[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Both were nuts.  He was threatening her by videoing her for no reason.  That dog wasn't bothering anyone and I'm scared of dogs.  There was no reason for him to approach her and video it so he was setting up the situation and zero respect for him.  She handled it very badly but has a right to feel threatened by recording her.[/quote]

Recording someone is not a threat. Maybe just a threat when a black man does it?[/quote]

According to his own post, he told 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." Then he produced a dog treat -- because apparently he walks around with dog treats "I carry for such intransigence" and called for her dog to come to him.

I do believe she grossly overreacted and should not have had the dog offleash, let alone called the police and told them she feared a black man.. However, I also believe this man may have a chip on his shoulder and went looking for trouble. And I "I'm going to do what I want, but you're not going to like it" could clearly be perceived as a threat and calling over the dog could be perceived as either an attempt to abduct or poison the animal.
I also believe that the people on Twitter whose first reactions were to dox her and post where she is employed and call on Twitter to "do your thing" to get her fired (she has been placed on administrative leave" is a disgusting form of mob justice and if this lady would be justified in suing the hell out of anyone who encouraged that. I would.

You aren’t serious. I hope.
