Putting aside the fact that the ladies, if you will, involved in the infamous Muni bus fight lacked moral character, tact or basic human decency, community leaders hosted a panel discussion and media roundtable today "to reduce tensions between the city's Asian and African American communities." The discussion was sparked over the videotaped Muni fight that captured the internet's attention a few weeks ago.

"Just another day on Muni... fuc**ng Muni," relents the cameraman shooting this video of a fight between two women on a Chinatown Muni bus. (The 30 line, if we have to guess.)

The fine folks over at Mission Mission have some news -- gritty, impoverished and exciting news, that is. It seems an alleged methhead with leg tattoos and a penchant for ladies footwear tried stealing a pair shoes from a gaggle of chatty cathys in Dolores Park over the weekend. This did not go well. After the women had the unmitigated gall to turn their snotty noses up at his fine leg art and rotting teeth, things got ugly. Allegedly.

Whether it be his readers or the wait staff at Bar Bambino, Eater editor extraordinaire, Paolo Lucchesi, can get almost anyone whipped up into a frothy frenzy. Take, for example, the very innocent post he posted up yesterday, linking to Lauren Smiley's feature article on Yelp in this week's SF Weekly. The article, more or less, is about how business owners strive to keep Yelpers happy in order to get good reviews. (Great job, Lauren!) But the real meat here is Eater mentioning the "Yelp elite" via a quote from said article, which prompted the comments section to explode.

Just in case you thought you were over it, you're not. Not by the longest shot, kiddo. Because the Violet Blue vs. Boing Boing is far from finished. This most recent attack comes to you in convenient Twitter form, via Boing Boing comments moderator, the loopy Teresa Nielsen Hayden, who calls Blue a fibber and accusing Gawker Media of an all out attack. (?!) And then there was some sort of linkage freak out. Someone's hair was pulled. Maybe. It's all very confusing, but Valleywag fills you in on all the savory details right here.

Over at the Niles Banquet Hall in Fremont on Saturday night, five men were stabbed (while a sixth suffered a serious head injury) after five uninvited guests tried crashing a wedding. After being asked to leave, it seems, the creeps got brutal after one member of the clan pulled out a knife. According to the Oakland Tribune, "one victim was found lying facedown on the sidewalk and stabbed in the back several times. Another was found with blood on the inside of his leg and several stab wounds."

Taylor Buckley, 18, of San Carlos was initially arrested for aggravated assault on Giraudo. He posted bail, but soon after Giraudo died, he was later re-arrested on suspicion of murder.

In our continuing Orwellian coverage, we present to you a BART fight captured on tape, which happened after midnight on New Year's Eve. Really now. We expect this kind of behavior on the 24-Divis or the 38-Geary, but not on BART. (It's classy and carpeted, for Christ's sake.)

Mere days after the head of the environmental department broke with Aaron Peskin and other city leaders on a Public Utilities Commission policy, this week Peskin introduced a wee bit of legislation that would obliterated said department. Yoinks.
