Karen in Central Park

[dannno]

Karen walks her dog off leash - which - I personally have no problem with. I think there should be more off leash areas for dogs, and a lot of areas that require leashes are well suited for allowing dogs off leash. Many of these areas that require leashes are full of dogs off leash and I've yet to see any problems in a public place with off leash dogs, and I spend every day in these areas.

There are plenty of friendly dogs out there who do great off leash, big and small. They shouldn't be punished because some people have dogs that are not well socialized with others.

They should have some trails in Central Park that allow dogs off leash, others that allow them on leash and you could even have some that don't allow dogs for people who are afraid. It's big enough.

An African American guy starts filming her while her dog is off leash, and she freaks out and tells him to stop filming her and acts like he is threatening her with violence and says she is going to call the cops and tell them an "African American man is threatening me!!"

The entire time she is choking the dog because she is holding it by the collar instead of leashing up right away. Eventually it bites her.

Was there ever any doubt? I might have set the betting odds at 9 to 1 based on her actions.

[Anti Globalist]

Not surprised at all that shes a leftist. A conservative would never treat their dog like that.

[Brian4Liberty]

And next up, we’ll get more context. Why was he carrying dog treats and what was he going to do to the dog that she was “not going to like”?


He described the conversation he says occurred before he began recording with his cell phone:

ME: Ma’am, dogs in the Ramble have to be on the leash at all times. The sign is right there.
HER: The dog runs are closed. He needs his exercise.
ME: All you have to do is take him to the other side of the drive, outside the Ramble, and you can let him run off leash all you want.
HER: It’s too dangerous.
ME: Look, if you’re going to do what you want, I’m going to do what I want, but you’re not going to like it.
HER: What’s that?
ME (to the dog): Come here, puppy!
HER: He won’t come to you.
ME: We’ll see about that…
Christian Cooper said he was planning to offer the dog treats.
...
Christian Cooper wrote, “I pull out the dog treats I carry for just for such intransigence. I didn’t even get a chance to toss any treats to the pooch before Karen scrambled to grab the dog.” He said she then yelled at him, “don’t you touch my dog.” Christian Cooper said, “That’s when I started video recording with my iPhone, and when her inner Karen fully emerged and took a dark turn…”

Also not defending it, everybody knows what I think of calling cops...but,

According to his own account of the event, a reasonable person might suspect he was going to harm or snatch the dog:

ME: Ma’am, dogs in the Ramble have to be on the leash at all times. The sign is right there.
HER: The dog runs are closed. He needs his exercise.
ME: All you have to do is take him to the other side of the drive, outside the Ramble, and you can let him run off leash all you want.

From Brian's post above:

"Look, if you’re going to do what you want, I’m going to do what I want, but you’re not going to like it."

Just what did he have in mind?

I am not excusing her, she took it too far, but his words may have rattled her and that is understandable. They both were wrong.

Kind of reminds me of John 8 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John+8&version=KJV) in the Bible. The scribes and Pharisees brought the woman to be stoned for adultery, but they neglected to bring the man.

Yeah, that is always a bad escalation...then again it's NYC...they were both long gone before a cop showed up.

I've got no dog in this hunt...both of these people would have been well served with a healthy dose of "mind your own fucking business".

It seems like that is the premeditated plan he was going to use. Pretend to poison someone's dog.


Christian Cooper wrote, “I pull out the dog treats I carry for just for such intransigence.

And he started recording her reaction after that. Reeks of set-up. But she fell for it hook, line and sinker, and she jumped right to the nuclear option (calling cops and fake drama). Choking her dog the whole time was the icing on the cake for her stupidity.

Well, my objection to people giving my dogs treats without my permission is that it gets the dogs to trust everybody, rather than having a healthy mistrust of strangers.

I am of the opinion they both were wrong. This should serve as a reminder that their are consequences to snitching.

Okay, heres an example of why this “Karen” bullshit you’re all going along with, is reprehensible. Just another cheap and lazy way to thoughtlessly hate and hurt people you know nothing about.

How can any of you miss that? Why would you consider this okay and funny?

[Here, I will pre-respond to those who are inclined to Okay-Karen me over this post: FUCK YOU.]

The whole crux of the story is:

"Another typically unreasonable white lady threatens a poor hapless black man, who - by the way - was only trying to enforce government rules! Clearly she hates all black people, so let's mob up and destroy her.”

The big cry-baby complains that the dog was “tearing through the plantings”.

In Central Park the "plantings" are left to nature. That was the the whole point of creating Central Park - to preserve some natural area! It’s not made up of rose beds and knot gardens! The woman says she let the dog run there because the regular dog area was closed. Why? Because of Covid-19? An inability to monitor social distancing? She stated that the alternative to that area was too “dangerous”. How so? Nobody’s curious?

