@Baldimo,

From what I understand that area is a leashed area because it is used for bird watching, dogs like to chase birds and make it difficult for bird watchers to enjoy their hobby. The facts are she was breaking the law and he had every right to ask her to put the leash on.
He didn't have any right to threaten her for not having the dog on its leash.
She had every right to protect herself from him.
Baldimo wrote:lying about the man.
She didn't lie about anything at all. Everything that she said was the truth.
Baldimo wrote:She acted like he threatened to rape her and **** her dead eye sockets, which clearly wasn't the case.
That is incorrect. He did threaten her.
Baldimo wrote:I'm sorry to say, but in a place like NYC, you leash you dog in places where they say to leash your dog, that's is way to cramped of a place to do what you want because you want to be the biggest Karen.
That doesn't give you the right to attack people who break the rules.
If you attempt vigilante action against someone for committing a minor infraction, they have the right to defend themselves from you.
Baldimo wrote:The only thing threatening about such a person was that he was black, and she played that **** up to the max.
The fact that he was making threats made him pretty threatening.
Baldimo wrote:Prior to the police on the phone, she sounded like one of the most smug bitches I have ever heard.
She sounded like she wanted him to go away and stop menacing her.
Baldimo wrote:Her dog wouldn't be running anywhere if it was on a leash, and that was his point.
It doesn't matter what his point was. He threatened her. She had the right to protect herself from him.
Baldimo wrote:Then she put on the panic voice once the cops were on the phone and made the situation out to be much more than it really was.
Her description of the situation was completely accurate. She was right to feel panic considering the way he was menacing her.
Baldimo wrote:If you noticed, once she put her dog on leash, he said thank you and walked away. His comment before the video started was meant to get her to put her dog on leash, nothing more, nothing less.
It doesn't matter why he was threatening her. She still had the right to protect herself from him.
Baldimo wrote:There's that word again but you aren't using it correctly, that lady was more thug like than the dude,
He was the one who threatened her.
Baldimo wrote:People can call the police all they want to,
Not when they lose their jobs for doing so.
People who feel threatened by a minority are not going to want to involve the police when it will result in the loss of their job. They are going to take care of the problem themselves.
And when some innocent person ends up being killed because someone perceives them as a threat, that's going to be your fault.
Baldimo wrote:The funny thing about this is that he actually did nothing wrong, we have free speech do we not? If the police would have showed up, she would have gotten a ticket
I would think that you'd find that situation preferable to her gunning the guy down in self defense.
But by making it impossible for people to call the police, you don't leave them any other option.
Baldimo wrote:and he would have been laughing are her.
He would have likely have gotten a stern lecture about how dumb it is to threaten women in secluded areas.
Baldimo wrote:She also would have likely gotten arrested for filing a false police report.
There was nothing false in her report.
Baldimo wrote:She got everything she had coming to her.
People do not deserve to lose their job for calling the police when they have been threatened.
Baldimo wrote:She wasn't protecting anything,
She was protecting herself from the thug who was menacing her.
Baldimo wrote:calling the police on the guy for calling her out on her bullshit,
She called the police on him for threatening her.
Baldimo wrote:she was 100% wrong in all facets of this discussion.
There is nothing whatsoever wrong about her protecting herself from a dangerous thug.
Baldimo wrote:There is no version of this where the lady is right and the guy is wrong.
Sure there is. He threatened her. She has the right to protect herself.
Baldimo wrote:I don't blame him for his threat,
I won't blame anyone who shoots perceived threats instead of calling the police.
It is reasonable for people to not want to lose their job.
Baldimo wrote:people like her won't do as asked, they will make it about them and attempt to get others in trouble.
If people don't want to get into trouble, they shouldn't threaten women in secluded areas.
Baldimo wrote:It's people like her that are ruining the world and making it more difficult to live in tightly confined cities.
You've done more harm to the world than she has.
Misperceived threats are likely to be killed now because you've made people afraid to call the police when they feel threatened.
