What utter hubris of that woman to call the police on the bird watcher when she was doing something illegal! She needs to be cited for having her dog off leash at a minimum.


What does Harvard have to do with it?


Because if he was homeless or on probation you would have said he deserved to be cited by the police for doing...nothing. And correcting her for illegally running her dog off-leash.

Me?? Heck no, I'm an ultra liberal who read your post as if somehow he's more valuable than Ahmaud Arbery.


The you here was impersonal and I didn't originally post the Harvard note. Its important to note however that being of a socioeconomic class didn't protect this man from racism from a woman who is an immigrant.


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.


Birders constantly run into issues with entitled bird people. I've not gone back to Huntley Meadows to bird because of the interactions with off leash dogs with no owners in sight. The last time I was there two dobermans ran up on me, one of them growling. My friend and I left and I've never been back. I would absolutely tell a person to leash their dog. The location they were in is big for birders and there have been massive flights of birds recently. I take pepper spray with me if I'm going in certain areas to bird. I would not have offered the dog a treat but it is such a small thing to focus on compared to the dramatic acting job she did because he told her to leash her dog. It really comes down to entitlement.

Leash your damn dogs people.


You can not bait a dog who is on a leash. She should not be allowed to have a dog.

Not a NP because I posted about 12 pages ago, but the "Karen" meme absolutely refers to a white woman. It's a stereotype.

Irony is, HE was displaying "Karen" behavior by trying to police another adult. You don't do that.


It's policing someone's behavior to draw their attention to posted rules they are breaking?

That's just being part of a community.

Why do people get so angry and defensive?


Entailed snowflakes don't like to be confronted with their entitled snowflakiness. It makes them have to confront the fact that the world includes other people besides themselves. Like, how dare others.

It's safe to say that we know that for certain. She has spoken to the press and that didn't come up. Sorry.


DP. Also, in the video she walks up to him and tells him to stop filming her. He asks her to back up and not get so close to him. If he had threatened to kill or hurt her before the filming, I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have been acting that way. Her whole threat of calling the police is clearly a taunt because she doesn't like what he's doing.


Yes, if I am actually feeling threatened physically by someone, I don't approach them with my arm and voice both raised. That's aggression.

She's still eligible for deportation if she's not a citizen.

I would say that calling someone a "Karen" is more prejudice than racism. Still not good but there is a difference.

If I were black in this country, i'd always have my camera ready. Not to harass others, but to protect myself against false accusations, which seem to occur with terrible regularity, and can end up with deadly consequences.
