“Situational awareness could save your life. There was zero of that displayed here.”

He displayed awareness. His response was in adequate.

“People are going start needing helmets in NYC”

Wearing bicycle helmets that firmly strap on. Don’t go in the NYC subways without one on. The sidewalks too. Too many random psychos and aggressive youffs in New York.

Racist attack!

[TexasFreeper2009]

I am sure he was one of Obama’s sons without even looking

[immadashell]

When do to riots start?

Victor Vega of Lexington Avenue in Brooklyn

Not Mr. Blonde!

"I disagree. The victim seemed to be aware of the two thugs following closely, but I would conjecture that he didn’t want to come off as racist so he kinda aimlessly kept walking."

Yeah. Just before the punch, the victim half-turned towards the attackers and extended an arm. I wonder if he said something like, "Keep your distance."

[CodeJockey]

Whenever I’m out in public where I’m around anyone where my instinct warns me, I always make it a point to never get within a distance where they reach me without my reacting.

That man should have never gotten near those ferals. That mistake cost him his life.

[Truth29]

article a little short on information, description of attacker, are the police really looking, will the perp be held without bail or immediately released, etc.

[thegagline]

That is a very dark white supremacist.

[roadcat]

Situational awareness could save your life.

Yes. And having some kind of offensive gear to get perps to back off. As a senior, I always have something at the ready. I'm sitting in a mall waiting for my wife to come out of a clothing store. I spy a black thug with a hoodie sneaking towards me, and calmly pull a knife and rest it on my leg. Thug backs off and disappears. I'm not going down without a fight to maim them.

[Mr. K]

another ‘aspiring’ rapper??

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Wait wait, before I even read another word after the title, let me guess: It was two white supremacists who killed him. It must be because the Dear Leader Biden told us white supremacy is the biggest threat

[Perseverando]

Just Commucrats being Commucrats. No God, no problem.

The victim blocked the punch with his face causing injuy to the young gentleman’s hand. Therefore the 61 year old man is now the assilant. He’s dead, so it’s a victimless crime. Yeah, that makes sense in a “Let’s Go Brandon” world.

Nothing to see here. Move along. It’s New York. What did you expect?

[PGR88]

Situational awareness could save your life. There was zero of that displayed here. RIP Mr Vega.

They were engaging him at the start of video. I will guess they wanted money, and threatened him, but didn't show a weapon. The hoodies and especially masks also tell me they were in the mugging business - few young black thugs are actually concerned about covid.

That's the problem with living in NY City. One's situational awareness alarms are going off all the time.

"...suspects..."

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

If the races were reversed it would be headline news all week with non-stop white supremacy accusations with Biden & Liz Cheney once again claiming white supremacy is the biggest threat to the nation

[mrmeyer]

Not enough buddies to make that a reality

[ytrebil]

It’s those Africans again.
