I'm not agreeing with her freedom of movement being impeded. It may have looked like that to her at the time so she said something but it should have been clear they were not stopping her from leaving.

Very sad indeed, but completely understandable.
When so much is at stake (your job, reputation, sanity and physical integrity), many will choose not to take a chance.

Not when Mom made it clear she was not and the white lady immediately got into her car. It may well be that the White lady perceived it but that does not make it true and the immediate outcome makes it clear such a perception was wrong.

At the 4:20 mark he hits the key point and I will bold it here for everyone, because it is FACT

If this was a black woman using a gun to protect herself from the same black women, this never would have made the news. And he is correct. It ONLY made the news because it was a white woman with a gun pointed at black women. This tells us everything we need to know about what the medias intentions are. Why do people keep falling for the media propaganda?

The white woman doesn't have to be perfectly right in hindsight, just reasonable in the moment.

That's all I needed to know. Thanks.

And the fact, which you appear unable to understand, is that the White lady attacked with a gun. I do not accept that the attack was racist. But it was still an attack.
We know for a fact the black women considered everything the white woman did was racially motivated. Their 'evidence' for that is the woman did not say 'sorry' or excuse me. You choose to say the entire incident, from bump to gun, 'may well have been a racially motivated attack.' You're totally biased in interpreting and presenting the whole incident and how the parties behaved.

I give the black women credit for one thing --- they haven't yet alleged anyone used the n word.

If it had been the opposite - white mother + daughters vs black couple with a gun, what do you think the medias' reactio would have been?

more nonsense. It had a racial tinge that made it newsworthy. If all had been white it would not have made the new. And if the Black teenager was not involved it would likely have received much less attention.

So it is the total circumstances of the event that made it newsworthy. And the racial situation was part of that.

Yeah, a lot of kidnappers love to tell you they aren't impeding their victim's freedom of movement.

We should believe them.
