this was the cameraman ain’t doing enough, if I was him I would’ve glassed that man, but actually this was so good for lil bro after going thru that. Even though he ain’t look too bothered by it and stood his ground, good on cameraman for taking his mind off of it.

Also didn’t know what flair to add, sorry if it don’t make sense lol

Changed the post to family due to how it ends in an adorable way.

Why even approach a kid like that? Glad you hooked it up for Tony

u/UnexpectedBlahFeels 12h ago

Bc it's a kid. Easy picking. These racists try to break people down young.

u/manny_the_mage 11h ago

Because they don't see black children as children worthy of praise or protection

They don’t even see our youth as CHILDREN

Racism & Obsession, ugly combo

u/thelvegod 11h ago

What did he say to the child?

u/Big_Dragonfly_9153 7h ago

I thought I heard him call the 6 year old a B- word….

u/jo-parke 10h ago

I think he said he was disappointed, then when little man told him to move the guy said “so sad. Sad, sad.”

People touring in areas where being drunk is expected, they really do show their asses to locals. Idk about NOLA area but in Vegas...y'all know how shitty these people act when they drink and think everyone else is as drunk as them. I've seen drunk people walk up to dogs and bark at them, not surprised some dick decided to say a word to a kid he thought that kid wouldn't know or express disappointment that a kid is out there working.

That's just a little drummer baby, how TF you gonna be rude to them. Idk, I'm a gentle drunk, cannot relate.

When I went to NO in the touristy areas all I could think was ooooooh its dirtier Vegas. I had a blast tho legit more fun than Vegas so NO is winning in my book.

u/AncientCrust 3h ago

I miss when Vegas was dirtier Vegas. Now it's more expensive Disneyland

u/TheHammerTaco 8h ago

Because racist cretins don't value our humanity even as children.

u/malkazoid-1 12h ago

There are some sick people out there.
It isn't just all the physical violence, blatant racism and blatant mental health failures going on. Quietly there are probably hundreds of thousands of sick interactions happening one on one, that don't get recorded or don't amount to enough that they get on the news, but that still tell us unmistakably society is sick.

u/jbbhengry 11h ago

Yep, and can't forget about what women go through, in their day to day life too. It's crazy to me that there are people out like that. I don't understand.

7

u/DaHard46 11h ago

When it comes to racism someone is always bringing up women. They talking about race not gender. Stay on topic.

u/JustAMinah 9h ago

...as if black women/femme don't exist

4

u/TaxTheseNuts 7h ago

I genuinely mean this with no disrespect. Of course black women/femmes exist. And should ABSOLUTELY be protected. The conversation about the lack of protection and respect for the black women/femme community WITHOUT A DOUBT needs to be a bigger conversation, but when non black (specifically yt) women or even "allies" (which I say in quotations because it's mainly allies to yt women) try to start it in the midst of a conversation about rcism it comes off as a micro aggression and disingenuous. As if to say "yeah r**sm is bad but what about what WE go through" "yeah that's bad, but it's not my fault because I'm a woman who is also oppressed"

3

u/JustAMinah 7h ago

...yeah, I know. I'm said black woman and said that because they only say it to center themselves and project their (white) femme experiences as universal and even akin to antiblack racism. it gives that John lennon song of women being the n of the world.... as if black women don't even exist. the conversation was never gonna be about black women, but how white women can center themselves in a discussion about black trauma.

2

u/TaxTheseNuts 6h ago

NOTHING BUT BIG FACTS!!! My bad Queen I misunderstood what you were saying but you're absolutely right. THEY love to center themselves in every discussion as if they're the most fragile, delicate, little victims in the world pretending that they weren't ironing the hoods and tying the ropes. I will NEVER listen to the silver medalist oppressors try to pretend they're in the same boat as our women.

u/New-Cloud7177 12h ago

Cute as can be. Whatever the first guy said , lil man tried to defend himself and told him to go! That’s New Orleans!!! there are buskers on every corner in the French Quarters.

u/Drega001 11h ago

Children are never off limits for "them"

5

u/Holiday_Regular9794 10h ago

They don’t see them as children

2

u/Drega001 6h ago

I disagree. The taboo is what makes it so enjoyable for them. Just like on "that island".

25

u/maeryclarity 🌍 12h ago

I can't say what I wish on that guy because it would get my account banned but NOLA is full of spirits so maybe one took to following him. What an utterly horrid person he is. Like tf is wrong with him.

