Woman Demands Man To Prove He Lives In Neighborhood, Tells Him To Call Cops On Himself
Woman Demands Man To Prove He Lives In Neighborhood, Tells Him To Call Cops On Himself
- 5 minutes
Yeah, I do.
>> Speaker 2: You don't have right,
I need you to remove
yourself from the vehicle.
>> Speaker 1: Call the police,
I'm ready to talk to them.
>> Speaker 2: You're not allowing-
>> Speaker 1: Cuz you will then prove to
them that you're supposed to be here.
>> To them, not to you.
>> Yes.
>> Speaker 2: Not to you.
So move.
>> Speaker 1: Call them.
>> Speaker 2: Why would I
call the police on myself?
[00:00:17]
You need to move.
>> Speaker 1: No, I don't.
>> Speaker 2: You're causing
an unsafe situation, and
you're entrapping me from leaving here.
I cannot leave because-
>> You cannot prove to me that you
belong here.
>> Speaker 3: Okay, I believe it's
kidnapping, but I'm not a lawyer.
[00:00:35]
Is Karen demanding to know
where a man lives, whether or
not he actually lives in the neighborhood.
I don't even know if she lives there.
You understand?
And by the way, I don't know if you saw
it, Mayor, but why so many keys, Karen?
Why did you have all
those keys on a string?
[00:00:53]
I wanna know where you live.
The man, you heard him, says,
why would I call the police on myself?
But why, Mayor, or
police even mentioned it all.
I can't imagine that day, and
I think it's still an extension of today,
[00:01:11]
where any black person had to stop when
a white person said, show me your papers.
This is show me your papers.
Very patient man, Mayor.
Very patient man, as she was,
in my view, holding him hostage.
This is kidnapping.
[00:01:27]
Preventing him from leaving.
>> Speaker 4: Yeah,
it definitely looks like kidnapping to me.
And like you said, we're not lawyers.
I didn't go to law school, and
it definitely looks like kidnapping to me.
Here's my thing, the audacity to believe
that you have the right to stand in front
of someone's door and demand that they
show you that they live in a neighborhood.
[00:01:46]
What if they don't live in a neighborhood?
How do you get new neighbors?
But for them, driving through, seeing
a house that's for sale or something,
or for rent, this idea that you
are the police, this is Karen behavior.
I'm gonna tell you why this is so
dangerous.
[00:02:01]
Everybody is not as gentle
as kind as this person.
One person saying that they feel
threatened by this woman and
pulling out a gun and doing something
to her, and then all of a sudden,
this situation is completely different,
right?
You cannot be a Karen vigilante in
this manner, where you just walk up to
[00:02:18]
anybody's car door and stand in it, and
I don't even know if you open the door.
But regardless, you will not let this
person close their own car door in
the middle of the street,
a public street, it looks like.
So I'm confused at what makes her,
the police of this situation,
[00:02:33]
but for her whiteness,
but for her Karenicity.
>> Karenicity, I believe,
is in the dictionary now, not should be.
Full definition, all forms, verb, noun,
however you wanna use it, Karening, okay?
It should be fully understood.
[00:02:49]
It should be taught in schools
because these people are out there.
And I'll take it a step further,
Mayor, since, why not speculate?
Because the scenario you laid out
could very well happen only if
the person who said,
I feel threatened justifiably so, or
[00:03:04]
perhaps Brown had injured or
worse, this woman.
Do you know what the members of
the disconnected media would report?
A so and so aged woman was,
and all she did was ask him,
hey, do you live around here?
[00:03:22]
Total disconnect with the oppression,
the oppression of other people,
because this is not your world.
In your world, police are heroes,
they've done nothing wrong.
If you've attracted their attention,
you must be at fault.
[00:03:38]
You did something, come on.
You did something,
you just don't know what it is.
The gentleness, I suspect, Mayor, and
I'll give you the last word on this,
is a result of what this gentleman
perhaps was taught about how you
[00:03:54]
should handle this bear in the wild, okay?
When you encounter bear in the wild,
you're supposed to play dead.
Play dead because the bear doesn't
really wanna mess with somebody
who's just compliant dead.
I suspect that this gentleman knows
that Karens actually are dangerous,
[00:04:13]
as much as we like to laugh at them.
>> Speaker 4: Indeed, and the sad
part about it is, in a country that
prides itself being the country of
the land of the free and the brave,
from sea to shining sea, one must
pretend to be dead just to Miranda and
move around the streets, meander, I mean.
[00:04:30]
So here's what I'm bothered by, though.
I have a different philosophy.
You know what I'm saying?
I don't believe in the don't touch me.
I'm not passive.
If you run up in my face,
and I have a history of it,
I'm not acting as a bad-ass, but
I'm not gonna be my grandmother.
[00:04:48]
I'm not gonna be nice about the situation.
If you bring this type of behavior to me,
you're gonna wish you didn't,
cuz I'm gonna shoot fire at you.
And I don't stop.
I just don't.
>> Speaker 3: It's like Doc always says,
Dr.
Richie said, you bring that to me,
I'm not gonna take the high road.
[00:05:06]
Doc says what?
I'm travelling right back down the road
you brought it to me on, okay?
You understand?
All of this is enough to make you sick.
