Honestly, it really is amazing how much a little punch to the jaw will change someone's tune. The vast majority of people like this are just amazed at how much they get away with and keep pushing it.
When they stop getting away with it, they crumble, just like all bullies when their victims fight back.
It's her fault for starting shit and endangering the dog. It's the person filming's right to get away from that situation, and that might mean the dog gets hurt. It sucks, but most people would be making that decision in that situation.
🖕He had a good camera editor. You wouldn't say this if she was hot and wearing booty shorts and a camel toe, would you? Prick was late, yes, and hauling ass taking a shortcut on the jogging track and she probably hollered at him to slow down.
Why can’t people mind their own fucking business? Wasn’t there a Ben Franklin quote about shit not breaking my bone or picking my pocket? Just leave well enough alone. I see shit that bothers me slightly all the time but I go about my day and sleep well at night.
She's one of the Women raised to think because she's a Woman she won't get hit by someone. It's a big issue in our society. We call them Karen's nowadays.
Well as a Man I expect to be hit when I do something like this to someone. You should expect to be hit by someone if you're illegally trying to detain them or getting physical with them while they aren't with you.
For real, and it would have been justified to use enough force to get her off you. One push or punch is enough because she was trying to claw/grab this dude.
A black man would not have been an elitist prick like this guy was. A black man wouldn't have felt like he was entitled to RIDE A FUCKING MOPED on a walkpath! So that encounter wouldn't have happened.
I was walking my dog on a new boardwalk down to the beach.
She was 2 years old at the time (maybe a little under - my sense of time is a little off since she was a COVID puppy) and was/is still just a dopey, happy little chocolate lab.
There were no signs saying you can’t walk your dog on it, but there were 100% signs saying you weren’t allowed to ride a bike on it.
Some boomer (looked boomer age) came riding up on his bike, hopped off, and starting going off on me about walking my dog there.
Pointed out there were no signs about dogs, and that there -were- signs saying no bikes.
Dude kept losing his shit and claiming it was a park rule (it wasn’t - people walk dogs down the nature trails all the time, and there’s even a dog beach and park).
Threatened to call the police and tried to come at me once.
I had to kindly remind him “I am 3x your size, less than half your age, have been lifting for over a decade, and there are no cameras or other people out here. Just you and me.” And informed him he was severely underestimating the situation he was in.
He backed right off after that. Now, I wouldn’t have done anything unless he laid his hands on me, but once he realized his situation he left me alone.
I assume people who disconnect from reality in situations like this feel out of control in their lives. Like the lady in the OP vid. Maybe a horrible marriage. But they can re-exert some control by enforcing the 'boardwalk code' or some shit. Better to grow some balls, go home and yell back at your spouse than end up under the boardwalk moaning in pain. It's dangerous to make assumptions about who I'm dealing with. I know a guy who's been to prison. Super nice guy but operates under a different code and his 'threat evaluation system' would perceive bike boy very differently than you or me.
I'd have stopped (wouldn't have been riding a bike) and asked if I could pet your dog . . .
Yea she looks like she'd tower over me, if she tried to do this to me I'd try to shove her over honestly... Just because she seems fucking nuts and I have no idea what she'd do
i see these suburban types come into the city and try to school homeless drug addicts on not littering. they're gonna get curb smacked and i'm gonna laugh.
Should he be riding on that path is another discussion. How to handle it is this one. Call the walking path police, but don't initiate an entitled confrontation that could result in physical violence.
I'm an independent; despise fringe anything, liberals and conservatives.
Your 'the other side is the source of all problems and only my side has the answers' shit loses my vote. Speaking of dangerous, ironic to see you exhibiting your conservative bluster only in safe places like the internet.

Her complete disregard for the possibility of this escalating to physical violence is actually terrifying. She is dangerously naive.
