What a POS

POS, sure. But it didn't really look like he had any intention of fighting. He said do you want to fight and took a step or two out of his car, but it looked like he stopped before the other person got involved. While one can never know how it would have played out, it did not seem like a situation where there was going to be an actual physical altercation.

Gee whiz. The solidarity amongst some white people is unmatched! Even when it's clear as day your brethren are wrong--- they are somehow still made right. If it weren't so disgusting, the unity would be admirable.

What's up with people protecting obvious racism?

Calling some a POS shit is hardly showing solidarity with someone or protecting him. I'm assuming if someone calls you a POS or said you acted like a POS, you wouldn't be pleased or view that as approval of your behavior. I sure know that if someone is expressing solidarity or support for me, I would like them to do it in some way other than calling me a POS.

Whether said POS actually intended to or would have harmed the woman is an entirely separate question.

Calling him a POS but then turning around and rationalizing what he did voided your POS statement. You only added the POS part to make it appear that you weren't ok with what he did-- you know, in case your IP address is being tracked or something. Know one calls someone a POS and follows it up with an excuse for the person. POS is a full sentence with a period at the end.

I didn't rationalize what he did at all. Nor did I excuse what he did in any manner. You are simply making stuff up to better fit your narrative.

You're kidding right.

Every other sentence in that thread is 'she felt threatened!' Meanwhile the only thing he did was ask her to back away and offered her dog treats. Someone even said the treats could be poisoned! Hypocrites.

I was referring to this thread. I haven't seen anyone in this thread criticize the birder. You have no particular reason to believe anyone comment in this thread has made comments in the other.

Of course she felt threatened. He was screaming at her and calling her names. GTFOH.

Where did I say she didn't feel threatened? What I said is that what he did may not be criminal. Very different things.

Before you tell someone to GTFOH, you should bone up on your critical reading skills.

I'm not even sure which incident you're talking about anymore. In the birder incident, there was no reason for the woman to feel threatened. The guy asked in a calm way and never raised his voice. In Bethesda, the guy was screaming and calling her names. VERY DIFFERENT.

Something similar happened to me in Bethesda (I'm a woman). I look like a Latina, but I'm not. I was in a crowded garage downtown Bethesda and pulled into a parking space. A man who thought the same space belonged to him although there was no physical way for him to pull into that space started SCREAMING at me, cursing, gesturing, signaling that he is going to get out of his car to attack me physically. Another man spetted in and told the guy to get in the car and leave. It was immediately done.

Two things, piss me off about both incidents. The racial component, but also men attacking women thinking that we will just back down. However, these p8ssies back down really fast when a man steps in because, as predicted, they are not brave or dangerous at all.

What should the response be? Public outcry/shaming? Him losing his job? Criminal charges? Something else.

All of the above. Laws need to be updated to include punishment for this kind of behavior.

But just like the bystanders did here, film it and publically shame these racist morons.

Thankfully we have the 1st amendment to override such laws, if they were to be passed. The government doesn't need to be policing speech, no matter how idiotic it is.
