What convinced me was the "I don't feel safe" part. If she was only concerned about rules & regs, that would have been her issue. But since fear was, unless she has some coal phobia, it WAS sadly a race issue.

But did she call because she is a prude and saw someone breaking a rule or did she call because of the color of their skin? There's a big difference.

Wake up Willem, it's not too late to temper your diseased liberalism.

And a lot of them deserved it. That cop who choked the guy at the Waffle House? Turns out they were being abusive to the staff. That woman who was questioned by cops at the airport? Turns out she was spilling over into another woman's seat and started accusing the woman of racism and harassing her with her cellphone camera when the woman simply asked if she could move over a bit.

Jesus Christ, you low-T cuck. Go back into the closet and watch your trans "girl"friend f**k her black boyfriend. An ironic beard isn't a substitute for a chin or a jaw, by the way.

They were smiling as they said that. There was no reason to assume they were being honest. Those chicks came for the drama.

She did? Do your remember in which part? I just can not watch that whole things, drives me crazy.

That might indeed make a difference. I based my opinion mostly on the text

I can send a copy to your mailbox if you give me an adress.

It wasn't a no BBQ area. Merrit Park does separate the charcoal from the non-charcoal cooking areas for safety reasons after a child was burned back in 2015 on improperly disposed of coals. https://www.lakemerritt.org/park-info.html It's so frustrating to see both sides arguing past each other over semantics. I think one side wasn't listening with an open mind because of the perception that white people are always out to dominate black people. The only people making a big issue out of race was the people grilling and the woman taking the video.

You know, I think it's very important that we take racism seriously , since it's a serious issue. One of the crucial steps to dealing with problems is being able to accurately pinpoint the problem. In my eyes, misuse of the word racism(by association to things that are in fact NOT racist) is almost just as bad to help the problem as the actual ignoring of it. This seems like one of those cases where it's misused. Let's look at the definition shall we? "prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior." We have absolutely NOTHING but prejudice to base ourselves off to say that the woman would've acted differently when there would have been white people holding the bbq. And I really don't want to deny racism. In fact, if I really wanted to observe it, I would look at your comment which contains some pretty racist prejudices against white people, but I don't want to lose track of the main point

No, charcoal grills were not allowed in that narrow area along Lakeshore Ave. https://www.lakemerritt.org/park-info.html The map is clear if you pay attention and take the time to understand the two icons and the written information near the bottom of the page.

I think it's weird when someone is against racism (you're right it's really horrible, I totally against it too) but is ok with fat shaming. It just discredits the line.

Exactly! Also add ugly fat white woman.
