...if she thought that he could be an intruder, felt she was in danger in any way...I wonder why she would confront him, rather than just contact security...

...and follow him up onto his floor with no one else around...

Exactly. I don't care who you are, male, female, black, white, if I'm walking to my own home and some stranger starts demanding information from me I would be telling them to **** off

She is responsible for her own security, and her checking the guy had a key fob was part of that. They were told in their contracts that each and every resident was responsible for security

He is a resident
No threat to her


He was correct to Film it all on his HD phone
and show her he has the door fob at the last moment.


She can move out
for her own safety

What is she after his body?

[Crimson Dynamo]

The guy handled it all wrong. His attitude stunk to high heaven. He could have diffused the situation immediately. What a nasty person he must be - filming it? says it all really

Did he? She called the cops on him after he walked into his own apartment. What if she was a nut and made a false report?

Toles wrote that roughly 30 minutes after the encounter, police knocked on his door. He said Mueller called the authorities on him for entering his own apartment.

Attitudes like yours are the reason why black people have to try twice as hard for the same that white people have. Even if they are the victims, you will overanalyse their actions to place blame at their feet in ways that you wouldn't had this situation been reversed.

If he didn't film it then he wouldn't have proof of wrongdoing and anything he said wouldn't have been believed. It says it all that you are saying this guy is nasty for filming harassment he has endured but you say nothing of the person who blocked him from his own building and followed him to his door and then called the police on him for doing so. Where is your condemnation for the white person in the wrong and why do you constantly look to blame the black person for entering his own apartment?

proof of wrong doing, dont make me laugh

if a resident cant easlity and with some charm and humility explain to another that they are a resident then it stinks

He could have easily and without drama diffused the situation - all he could think of was YOutube and getting in the media

awful

Ah, a white person calls the police on a black person for existing and you don't think that's wrong? Says it all really.

You're just proving me right there about how black people have to go above and beyond to be treated with some semblance of respect (but rarely the same respect a white person would get in the same situation). A white person in this situation loses their temper and people get over it, they try to empathise with them. A black person gets harassed and gets the police called on him for entering his own apartment and it's his fault for not putting up with this racist bint's attitude and actions.

You basically gave a list of conditions that the black person in this situation had to comply to to be seen as a victim yet you defend the white person for following this man to his apartment and then calling the police on him for no reason after she sees him enter his own apartment. Why the double standards LT? Can you explain it?

She looks a bit like Amy Schumer and funnily enough they're both idiots!.

And I don't understand why people keep saying "why didn't he show his fob" . Why should he ??? He lives there and she wasn't asking him politely she was being confrontational plus she blocked the door way which was childish & unreasonable.

She never thought she was in danger, otherwise why follow him like a crazy stalker ! . If she's worried due to criminal activity, wasn't she scared she'd get attacked?? that's why I don't believe her bs .

Makes you wonder if a group of friends came back to the apartment complex, would she confront them all when she's on her own if she doesn't recognise them ??

She's ridiculous, why didn't she call security or something, if she was truly suspicious. Nobody with half a brain would block a door way and get in someone's face like that with just a little dog by her side .

So is it any wonder why people think she had another motive as she did everything WRONG !! .

Good

Her actions betray her intent. If she was truly as worried about security as she claimed, she wouldn't have confronted him nor would she have followed him to his door. It's just the latest in a trend of racist white people calling the police on black people for no reason.

This wouldn''t have been a story if she actually just stuck to procedure and alerted security to clear things up instead of confronting him and trying to intimidate someone for the colour of their skin.

..I’m also thinking that she had seen him before going in and out of the apartment block and knew for sure he was a resident...because that would explain the absence of ‘threat’ she seems to feel from him in how confrontational she was plus proceeding with that confrontation to be alone in the lift with him up to his floor...rather than phone for security to check it all out...it feels like she just wanted to know his apartment number and maybe ask around about who he was, see what she could find out about him etc...

No I think she had been drinking and hence was much braver than you would expect her to be

[Marsh.]

Why not just let her close the door and then open it with the fob instead of this petty arguing and filming?

Yes, she was out of order but come on.

It's a little tiring that every case of a white and black person having a public dispute being filmed and used as evidence of racism when no racism occurs.

Look at me agreeing with you, Marshy... I feel all warm and happy.

Don't get too comfortable, I just read that she called the police after seeing him use his own key to enter his apartment so now my viewpoint is up in the air.

But I think that's more of a "lawsuit America" because he barged passed her to get in, than racism.

As Cherie said, two extremely stubborn people.

[Northern Monkey]

Yeah agree with Cherie and Livia.There wasn’t any racial abuse involved.
The only way the News network could get a storyline out of this was to sensationalise it by putting “white woman” and “black man” in the title.

She should’ve shut the door on him and she made some bad decisions but there was no racism there.

You don't have to have racist abuse & ignorant slurs for there to still be an undertone of racism .

Even if it wasn't racism,she was still in the wrong . As I've said already why didn't she just phone someone to clear things up ?? .

The guy had his keys to his apartment,she harassed him & followed him all the way to his door !! . Makes you wonder if she has already seen him but decided to confront him still to get a reaction out of him .

Well for all we know she probably wouldn't of done anything if a white guy entered who was a tenant she didn't recognise . I doubt she would of blocked the door way,who in their right mind tries to take the law in their hands anyway .

I bet there's all sorts of dodgy characters that she would never approach but he was probably an easy going guy so she tried to look like she was "following safety rules" , I'm not buying it! She's crazy ! .
