The funny thing was he could. the bus was unsegregated. the Driver took offense, and call the MP then some rasicts pushed it along and set it up so they could get him court marshalled. only to have the court throw the case out.

The bus was unsegregated, His Co refused to press charges so they transferred him to a new division where the co was more then happy to throw the book at him... Only to be acquitted in the end.
