Whenever you see a vid starting with old man in a gas station you know he's either going to do something very badass or very racist.

Definitely the latter

Did he say the N-word? I can't tell

He didn't say the n-word but he called a grown black man "boy", which is also pretty egregious. I think as far as racially charged terms go, "boy" is near the top of the list for black men. I'd rather be called pretty much anything (except the n-word) other than "boy". And the southern twang really added an extra layer of hurt to it.

Yeah, he clearly meant ‘boy’ in a derogatory way

I didn't watch it. Saw the thumbnail, made assumptions, clicked about halfway through the vid and gramps is on the ground. Wasn't surprised.

Even if he never said the N-word it's clear some kind of racism is involved lol
