Hey genius, the white offered to hold the door. The black guy said he didn't need that. Was he holding the door to let him out??

What prevented the white guy from walking away with the door locked behind him?

Oh, maybe you are disapointed in the black guy speaking in a rational, calm, educated voice. I guess you expected him to go all worldstar on the white guy.

Where the fuck did he "offer" to hold the door? If you're going to stop someone that stepped in to the unauthorized area, it's kinda required to hold the door open unless you like talking to doors? Nice try fucking idiot.

No one cares how you dress. No one cares how you speak. No one cares about your skin color. You are unauthorized. Step out of the doorway and obtain authorization or have an authorized party escort you.

Why is this is fucking difficult? You're just lying to yourself in your own racial cognitive dissonance - one party is CLEARLY exiting the premise, the other person CLEARLY stepped into the premise - but was actually questioned by the person exiting instead of ignoring it. Fuck off, have a nice day. You lose on this one.

You can CLEARLY fucking see the other party STEPPED INTO the entry way. So unless he forcefully removes him, closing the door would close him inside of the unauthorized area.

Listen to the conversation dumb ass.

I'll say it for the 3rd time. Open locked door, exit and close it behind you. Are you really too stupid to understand that??

Heh, why did I ask that question?

I'll say it for the last time - You EXIT an EXIT - it's a slow shutting exit. You notice - AFTER exiting - that someone walks in behind you - something you never anticipated upon the initial exit - because you were not able to see them from the inside. Kind of *gasp* similar to when you open a corporate building door with your authorization badge and someone quickly comes in behind you before the door closes.


OH WOW - WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT?! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

Again - more racial cognitive dissonance. Go do some more Jussie Smuglette defending so you can lose more in life dipshit.

What does Jussie have to do with this you Trump dirtbag? I'll point out a few things.

The black guy was not trespassing he was still on the street. You ignored that lie.

We don't know how "slow" the door magnets are. You made that up to help continue your lie.

The kid has more brains then you. Just close the door and walk away. There would have been no incident. That guy saw a black man waiting and decided to make a scene. Towards the end of the recording the person being visited answers, again proving my point.

Go back to your troll hut.

THIS is outside?

If this is outside to you - there is no further point in debating because I'm debating with the equivalent of a fucking tree stump. Go back to arguing with your kids or something- the adults are talking here. Your IQ is complete dog shit if you have problems differentiating between "THIS GUY INSIDE, THIS GUY OUTSIDE!"

If you watch the video and imagine both parties are stick figure drawings with no way to identify a race, ethnicity, style of dress, etc. it should be pretty evident that the person who lives in the condo has every right not to allow someone to tailgate/piggyback into the controlled access building. The person trying to enter without getting buzzed or let in by a resident as their guest is completely in the wrong here. Skin color is irrelevant.

How would a person of color feel if a white person tried to let themselves in to their controlled access condo and threatened to send a social media lynch mob against them in retaliation for not letting them piggyback?

Let's start treating everyone as equals, all equally beholden to the same rules, all equally responsible for our own actions, all capable of making right and wrong decisions, all capable of redemption and worthy of respect.

I can't help but see everyone screaming at the top of their lungs that, effectively, rules should not apply to people of color because of the color of their skin, actually deep down inside see people of color as children, incapable of agency or making good choices, and in need of brave, strong white people to stand up, defend, and excuse their actions.

And T-minus 10 minutes until my view that all people are equal is decried as racist.....

Quoting myself from the other thread:


While I sort of get where people are coming from in the "I wouldn't let a stranger come in through the door behind me" camp are coming from, I'm 31 and have been living in apartments since I was 17. This shit happens, a lot. I sure as heck don't know who all the people living in the various buildings I've lived in were. I don't think this dude would have called the police if he wasn't African American. I know I've never called the police or have had the police called on me in such a situation. No one has even questioned me in such a situation. Why didn't he just say who he was waiting for? Think about the fact that he was being questioned and damn well knew why he was being questioned.

If they were both stick figures and race was removed, I doubt the police would have been called. Even the god damned 5 year old knew this. THE FUCKING FIVE YEAR OLD KNEW THIS.

Obviously it happens a lot. Doesn't make it right nor does it make it wrong for a tenant to question someone doing it. How many white people are questioned for tailgating/piggybacking and the interaction is never recorded?

You're just assuming race was a factor.

The child's reaction indicates that something wasn't quite regular about this seemingly regular occurrence.

I didn't say it was a regular occurrence. Only that there was nothing wrong with confronting the tailgater/piggybacker.

