[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it interesting that this thread is 87 pages long and is being dominated by people who are offended that a white woman got in trouble for a taped interaction with a black man during which she called the cops on the black man, but there are only 51 pages on the "I can't breathe" thread about George Floyd, a black man who was actually killed by a cop.

The Amy Cooper incident has really triggered the non-liberals on this thread. It truly is fascinating. The whole taped interaction has been dissected to death on this thread with the right-wingers heavily invested in denying that Amy was using any white privilege and stating or implying that the black birdwatcher was the problem.

Even the poor dog, that was so clearly mistreated that it was RECLAIMED by the rescue she got him from, apparently was "uncomfortable" and "only choking for 3-4 seconds" according to conservatives. Fox News has rewired your brains or something. I can't think of another explanation. [/quote]

I am very liberal and I think they were both wrong but he clearly set up this situation and was looking to provoke her.  He did and was successfully in his plan to ruin her life.  Congrats to him.  Instead of walking away and finding another spot, he engaged her and provoked her until she snapped.  They were in an isolated area and she was clearly scared of him.  She was wrong in her racist statements but she was right to call the police and ask him to stop recording her.  Where is the rest of the video of the interactions before and after.... he only shared a small part.

He was trying to take her dog.  He was clear he called over the dog AND offered the dog treats so she was trying to prevent him from taking the dog.  She was not intentionally choking him.  Would you let your dog or child go to a stranger provoking and recording you?  Of course not.  [/quote]

I agree with you, but I'm a conservative. Well, I'm actually a moderate who these days considers myself a conservative because the left went so far. But it does seem like you're on the wrong side  :wink:

I think she was more wrong than he was, though, both for the dog off leash and the specific references to his race in her threats, even though he clearly had a chip on his shoulder.  Neither of them were behaving like well adjusted people.[/quote]

(AND the animal abuse of course!)[/quote]

That was not animal abuse.  [b]She was trying to keep the dog away from him and keep him with her.[/b][/quote]

The simpler option would have been to clip the leash on the dog then make her phone call.  But that would have meant he won the argument to leash the dog.  Rather than take the leash that was in her hand, she was choking the dog by its collar.[/quote]

She held the collar.  That is equal to a leash.[/quote]
