"You walked up on the street"
How the f**k else was he supposed to get in, swoop down from the skies like he's Batman?

"I'M UNcOmfoRTAble"


walks into the same elevator minutes later

For a man who supposedly entered her building whom she doesn’t know, she certainly felt comfortable and safe enough to keep being in his face harassing him 🤨

[treehugger]

She’s supposedly so scared of him, yet she blocks him, follows him, gets on the elevator with him, goes right after him to his apartment door. Yet, she’s so scared of him right? Thank God this young man acted the way he did. His compassion in telling people to let her be at peace is so commendable. Hopefully, she learned something from him.

If he didn’t have the camera on, she would sue him for sexual assault

I feel bad for the dog, now all his friends at the dog park are gonna think he's racist like his owner.

The poor guy! Bless his heart. He was so kind.

The title on this video clip is called " Woman fired after blocking black man ". As far as I can see, no action was taken against this racist woman.

Here's the crazy part, she said she didn't feel comfortable. But, got on the elevator with the person she didn't feel comfortable with 🤔 smh.

black man: *enjoying his day*

karen: Wait. That’s illegal.

[patwats]

Hard to believe that people can be treated like this.. makes me sad and mad.

[aguynamedryan]

The weirdest bit about this that I can't fathom is how respectable well kept and nice this guy looks and she still questioned him. Her only justification is his skin colour and that is so saddening.

[TEAMLZAR]

He actually took her to court but was dismissed because she didnt let the judge in the court room

"You walked up on the street..."

What is he supposed to do? Fly?

[coolguyhino]

"you make me uncomfortable"

*proceeds to accompany him, alone, into an elevator??

[timewithruby]

I feel so bad for this man that he experienced and went through this horrible harassment!

[arielfelts]

If she was so scared and uncomfy why would she follow him alone and make him angry?

[deneilbaker]

Guaranteed she has at least one “Live, Laugh, Love” in her home

“You walked up on the street and entered the building”

Was he supposed to free fall to the building?

[richardhart]

“Please nobody go after her”

The very next scene the news team ringing her door bell 😂😂
