They're both a little nuts. Her mostly.
It's harassment in NYS in the 2nd and 3rd Degree and if a police officer were there to witness it, then she would have been arrested. However, if the police had not witnessed it, he could have made a complaint report to have it on file, which is what I would have done.

Personally, I would have had her arrested for menacing, harassment and possible disorderly conduct.

He was a lot nicer about it then I would have been.

People are picked out by crazy people for many random reasons. This one happened to choose the man's race.

In my book he's a whining little baby.

Oh my god. Black people you see how twisted and demented these people think. It's about to be insane out here. It about to be jim crow all over again. Prepare yourself AND you kids for what's coming.

Its not accepted in your circle? You could have fooled me! So different races use the N word around you so that must mean it has nothing to do with skin color?

The things you read on the internet!!!

More to the point about your comment, you make it seem as if the result of a white person uttering the word n igger is somehow worse than a black person saying it. Your supposed proof is an implication that reaction to it would indicate a difference. In reality many leaders in the black community abhor the use of it among fellow blacks. That is especially true when blacks in the entertainment industry use it and it reaches millions of people.
So I believe a logical argument could be made that it is MORE harmful for blacks to say it, than non blacks.
A more accurate statement is "I seem to post in racial themed threads (started by conservatives) for the purpose of setting the record straight". When certain types spew misinformation you're damn straight I'm going to set the record straight! There's no place for ignorance to hide when I'm around...

I happen to live in the "tolerant" SF Bay Area and have been subjected to racism you cannot begin to fathom. When I explain the things I've seen and been subjected too, liberals deny it occurs. Its "You live out there. In Oakland and San Francisco it doesn't occur." When I explain I lived most of my life in Oakland, its one excuse after another.

The fact is plain and simple: The WORLD has made NO inroads to ending racism. Racism is alive and well in this country and continues to flourish. No amount of tree hugging is going to change the human response to different skin color.
I'm a liberal and a white woman and racism is alive and well and NOT confined to one area of this country. Its disgusting to me. It makes me ashamed to be white to hear things like this and of course the many, many other stories that prove the same thing.

The man.....he has no right to video children and post it on the internet.

He needs to find an attorney and a good one......first thing in the morning.
I can tell you if I started my car and some cow like her came bellowing out at me, I would have sat there as long as I pleased BECAUSE THAT IS MY RIGHT. If she didn't want her children filmed she should have shut her face and gone inside. She is the one who created the incident that caused it all. It looked to me that this woman was about to throw that white cup at him, I would have been filming that as well. How is an issue such as the idea that this black man should rush to leave an area because some nasty woman gets upset, if its not put in the limelight.

If this was a trashy unstable looking black guy saying racist thing to a clear headed white person, I don't think we would have the outrage. We would see the guy as a victim of some sort and say give him a break he is uncultured and grew up in a poor environment.
Nah.....you'd say he was representative of all black people.

Some of us actually see individuals, not races. Shame that so many relate to the players in this video as representative of anything based on race. The behavior on the other hand, is a trend. These people represent immaturity and the grievance culture so many have chosen to embrace.
