You must know how serious it is to call cops on black men for just living life. It often results in incarceration and even loss of like.

That's what's serious.

It appears that the woman thought that she had the right to tell the man to leave the park because dogs were acting like dogs act. I can understand if a dog was acting aggressively toward my dog. I would ask the other owner to keep control of their dog, but asking him to leave and then calling the police is ridiculous. She likely thought that the police would side with her and make the man leave because of the color of his skin.

I used to go to dog parks but my dog got “humped” too often. I quit going since I have a submissive dog and it was bad for him and me. It is insane to call the cops like this just because the other owner is black. Dog interactions like this are common at dog parks.

They are doing what dogs do. What is her problem? Unless the dogs were actually getting violent against her dog, she has no right to complain about the owner.

These are dogs, pooches, puppies, canines for crying out loud. LOL. How utterly stupid. Dogs hump everything--other dogs, trees, legs, kids, chairs, etc. You name it and a doggie will hump it.

Because . . . they're dogs!!!!

Maybe this is what happens when we take our 'best friends' and attempt to morph them into something they're not.

Or maybe this woman and her friend are just plain nuts and/or looking for a fight. Didn't like the idea of a black guy and his dog in their dog park.

These two women look so-o-o ignorant and idiotic in this faux incident.

Inappropriate behavior. O.M.G. The world is truly gone bonkers.

I look forward to the day when it is common place that when police called for such mundane issues pressure is exerted by charging folks (Big Fines) for the cost of public resources time spent on racist/stupid calls - and include some $ of compensation to the target.

Wtf is wrong with these people?
