This is labelled "Graphic", and it is, someone dies, but no more graphic than this one: This is why you don't draw on a drawn gun!
I didn't hear any bad words, but I can't understand most of what was being said, especially when the screaming starts.
There is a shorter version that shows from the point just before the cop enters the bus, but I think it is educational to see the lead-up to the final confrontation. You can think about what you'd do if you were on the bus when this guy gets onboard (or when the fight starts). Also food for thought on gun retention, holding your gun when entering close spaces, and so forth.

What the bus driver did not know is that this guy had already had one interaction with the police that day. The police had been called when the man was observed banging his head on the floor (at a church I think), apparently upset about impending divorce. The police took him to a hospital for a mental evaluation where he was evaluated, treated I guess, and released. He then possibly broke a window on a car, then jumped in another car with two women (who didn't know him) and told them to drive. After about a mile he got out, and somewhere in there someone called the police. The police started looking for him (don't know if they realized it was the same guy from earlier in the day). He ran down the street and got on the bus, which is where the video picked up. The two cops who entered the bus were in the area looking for him because of the "kidnapping" report.