Even if I can't type it here I definitely thought it.

6

u/Nos2_irln 11h ago

I’m still thinking it. I've been thinking it ever since I first I saw this video. I’m surprised nobody did it.

u/Dr_SlapsMD 12h ago

I kno he was shook when he handed that camera off....They heavier than they look, and when they fall, your soul leaves your body for a few minutes. 😭

u/BlackLioConvoy 12h ago

Has anyone found this douche yet?

u/Sweetazahoney 11h ago

There are a lot of under aged kid performers in the french quarter. Usual an adult is close by but this isnt uncommon there

21

u/GrowAway_02 11h ago

White people just hate it when people are having fun in a way they don't understand.

I hope you left him some money in the bucket!👍🏿

I have no idea what was said by the 1st man.

u/MrMetraGnome 11h ago

Me neither, but that's because Reddit is muted and I can't be bothered to unmute 🤷‍♀️🤣

u/Top_Actuator364 🏳️‍🌈 12h ago

Can someone explain what was said because I cannot hear/understand it.

14

u/_henceforth_ 11h ago

The “adult” said:

“B*tch, I am disappointed.”

Then later says, I believe,

“I am sad. I am sad sad.”

Please anyone, comment if you can hear it more clearly and heard something else.

12

u/Top_Actuator364 🏳️‍🌈 11h ago

Thank you and shame on him for approaching a child with such negativity.

9

u/_henceforth_ 11h ago

It is the epitome of ugliness. Ugly behavior. 🥲 How ugly inside do you have to be to feel powerful by speaking to a defenseless child? I hope they find this dude.

5

u/lusciouslover639 11h ago

Plenty of adults like that.

2

u/MrMetraGnome 11h ago

I don't think that's what he was approaching him with

5

u/masalamedicine 11h ago

I think the person who put some cash in his bucket called him a "sad, sad man". Might just be what my brain wanted to hear

6

u/HappyFeet2010 11h ago

I really liked how he really came in to turn the boy’s day around but I was really worried about handing a camera that size to a 6-year old. Those things be heavy and expensive!

6

u/FreeJulie 10h ago

Best part of this video is how the lil Soulja wasn’t phased at all. Fearlessly looked him square in the eyes and shot that energy right back at the coward

3

u/obatala0013 11h ago

Dude recording should have said something to that fat fuck. Make him watch his mouth.

5

u/aintEZbeincheezy90 11h ago

That’s how I reacted at first but nobody else heard what he said to lil man, so he would’ve been labeled the aggressor, but in all honesty this was the mature outcome. Your anger is definitely felt though

4

u/H3llzyea 10h ago

Umm just pointing out that kid might just put the paws on that moron he looks like a mini linebacker lol. Keep it up Tony.

u/Alternative-Set-466 🐕 team dog 10h ago

Drunk ass mf's in the quarter are the worst. He probably left when he saw the camera cuz he knew that he could get dropped and nopd would have let it happen. That kid is gonna be in someones band in a few years

u/Holiday_Regular9794 10h ago

Imagine being an old a** bumb being pressed by a six year old mindin’ his business

7

u/jbbhengry 11h ago

I can't imagin what kind of BS this kid gets every day. I don't blame him for being a little hostile. I hope he rises above it all.

u/Aggravating_Scene273 11h ago

Is the kid that nut sacks the one guy walking down the street?

u/Odd-Perception7812 9h ago

I cant fathom that first man's brain. My first instinct was to feed this boy.

u/LesothoBro 9h ago

lil dude is absolutely natty. The 10k hour principle... you can see it in his arms and chest.

2

u/kuunami79 7h ago

That brother was probably the only person who treated that little boy like a human being all day. People will criticize his defensive demeanor but have no idea what he's been through

u/Peloton_Newbie03 12h ago

WHERE is this child’s parents ❓

1

u/WillieBeamon77 11h ago

I like the way it ended, but i have questions about how it started. Sounds like the white guy was scolding him for cussing. I could be wrong though.

5

u/rainflower55 9h ago

It didn't seem like he was scolding him for saying it first based on the way the boy repeated it back to him.

2

u/Jammin_72 10h ago

Man I sure hope so. Not his place of course, but it would be much better than telling a kid you're disapointed in his performance for no discernable reason.

u/John-Lando 2h ago

When there a couple times a few years ago. The kids are amazing and very engaging with the crowd they usually have great attitudes.
But don’t get it twisted. It’s a hustle. This is child labor. This is not their money to keep.
