Hood pranks... gone wrong!

Yea because your freedom of doing what you want ends when you put someone else in danger, or act like you do.

None of those acted like they were putting people in danger the worst one and the one I disagree with was the grabbing of the phone. Of course people are going to assume you're stealing from them in that situation. If someone asks you do you want to buy a gun, a normal persons reaction wouldn't be to punch them, a normal reaction would be to ask them to explain, say no or walk away. If you take pictures of someone you're first reaction should be to find out if and why not attack them. That's the mentality of thugs and goons and other names for people who make life more difficult for others just because they want to or can, and that's regardless of race so don't get it twisted.

Refer to my earlier post if you want to talk about environment.

Just because they grew up in a tough, poor and dangerous area doesn't mean they have to act violently. Some of those in the video actually reacted like decent humans, most succumbed to the stereotypes of growing up there. This video is a collection of fails so it seems as if that's the typical reaction but on the actual videos they have just as many appropriate reactions, so the whole environment dictates action isn't a great reasoning, the people who responded with violence would most likely do so regardless of where or how they were raised.

If you think so.

The evidence is in these videos.

As long as you realize what you said and:

¨Wars don't cause PTSD because there are soldiers who come back from war without PTSD; soldiers who got PTSD would have gotten it even if they hadn't been to war.¨
¨Fires don't kill people because there are people who have been set on fire and survived; people who died from fire trauma would have gotten that trauma and died anyways.¨

are in akin to each other.

Those guys are idiots. :/

Not really because neither of those examples are relevant to being raised in a particular environment but if you want to continue believing you convoluted thought feel free.

No, they are not exactly the same, but no analogy is.

You're saying that the environment these people grew up in had absolutely no effect(i.e., in this case, producing violent reactions) because there are people who were exposed to the same thing, but didn't end up the same way.

That's like saying that the environment of war never has a certain effect on soldiers(PTSD) because there are soldiers who were in the same environment as war, but didn't end up with PTSD.

That's like saying that the environment of a house on fire will never have a certain effect on people(kill them) because there were people who were in the same environment as a house on fire, and survived. My thoughts are convoluted? Maybe, but your thoughts being ignorant sounds more like the right track.

Again it's not "like" them, one is a consistent impact on growth the others are instances of struggle. You're trying to connect two isolated points through over complicated analogies, that's convoluted. Your first point was that the people reacted the way they did solely because they grew up in tough areas but if that was the reason why they reacted that way, then that would be the typical reaction for people from the area which it wasn't. Plenty of people from the same situation were able to interpret the situation calmly, those people reacted because they perceived a threat either to them or their pride, it's a persons interpretation of his environment which helps guide his behavior.

Whatever you say buddy.
Edit: The bold is actually where you agreed with me unknowingly. TY and Riker Slade drools.

They probably get mad money rolling in from that. Lot of people, including myself, find it hilarious to watch their victims freak out over dumb shit like asking, "Do you have a problem?" while dressed as a nerd.

When you think about it, it's not a surprise. Humanity does ridiculously insipid/dangerous things for entertainment purposes every day. Running with bulls, skydiving, deep sea exploration, Russian roulette, tight walking over canyons and shit... people love adrenaline and watching others put themselves in harm's way.
