I mean, she is vile, don’t get me wrong, the gentleman was so measured, but clearly she was unhinged.
UMM no. Her dog walker confirmed he walked the same dog for her TWO YEARS AGO.
Mental breakdown my butt. She deliberated decided to off-leash her dog in Central Park and when called on it - decided to both harass that person and get the police to do the same.
He was recording her and harassing her.

Do you know how many dogs freak out over POC? He’s a bird watcher and in the park a lot. He probably has had instances where a dog has started to become agitated and I’M GUESSING he asks if he can give the dog a treat to chill them out. In this case, he saw the dog’s windpipe was being crushed by her behavior. It is so distressing to see what is happening to that dog. I’m only addressing the dog and treat issue here. Not the fact that she became completely unhinged. Every single bit of her behavior was sickening.

And yes because she’s white because of the fact that she said specifically I’m going to tell them an African-American man is threatening my life. This is sooooo tiring.

Nonsense.
I would want to see the interaction before. We don't hear him asking to put the dog back on the leash. She asked him to stop recording her and he refused. That is threatening and harassing her. He was setting this situation up.

If you look at his account of the incident on CNN, he was deliberately bating her and clearly does this a lot as he carries dog treats. He was trying to take her dog from her via bribing it with treats. He purposely provoked her and only recorded part of it but by his account he was as inappropriate as she was. Both were in the wrong but he clearly set it up.
FFS. He wasn't trying to take her dog. He was trying to show her that with her dog off leash it would easily run away from her and go to someone else.
He's a birdwatcher in his regular birdwatching spot. He probably regularly runs into dogs off leash. Carrying dog treats is a tactic; people do it do so they have some leverage with an unfamiliar, unleashed dog.

By way of example, let me share my teenage son's experience yesterday - he was verbally harassed leaving a park in our neighborhood by some older white men. My husband, who is not white, witnessed this, it seemed totally unprovoked, and he confronted the men. It ended without violence or police, but even the confrontation was shocker since my husband and son are both about the most conflict-averse people I've ever met.
We later learned from my son's friend that other kids they knew had been in an argument with the older men over some recreational equipment at the park. My son spent a few minutes sitting with his friends and they were laughing about the argument. They were sarcastic and probably even mocking. Should the white men have harassed my son when he was leaving the park? No, of course not - he hadn't even had any contact with them. But he wasn't entirely blameless either.
Everyone is a little nuts these days. I think that Central Park woman was wrong and what she did was dangerous. But without seeing what preceded the snippet, I'm hesitant to call for her firing and imprisonment (as many, many people on Twitter already have done.)

He never said he felt threatened. He said he wanted the dog leashed in the Ramble, as it is supposed to be -- with the regulation posted -- and she was refusing to comply with the rules.
The Ramble is the primary bird-viewing spot in Central Park, and he's a birder. Birds will not stay around if there is an unleashed dog, and their primary predators in urban life are pet cats and dogs. He didn't feel threatened. He just wanted to see the birds, and that's what the Ramble is for -- not for exercising your dog off-leash.

Yes, stuff like this happens, although luckily nothing super blatant like this has happened to me (I'm a woman, though). However, less dramatic incidents has happened to people I know--for example, my brother tried to make a return at a store and was accused of stealing. That sort of stuff is relatively minor, but the stress effect is cumulative. Anyway, this stuff doesn't surprise us.

YESSSSS
And you wonder why so many black men have high blood pressure, racism affects your mental and subsequently, your physical health.

Did her parents and family teach her that she can accuse a black man of rape or sexual violence and people will be sympathetic to her? What is very true that if it was not pandemic situation where people are hesitant to come near other people, police would have likely believed her. As it were, she was the one who was coming close to the man instead of him getting close to her.
