    Is that what they mean or is that what you say they mean? Had to ask considering your history of putting words to peoples post they don't mean or sometimes even say :wierdface:

    We've learned that racism has been exposed in NY, and it's white-on-black, non-violent, and of a type that only hurts feelings.

    Racism isn't much a problem in NY then. Good to know.

    I don't see racism here. I see a woman who is a bit of a hypochondriac, reacting poorly to being caught breaking the law. Although I would say this might have ended more peacefully if he had not whipped out his phone and started taking video. That would be very uncomfortable, and certainly escalated the situation. Not an excuse for her claiming he was threatening her though. She seemed emotionally unhinged for sure, but I think the reaction would have been the same if he had been white, and done the exact same things.

    Go review the thread on Arbery thing, they recognized him from previous encounter. So why do black people get to confront white people and it is not racist but if a white person confronts a black person it is automatically racism?

    Suspected in one. I can imagine had the races been reversed here it would be the guy being attacked as racist and the left/MSM jumping to defend her.

    I don't know what was said, that is true. I am basing my statement off what the consensus is saying that he questioned her about the dog being off the leash and/or offered her dog a treat.

    He was only suspected by those two morons who chased him down with weapons. They of course had no proof of him doing anything illegal. Unless of course you consider jogging an illegal activity.

    He was recognized.

    And again reverse the roles here and a white person questioning a black person immediate cries of racism.

    I saw what I saw today on TV all about this and I was plain sick about it. There are too many whites that hate blacks and that is not right.

    I believe she felt threatened by him and was probably having a panic attack. He was being a vigilante busybody and crossed the line into threatening behavior when he said "you're not going to like it" before enticing her kid/dog with a treat. They both should have known better.

    Is she racist or just an asshat who thought she could use those racist New York cops to get her way. After all the mayor has been telling everyone New York cops are racist for a while now.

    its perfectly ok to ask people to leash their dog, its the law in NYC.

    as for her feeling "threatened", its total bullshit, especially since SHE comes at him in a threatening manner.

    she felt soo threatened that she approached the man in a threatening manner, demanding he stop recording her.

    she is a drama queen who has probably done this before.

    Yes sorry, I use logic, not emotion, when analyzing a situation.
