Intersectionality leads to conflict because intersections are where things collide when every aggrieved party thinks they have right of way.

And it also comes with the generation of new ideas and solutions, some that are absolutely dazzling.

It was closed after a few hours. She got trashed, I do feel sorry for that part. But again, deserved certainly...

If Amy Cooper is a Canadian citizen (and not a dual Canadian-US citizen), then the reports of her donating to Democrat campaigns are either wrong (the donations could have been made by someone with the same name) or she violated the law to make donations as foreign nationals cannot donate to US elections.

Good sleuthing, maybe she's an American that went to school in Canada? That or since she's skilled white collar, her company sponsored her. That's a pretty common route and her workplace doesn't seem like it's a two-bit mom and pop operation. That slight weird bit in her talk does seem a bit Canadian to me.

Being a dual Canadian-US citizen does seem like one of the best deals around. Make that money in the US, and if that doesn't work out, there's that safety net just a hop away. I was told that by a couple of Quebecois working down in Miami.

Stop recording me, once she said that, and she realized he was not going to stop, thats when she started with, oh yeah, I'll call the cops and say a black man, no wait, I'll say an african american man is threatening me, yeah, thats what I'll do, so by this time, she had to play the part.


dumber than dumb,



those few minutes, like she stated, have destroyed her life, and it has.
Once I saw it on the news this morning, I thought to myself, this chick has just ruined her life for years to come. She really will have to move out of the city, I believe from what i read, she was from Canada



Now, it was as if she was bribing him to a degree, if i call the police, Im going to say there is an african american man.......


hello, like WTF was that all about????how did she know if he was indeed African, I'm not gonna lie, I just would have said a black man, he is a black man, duh????but.......she knew not to say black, but the PC name, african american.....how did she not know if he was hatian, or the like, but chose Africa....not every black person is from African descent....





dumber than dumb

Maybe she will just kill herself.

That'd be terrible. There's also a chance that'd weigh heavily on the person who she had the confrontation with which would also be terrible as there's no guarantee that he's that vindictive. He seemed like such a bubbly and nice guy who loved birds in the documentary and it'd be awful if it hurt him, too. A real mea culpa and good deeds as the aftermath is far, far better.
