How about he showed he his ID (like I would have) and thanked her for being vigilant about building security? Imagine the doors that would open for anyone at his age with that attitude?
So you get out ID, keys and give out your apartment address to any strangers that demand it?
Doesn't matter. This girl has been tried and convicted in the court of City Data wingnuttery of being a racist and deserving of losing her job and pretty much having the course of her life permanently altered.
Of course it matters. Would she confront a white woman in the same situation? I really doubt it. Then after she creates a crisis of her own making, she calls the police to report that she felt uncomfortable with him in the building! I can see the officer rolling his eyes now.
Personally what I would have done in that situation is slam the door in the woman's face from the outside and then open it with my key, and as I walked by her, I would have told her to get an effin' life. The guy was much more polite than I would have been to her.
The only wingnut involved in the situation was the woman.

Give her his personal information? For all he knew, she could have been fishing for information for identity theft.
You are assuming this, or you have a video of the exchange where we can see the two of them?
Not at all. Knowing our countries history is important and rather insightful. Those who dismiss cases like th is as merely nothing should try reading up and educating themselves. Then again, those that do still find reasons/ways to bury their heads in the sand.
That's what I'm asking. There was something about this guy that caused her to freak out, what was it. Something about him freaked her out, and made her very uncomfortable.
I've never been the type of person who leaps to conclusions, and readily joins the lynch mob to convict someone over knee jerk assumptions. I'm sure there are video cameras at the entrance, have we seen them?
I just find it curious that this guy was so quick to whip out his phone and was able to start recording the entire exchange.
Curious? As a black male alone with a nutjob, I find it incredibly smart of him. I thought she was blocking the door just waiting for him to even slightly bump into or brush against her.
Can you imagine what the narrative would have been like from some people in this thread if the situation had reversed?
What if an outspoken black man was being aggressive and blocking a white woman from entering her apartment bldg., demanding information from her?
Great point! They would be like yeah he deserved to get shot! The nerve of this THUG to try and stop an young innocent blond from entering her OWN apartment.
She is clearly policing him. Policing black people is an entitlement of White privilege.
