Temper tantrums are for children
I had an unfortunate experience on the Albany Transit bus leaving the eastside Walmart earlier this (Thursday) afternoon.
Two blacks got into a violent argument, which came a close to a violent fight. They wouldn’t even listen to the bus driver to calm down and cool it.
The words they exchanged were so bad, I couldn’t use them for print. The words were so bad, they offended me. I’m not used to those kinds of words.
The bus driver had to call the police to calm everything down. I have no problems with the courtesy and respect I get from the drivers; because of that, I’d continue to ride the Albany Transit again.
My complaint is if the other riders who can’t control their emotions riding the buses. They shouldn’t ride the buses and, in fact, should be permanently banned from riding the buses.
