Even I won't completely do that. And the police have been called on me before. sometimes you have to say "i'm not taking crap from anyone". You have to pick your battles, but in some cases, you must stand up for yourself.

This is true. Especially for white liberals. Conservatives on the other hand will shoot you. Example Arbery in Georgia.

I'm noticing a pattern. Looks like the DNC and Media Matters will be stoking race riots this summer to create more chaos before the election.

Fortunately, I heard a prediction that there will be more hurricanes this season so the rain and wind should put a 'damper' on that.

By the way, why is it people who riot and loot are called protesters, not criminals, but owners of those looted businesses are criminals for wanting to open up?

I am not thrilled or would be thrilled if someone called my dog and offered treats without consulting me first.


that wasnt his place, he also, wasn't 100 percent...

Has Q told you who's responsible for the hurricanes yet!? I mean, I know he doesn't actually ever speak in anything but riddles, but fingers crossed he has SOME idea who's responsible for the upcoming weather.

My reply was to your comment, not his. I don't know this guy from Adam, and he could be the nicest person in the world and a wonderful birder, but I don't know that and neither does anyone else. His actions were weird and her's were too, but neither should have had their lives ruined over it. So far he's smelling like a rose, but I have a feeling he's going to be regretting his sister's decision to post that video. He may experience some blowback too.

She probably leaves a trail of people she's treated like garbage along her way to be a VP living on the upper west side.

This thread just goes to show you how far certain people will go to stretch reality to defend a white person in a confrontation with a black person.

But even they know that this guy was totally in the right...again unleashing your dog in an area with bird feeders to attract birds is a total ******* move. There are plenty of dog parks she could have let it run free. It's worse than not picking up after your dog and people call each other out on that all..the...damned...time, without having to get the authorities involved.

And even her defenders understand that her aggressive body language and threat about what she was going to tell 911 weren't the actions of someone who felt threatened. These were the actions of someone who felt embarrassed and frustrated that their adversary wasn't backing off and letting her win. And wanted to use the police as a sword rather than a shield.
Yeah, he's so magnanimous. I'm sure he had nothing to do with his sister posting that video.

We all know that the Twitter mob needs victims.

God these people are awful. They harassed her employer and the dog shelter and now are digging up all this stuff about her and posting it on the Internet. All for what? An argument in the park that in the past no one would have ever heard about. It's disgusting.

The woman and the guy the woman called law enforcement on both have the same exact last name. Now that's tap. Figure the odds.
