1. "I'm about to get in a fight right here with twenty people..."
Well, he wasn't kidding.

I wonder why that one dude jumped on his back?

3. Because he was an asshole
the media thinks they have a right to take over people's neighborhoods and disrupt their lives.

7. Not sure.
Maybe the man in yellow thought the man in white had The One Ring.

8. When another dude or two got in "to help", they actually loosened up the knot...
...which gave the screamer the opportunity to get a free arm to face bash the other guy.

Way to help out.

2. Seriously
There should be laws preventing the media from stalking out someone's house. If this was going on in my neighborhood I'd be doing everything I legally could to fuck with them.

4. Why do "they" hate us?
Because we're ASS HOLES.
As evidenced by this video.

5. I feel like we're witnessing the end of civilization.
A lot of people are teetering on the edge and the media wants to create 'news.'

Poor guy just trying to drive down his own street. I feel for him.

9. Ah screw it. Warhol was a prophet--everyone is now famous for 15 minutes...
...and somewhere in Hollywood or Manhattan a producer is watching footage of a yellow-shirted guy who jumped an irate neighbor of the parents of a boy who WASN'T in a balloon and thinking "This guy has serious reality show potential."
