The world has gone mad..Manners have gone completely out of to the window. No one is polite anymore with the majority of people rude and aggressive.. Therevis no need or no excuse for this type of behaviour. I hope the bus driver is okay and the culprit is caught soon.
Politness and good manners cost nothing..