Tell me, are white people allowed to hold people of color to any standard, rule, or law? A nearby neighborhood has a community pool that closes at 10pm. If kids break into it after 10pm I'm only OK to call the police if they're white but if they're black my life should be destroyed? After all, kids swimming in community pools after hours isn't uncommon so clearly I'm racist.

Don't you see how that logic is treating people of color with kid gloves and implies you think they're inferior?

If you re-read what you said, even you can recognize a specious argument.

Recognizing why someone would be annoyed when being questioned over an everyday situation and having the cops called on you is not treating someone with "kid gloves." That you think me recognizing that as such speaks volumes to your dearth of character.

If its my card that unlocks the door its only me going through it. I have stopped plenty from tailgating and the funny part is that about half of them goes "But I forgot my card!". Sorry dude, I dont know you (with a smile, always).
Anyway this is in a work setting and not really practical in this situation, I know its easier to deal in absolutes but.common. What is the purpose of the door? Keep the homeless out? Do everyone else just buzz everyone else in? What is the standard operating procedure here? He may be legally expressing his right to be dick here.. at the end of the day it is his creds on record. Now what are his choices? What is he liable for? Whats the law say?
 
General Victim culture mentality.

In this case - Mr Cukor was exiting his building, and the other gentlemen was FOLLOWING HIM IN from the exit AKA "tailgating". You know, that thing EVERY company tells you to make sure NEVER happens, right? The point is obvious - someone is trying to access a restricted area (owners/renters) with someone that doesn't own or rent the area and isn't being escorted by an appropriate person.

The guy is simply doing what everyone else is too much of a pansy to do in work culture - turn around and tell them to please have authorization instead of tailgating.

White, black, brown, yellow, orange trump or gold - no one gives a fuck about the color of your skin. You're unauthorized to enter the premise.

But but but but but but but but But but but but but but but but But but but but but but but but But but but but but but but but But but but but but but but but But but but but but but but but it's because I'm black!
Got it - so next time you're in a corporate office and some guy wants to tailgate in behind you to a secured area, just make sure you judge him on his attire and assume he means no harm. What could go wrong? By the way, you're responsible for all theft, crime, or illegal activity that occurs because you were the sole responsible party for their entry.

DERP

By the way, just so you understand this - you JUST SAID to judge someone based on their appearance. I thought that's what we aren't supposed to do? Make up your mind you silly fucking contradicting moron.

Looks like someone’s feelz got hurt
 
It's what happens when you determine right and wrong according to policy or, what's legal.

Yeap, god forbid we worry about what is right vs. wrong instead of tugging at liberal heart strings of illogical fallacies.

Facts? What happened? Nawww dude, why do that when you can pull a race card and claim oppression for entering a premise that you are not allowed to enter?

Sorry, right vs wrong or legal vs illegal (within the context of a building policy)?

I don't see anything specifically wrong with someone trying to meet their friend in a building lobby, regardless of the 'rules'. I do see things wrong with someone trying to restrict the movement of another adult for no good reason.

A locked premise by definition is not a lobby detective dipshit. Deeeeeeeeeeeeerp.

Try again inspector moron.

Have you ever been to an apartment building in a city? They often have a lobby in the entrance of the apt, requires a keycard to get into. Benches, elevators, community poster boards, the whole nine yards.

Usually people get in by just buzzing the entire building, someone always opens the door. Not like a keycard entrance is infallible anyhow.

You'll get your point across better without insulting people. Let your argument stand on its own merits.
 
Another one. Grocery shopping while black/POC.
https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/i-h...can-woman-for-speaking-spanish-183528034.html

The white woman didn't like the fact that the POC was speaking Spanish.
Article quotes that she said "“Go back to your own country — we’re not your fucking piggyback.” "
I couldn't pick that up.
Effing ignoramus says "I hope trump deports you"
because she “came here illegally.”
"As Santana completed her transaction, the other woman held out what appears to be $5 bills and said: “I pay legal money, not drug money.” "

Deport the lady back to Puerto Rico? White woman probably wouldn't know that
people from Puerto Rico are American citizens.

Seems like Trump supporters don't know Puerto Rico is part of the US. This is not the first time this type of incident has occurred. Looks like they are in a Dollar Tree.

But I am sure this person didn't take a shot at this woman and assumed/not assumed she was from PR.
She was dark-skinned and was speaking Spanish. That's all that mattered to this racist.

The article said grocery store but yes, that looks like a dollar tree. (They do sell a lot of groceries at the one near me).
