The account he posted prior to the recording clearly stated he was trying to get the dog to come to him with dog treats.  Who carries dog treats and bribes dogs to come to him especially if he is scared of dogs or feels threatened by the dog.  The entire situation makes no sense.  But, how would you feel if someone was trying to get your dog by offering treats?[/quote]

You are not rational.  He was not trying to take her dog.  He was trying to get her to control her dog.  He was going to offer treats, not to take the dog, but to show her that she had no control over her unleashed dog and that she needed to do something to get control of her dog.  He had no interest in taking her dog.  Notice that she did what she was supposed to do BY LAW, she took the dog's collar to control the dog and eventually put the leash that was in her hand on.  She was another typical entitled dog owner who thinks that those pesky rules that are posted are for other people and not them.  All sorts of reasons.  She complains that the dog park is closed.  He tells her that if she just leaves the park and crosses the street, she can let her dog roam unleashed there and she says that it's too dangerous.  Sorry, but the laws are that that part of the park does not allow dogs off leash.  If she needs to let her dog get exercise, she needs to find a legal place to do it.

As for this woman, I always love how people go on racist rants and then inevitably they always try to say that that isn't really them, that they aren't racist.  Bull***t.  I've met plenty of non-racist people. When they get afraid or anxious or angry or threatened, they react, they panic, they argue, they yell, but they do it without the racist bigotry.  Only bigots introduce race like this woman did.  She wanted to be able to break the law and do as she felt fit.  When she couldn't get the man to leave her alone, she threatened him.  You can watch it escalate.  First she tells him to put down the phone, then she says she'll call the police, then she says she'll call the police and lie that he, the black man, is attacking her, a white woman, in the park; and then she does exactly that.  It's fortunate that the black man is recording this so that he can prove that she was completely willing to have him arrested and possibly hurt by the police.  She orders him to stop recording, which is not going to happen since clearly it is the only way to prove that she has absolutely no qualms with making a hateful bigoted threat to him since she is willing to completely fabricate a story that a black man is threatening and attacking her, a white woman, which she knows could get him arrested, hurt or even shot to death just because she feels entitled to let her dog run off-leash illegally.

There are many people like this.  You know what their normal racism looks like?  These are the people who in broad daylight, when there are other people walking down the same street, cross the street or move away in a park from a black person, just because they are black.  These are the people who when a black person walks into the coffee bar they are at, instinctively clutch their purse or move it someplace safer.  Or the people who are hiring and find all sorts of reasons to dismiss the resume with the more ethnic sounding name.  And on and on.  The subconscious systemic racism that identifies minorities, in particular, black men, as dangerous or criminal continues to be a major problem.  Racial profiling is a huge problem as the news clearly shows.  People like this need to have a huge spotlight cast on them and have this type of racism shown for the insidious problem that it is.

At a minimum, I think that the dog rescue society needs to take that dog away from her permanently.  And I hope that she has negative repercussions in her life, whether she has disciplinary action taken against her at work or whether she is charged with making a false police report, since her call was clearly a false report.   The tape shows how there was no attack,and likely no threat, since if you are being threatened by a man holding a camera phone, the normal response is to retreat rather than to advance on the person.  She was the one making threats, which his why the true victim was saying "Please don't come any closer".   [/quote]
