So what should I do? I mean, am I supposed to support this person or what? I mean, I guess I don't know what's going on, but he's already very upset.
02:16
Yeah, no, if you don't feel comfortable given the situation, standing in front of the bus being a disorderly situation, if you feel better to pass him up, just do that, okay?
