You've gotta be just fucking with us all at this point. You refuse to call openly racially-fueled remarks racist, yet have no issue claiming racism on someone calling the police on the guy who pulled a gun on BLM protesters. The blatant bias and hypocrisy is just insane.

The fact you can't understand something doesn't make it hypocritical. My positions are broadly consistent and specifically pertain to intent. If somebody believes in their heart of hearts that the police kill minorities over nothing -- as a BLM protestor would -- there's a very strong intention signaled in his decision to try to bring in the cops when he himself believes it could be a death sentence. Bear in mind that other BLM supporters have mentioned HESITATING in calling the cops in more serious matters because they know the possible outcome. Meanwhile that asshole was following the guy trying to get his plates. More importantly, I never called the guy racist. I went back to the original post because I wasn't sure where the fuck that was coming from and I can't find a single reference beyond a suggestion that it could have played a factor in his decision. The fact that you're pretending that I did is trolling.

@keyblader1985 I don't know if you have mentions enabled -- I don't, excluding for people on my friends list -- but I want to fucking clear about the above. Oh, not to mention that I have to correct your blatant lie about protestors calling the cops on him for bringing out the gun because the confrontation resulted from the protestor following the guy with the intention of calling the cops. The cops got involved because they saw the u-turn and the suspect pull the gun because he was angered or threatened (most likely angered) by the guy following him.

Bottom line -- If someone believes that cops randomly kill people after encountering them on nothing complaints yet decides to call the police on a nothing complaint, they're doing so with the sincere belief that the individual could be killed. That's pretty fucking evil. And randomly calling the cops because you get into an argument with somebody is (to borrow some SJW slang) a Karen move. And if you're wondering how the protestor could justify doing something so evil, the answer -- which the protestor himself gave -- is that he doesn't feel that all lives matter.

As for the asshole in this story, the initial article very strongly suggests that he was annoyed by the singing. Last I checked, Asians aren't the only people to sing "Happy Birthday". iirc, his rant had racial overtones, but ultimately he was saying whatever he could to hurt and provoke (or, in other words, OFFEND) the victims of his tirade. And that's why even if this anti-racism camp was legitimate (which it isn't), it wouldn't do a damn thing because the guy would still be an asshole at the end. The only thing that might change is he wouldn't use certain verbiage while berating people singing at a restaurant. For you, that might be all you want. Personally, I'd prefer that this guy not act like an asshole.
