Здравствуйте. Подскажите, пожалуйста, как в данном случае можно перевести. Вот это место в ролике: https://youtu.be/obX8bRkpBfw?t=1m44s
Охранник ресторана, возле которого не по правилам припаркованы машины, просит активистов отойти от них в грубой форме. На что активист отвечает:
- За базаром следите. Извините, по-вашему буду говорить (т.е. на криминальном жаргоне).

It's perfectably acceptable in the UK. I guess, it's not surprising some slang words will be different in the US EN. "Базар" is slang though and should be translated as such so that the original meaning is not lost
