I think that there is probably a lot more to the story than we know. The guy has a different skin colour- he is already a target.
Yeah right, ticket controllers only checking blacks, what country are you talking about? For sure not Poland! :D
In my experience- ticket controllers are a-holes. I already posted how one took money from me- funny that, maybe he should have given me a ticket or at least a receipt- no, just the cash.
I'm sorry to hear this, but this happens very rarely, so you can't generalize this to all ticket controllers. Maybe next time you should buy a ticket, just like that ***** should have done.
The fact is there are many people in Poland that don't appreciate people with an obvious different ethnicity. I do ok because I am a pastey faced white girl and I speak Polish.
Maybe this has something to do with the fact that very few Africans live in Poland and yet it's not that rare to see them in the news because of crimes they commit.
And Polish people are not blind. They see what groups started and contributed the most to the riots in England.
I am not saying it is acceptable but I am willing to bet that the ticket controller was quite aggressive and probably threatened him.
It's very unlikely that ticket controllers start to attack a passenger for not showing a valid ticket. They would get fired because many witnesses would tell the police that they started.
So it's much more likely that the Nigerian told some BS excuse and that he refused to show his ID card, refused to pay a fine and started the aggression.
