British bullies taunt elderly man in YouTube video

A British tourist and his 2 friends made a video of themselves taunting an elderly trishaw man while on holiday in Singapore. Bo Davis 26, then thought it would be really funny to post the video on YouTube entitled “The Slowest Taxi in Southeast Asia”.
In the video, the 3 medium-sized men can be seen squeezing into a trishaw which normally takes 1 or 2 persons at most. The elderly man clearly struggling to carry 3 in his trishaw peddled at a snails’ pace while the 3 men taunted him for going slowly.
The trishaw driver is 67-year-old Mr Lee Shee Lam who has been riding for 15 years now. He told The New Paper that the original price agreed on was $15 but after the ride, the 3 men left without paying and got into a taxi instead.
The video has since been removed by Bo Davis but someone reposted it (linked above) with the title “Bastards bullying Singapore senior citizen” with over 69,000 views and nearly 2,500 comments which contained all the expletives in the known world in various languages directed at Bo Davis.
When contacted, Bo Davis was unrepented and said that “Looking back, I think we were insensitive. But bullies, no.” He said: “If it were three Asian guys and not three white guys. Would it have got the same reaction?”.
Bo Davis clearly needs a good whupping on his derriere to learn what respect means.
