Jogging while black

Today we learn that poor Karen was fired.

Made my day.

Hopefully she gets some "exit counselling".

She has obvious baggage, either racial or generalized (maybe she's been mugged or molested or something in the past).

But I'm tired of seeing Karen's "weoponizing" their baggage.
Other people aren't responsible for yours...............we all have our own to work out.

My advice to her is 3-fold:

1) observe the laws. Off leash in a leash-only area gives you no leg to stand on

2) when in public people can and will film you, esp. if you are breaking the law, and not a reason to call 911

3) don't own a dog if your narcissism doesn't allow an awareness of other living beings. That tiny dog is probably achy today from being thrashed around like lettuce in spin-basket.

4) if you manage to overcome your narcissism, and deemed worthy of owning
a dog.......get a nice BIG Rottie, BIG German Shepherd, mean lookin' Dobie or muscular Pittie if you're scared to walk in areas that are not well populated, and put a can of mace in your pocket if need be (though most will not approach you with the breeds I mentioned.)

Well I don't think that her entire life should be ruined over this. I still can't figure out her reaction though?

She's an exec in an investment firm.

The black guy is a Harvard grad, and didn't exactly look like a street thug or anything.... wire rimmed glasses, with greying salt-n-pepper, short-to-the-head haircut. Nothing scary looking about him at all, if anything you'd look at someone like that, with binnoculars hanging off his neck, and think he was probably a mild-mannered guy.

I still am unclear about her reaction, esp. when she got so histrionic and almost *theatrical* during her phone call, dragging an entire drama llama into the call, shrieking at one point. Maybe she is under a lot of stress or something.

Hopefully she will get a psych eval and/or some diversity training or whatever is *required* and get back to work.

So that is a description of a "Mild mannered guy, not a scary looking black guy".
That's good to know.

I’ve forgotten what this thread was about.

Good.

The one year anniversary of his death.

No justice yet.

What’s taking so long?
