It's almost as if bearing false witness is against some commandment or something.

The Karen video shows how unfair and anti-white liberals and the media are. Was she in the wrong for calling the cops on this guy and acting all hysterical? Yeah—that was an overreaction. But here's what Tyrone (or whatever his name is—I guess since any white woman acting annoying is a Karen we can just call any annoying black man a Tyrone) said about the encounter when he posted the original video on Facebook:

So you're a woman, and a man you don't know comes up to you, tells you to put your dog on a leash (fine, understandable), and then says "Look, if you're going to do what you want, I'm going to do what I want, but you're not going to like it." What kind of veiled threat is that? And then he tries to give your dog what she could reasonably assume are poisoned treats, since who the **** walks around with dog treats in their pocket to deal with "intransigence"? The guy sounds like a weirdo, and if you're a woman by yourself, I can understand how you would be rattled by some random guy like that. So it sounds like he threatened her with the "I'm going to do what I want, but you're not going to like it" and then threw out some treats she thought might kill her dog. But the media, and every reddit post I've seen about this stupid dust-up between two clowns, makes no mention of this weird aggressive behavior from Tyrone. But she gets absolutely crucified for saying he's African-American. (She's not being crucified for calling the cops—if the video were exactly the same except she never mentions his race, nobody ever hears about. Instead it's national news and the mob won't be satisfied till she kills herself.)

Moving on to the other racial headline of the day: the Minneapolis death. That was outrageous and the cops involved (I only could see two in the video, but it sounds like there were four) should be in prison. At least cop kneeling on him and the Asian cop should be in prison for murder. It's just as contemptible as when those two cops made that kid crawl in a hallway and play Simon Says for his life and killed him. Maybe this Minneapolis death wouldn't have become a story if the Tyrone in the video who got killed were white, but I'm glad it's getting the outrage it deserves, and I hope those cops spend at least a decade each in prison.

If she would have told the police what he did instead of saying he made death threats you might have a point.

But you're right. He was being a weirdo and she was being a weirdo and when two weirdos collide the universe changes forever.

As far as the cops murdering the AA guy, good luck getting any of them in jail. We'll be lucky if that guys no on some other force in a year.

Tyrone itt. it is pretty funny how the maga crew falls in line behind a liberal Mayor Pete donor when she does some racism.

but yes, the guy did not act exactly perfectly so eff him right. she should be able to do whatever she wants bc hes kinda weird and didnt have the perfect words and tone to handle her.

its also funny how every single action of the black guy is construed in the worst possible way. like, what he said could be considered threatening but in this context and with his tone it was obv that "what she wont like" was being videoed and put on social media.

further, somi is gonna allege that the guy has poisonous treats like wtf. I come across ppl with dog treats all the time. many outdoor workers carry them and businesses. many people at parks carry them. people like dogs! but when its a black guy, ppl like somi try to find the most malicious interpretation of every action.

not that these clowns will ever change so theres really no point. its just like, you would think this would be a pretty obv case where everyone agrees she was way in the wrong. but nope.

I do think she is getting way too harsh of treatment. everyone is piling on her bc shes an easy target. but she is completely irrelevant and has no power so its just performative. in the end everyone feels better but theres just as much racism as before and her life is ****ed up.

She threatens him with I'm going to call the police and tell them an African-American is threatening my life when it is patently obvious he is doing no such thing. That's a conscious misrepresentation of reality with the goal of generating a dangerous situation for him. She repeats it several times, and does in fact make the call, where, while fussing with her dog, she claims, in a suddenly agitated voice, to be experiencing threats in a situation that does not exist, and she knows does not exist.

When she tells him she's going to make the call, there's no reason to "profile" him. He's certainly aware that he is black.

In any case, your answer is intentionally dishonest in the same sort of way, so you should understand fairly well how this stuff works.

It's far more obviously racist than the Arbery thing. It's hard to imagine a more obvious display of racism. If you can't see that, and can only see that it makes sense to be scared because he's black, the conclusion is obvious.

