Yea, you just might be right since the Minneapolis police just killed George Floyd the same day. |
Well, Amy Cooper will. |
But I want to hear more about the “Don’t Tread On Me” flag she bought after Hobby Lobby asked her to wear a mask! |
|
My takeaway from this (among other things):
I’m going to make sure my kids understand that it’s not a crime for them to be recorded in public. I think the woman genuinely believed that being recorded in public by a stranger is somehow in and of itself illegal or assault or something. You can be recorded in public. You can record police. Govern yourself accordingly. |
I answered your question last evening, not knowing about my Brother, George Floyd in Minneapolis > https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/883882.page So yes, as I said, these kinds of things regularly happen to Black people in America. Mr. Cooper is way fortunate that he didn't suffer the same fate as Mr. Floyd (which I believe was Amy's intention). |
| How do people think its ok for the man to set up the situation and try to take her dog from her? If that was a child and he offered the child candy, would that be ok? By his account, he was setting up the situation, being a bully and who knows what he was trying to do by trying to take the dog from her with dog treats. If that was a child, we'd call him a potential kidnapper. He set it up completely and if you look at his words, something is seriously off about the man. He was not bird watching and clearly has done this before or was out to take someone's dog as who carries treats around if you don't have a dog. |
| I find the term Karen and Becky offensive. What if there was a Leroy or Tyrone? Just as offensive. |
You tell your kids to run from a man like that. He had treats and was calling the dog over. If that was your kid with you and he did that to your kid, what would you think? Its not ok to threaten someone by videoing them. She was in an area alone and her dog was was not bothering anyone. His bird watching story made no sense. |
I do too. |
Go away, you racist troll. Everything you write is a lie. Her stupid unleashed dog was tearing through a protected area. She is the one who threatened him, and she followed through with a fake 911 call. |
It's not like he came into her backyard or anything. They're in a public place where it's clearly required that she keep the dog on a leash. Maybe she should keep the dog on a leash? She'd have solved a lot of problems that way, wouldn't she have? |
I am reporting you. |
Pretty sure if the dog were a kid she'd already be in jail for strangling it. Try harder? |
That's not what is offensive here, Susan. |
Ah yes, the Audubon board member, a well-known NYC birder, was probably faking bird watching and trying to steal random dogs. Very tricky! You’re a troll at best and just dumb at worst. I’m sorry you’re stuck with being either. |