Her implied threat is I'm calling the cops, telling them you're black, and you know what they do to black guys.

Then she lies her ass off about the situation.

If it were just some old white guy bird watching you'd just say old white guys are weird like that.

Dog owners tend to react violently to suggestions that they should obey clearly posted rules.

It's pretty dominated by white people in the US but there are plenty of non-whites, especially in South America.

If we have to assume that Karen meant the police would come to the park and kindly execute him on her behalf then it's reasonable to presume a malicious passive-aggressive threat from his words and actions as well. Not taking her side but this isn't as one-sided as many argue it to be.

Stop lying.

That was the worst of several negative outcomes her threat was based on.

Either he made a direct threat to her off camera as she claimed (in which case she was correct to make that call) or he didn't.

If he did she needed to double down after the video went viral. But she didn't.

So now we're left to assume that she effed up.

Moral of the story : If you're breaking the rules and get caught just say 'sorry' and do the right thing. Even if you're called out by a bird watcher (who would have thought bird watchers are rules nits).

“I’m going to tell them there’s an African-American man threatening my life,”

That's a death threat dummy.

Has it been determined who the guy is? He sounds African African (when in doubt guess Nigerian or Kenyan) but the tweet is coming apparently from the guy's sister who would appear to be an American and is involved in the entertainment industry. It's possible I'm onto something here.

I guess I have to brush up on derogatory racist terminology of the day.

I am guessing calling a white woman "a Karen" is analogous to calling a black woman certain names that would cause you all to be outraged and compel WN to immediately delete the post (at a minimum).

Oddly enough I have a black aunt named Karen. She might have to consider a name change.

Apparently there is agreement before she called the police he said to her,

"Look, if you're going to do what you want, I'm going to do what I want, but you're not going to like it." And then he tried to feed her dog from food he had on him.

Even CNN admits this is what happened. Ironically, if it wasn't for the racial component, the media (if they even bothered to report this which I doubt they would), would probably be spinning this as him threatening her and Crossnerd and Max would be in giving us rape stats.

I really don't get why you guys allow yourselves to get so emotionally attached to these kind of stories without having a clue what actually happened, or even really caring much what actually happened. . I understand that is what the media wants you to do, but I don't know why you are all so eager to oblige them.

I, too, had to look it up.

Not sure it's a race thing as much as a personality thing based on those definitions, but could be wrong.

Edit: having looked at a couple of the other definitions there, yeah, seems like a bit of a race thing.

His veiled threat comes from his version of events not hers.

Basically he baited her like a world class pro and she fell for it.

we dont have to assume that. I dont think anyone reasonable assumes that. but she used "African American" as a threat.

Im really sorry man...but here i stopped reading ''She threatens him...''

Also...Mr.Black was explicitly looking for ''loose walking dog owners''.



But hey...feel free to jump on the #ustoo bandwagon...imo.

So I was pretty off. Actual American American African American, Christopher Cooper and board member of NYC Audubon Society.
This is him. (And I didn't vet this twitter account so hoping it isn't from a white supremacist site but I'll assume it isn't).

When I was in West Virigina a couple weeks ago I had some guys who looked some rednecks come up to me and wonder what me and my friend we're doing-- we had taken a little side road and ended up on their property and there were Blue-winged warblers and American Redstarts around. They were fine with us being there--it was a guy and his son and they were going to be shooting guns (also not the best for birds)-- but the son just glared at me like he had a real attitude problem.

There was no threat on her life though, he was going to harass her via her dog.

He was baiting her. I'm not really liking this guy but she still falsely accused him in a way that may very well have caused him bodily harm. And all because she felt entitled to let her dog run wild and refused to act like a member of society and correct her mistake when called on it.

Sorry. Not feeling sorry for her even though I'm sure his day will come too.

As they say, play stupid games, win stupid prizes. She should have been wise enough not to play. Maybe next time.

This sounds about right. This is the sort of stuff that happens when two people are out looking for trouble-- they end up finding each other.
Nowadays though they'll both end up with 100k gofundmes unfortunately.