Secondly,
ARE ANY OF YOU AWARE OF HOW FREQUENTLY LONE WOMAN ARE RAPED AND BEATEN IN CENTRAL PARK?

It's pretty frequently. Reality dictates that any lone woman hold some level of suspicion towards any man, of any color, that approaches her, particularly when he is acting weird and/or accosting her. This man was behaving like an asshole and he admits to accosting her. [accost - to approach and address (someone) boldly or aggressively ]

This busy-body was threatening towards her and her dog. He tried to take possession of her dog by offering it food or poison.

“If you’re going to do what you want, im going to do what I want, but you’re not going to like it."

Do you think this jerk-off would’ve responded the same way if the dog’s owner had been a 6’4”, 265 lb. black man?! No, he wouldn’t have! He picked her out and chose to bully her. He admits to having done this to others. Were they all women? Were they all white women? Obviously, he feels some sense of superiority. Did he follow the others around and video them, too? Perhaps an investigation is warranted to determine if the objects of his past harrassments have been multi-cultural, or if he just hates white women?

This kind of hatred has no place in our city.”

If you want me to concede that he was also in the wrong for a third time, here goes: He was wrong. I haven't forgotten. She is clearly seen approaching him in the video though, so the idea that his earlier pestering frightened her falls a little flat. She pulled the race card. She called the cops and lied about being attacked. That guy (sorry, that very wrong guy) could be dead right now. Let's not forget that either.

Yep, they both were wrong and this is the crux of the problem in our society. Too many Karen's and too many Kevin's that do not know how to mind their own business.

The mask people are the same way. Wearing a mask is not good and causes hypoxia and lowers the immune system, but the Karen's and Kevin's out there will run you out of an establishment simply because they do not know how to mind their own business.

Karen was originally created and spread by predominantly white conservative young men regarding white women who are always up in people's business and have a huge superiority complex and like to complain - especially to management.

It's a great meme that is very applicable in today's society, however I have seen it taken out of context by the left when a bunch of redditers were trying to falsely apply the term to the "anti-vaccine" woman who got arrested for taking her kid to the park. But in the correct context, it is still a great meme.

As far as having her life ruined - guess what?

The guy who filmed her is Christian Cooper, a Harvard graduate and when he found out she lost her job and her whole life was torn apart he said - "If our goal is to change the underlying factors, I'm not sure that tearing her life apart serves that goal"

I have shifted by opinion on the story since the OP due to the fact that he made some odd comments about what he wanted to do with her dog.. plus I wasn't too thrilled to begin with that he was so concerned about an off leash dog.. Clearly they were both wrong. However it seems like he has some regrets about what happened and I thought that was a pretty good statement that he made after the fact.

[ThePaleoLibertarian]

I don't doubt for a moment this woman is absolutely insufferable. As far as I can tell, she seems to have no redeeming qualities whatsoever. She's not even a good dog owner. But a confrontation between two people -- that in previous decades wouldn't have even been a local news story -- is now a major event that's known the world over. A baying mob is to judge whether the woman deserves forgiveness from the sin of racism. This is a truly toxic society. This is a mass-display of social illness that even a decade ago was unthinkable.

I don't have any sympathy for her.
I have a lot of empathy for what used to be our culture.

Not true. The origin of the "Karen" meme was among blacks, according to pretty much every source on the topic.

But in the correct context, it is still a great meme.

I agree that it's been spun to apply to any white woman who doesn't agree with someone else, such as the vaccination topic. I think the meme has its place, however, since there definitely are "Karens" out there, but the interpretation of the term has become flexible and ripe for spin.

When I apply the label (as rare as that is) it is applied to shrill authoritarian white women that wish to use force against someone else, regardless of race, to enforce their opinions, especially by using someone else as the enforcer. That is the widely accepted origin of the term.

Hah, you mean ZERO sources?

Edit: Apparently it was redditards that started it, based on an actual crazy lady like that named Karen who divorced her husband and took the kids..

But it was quickly adopted by the more conservative crowd as well due to their authoritarian nature, we have been seeing Karen memes here for a while now.

Fat lot of good it does to turn on the high-minded sentiments after the desiccated corpse of the witch he set out to burn, lies smoldering in a heap of ashes! HE is the scumbag that invited the world to come and grind those ashes deeper into the dirt. Maybe they can make her disappear off the planet completely? Great work! He should be very proud of himself. A real hero!

Sure. Who ever could’ve foreseen that when you set out to target some deviant law breaker, - who is clearly smaller and weaker than you - when you follow your “polite” request with an endless string of arguing, harassment, threats and DEMANDS for obedience - WHO could’ve foreseen that the weak, fragile and defenseless creature would eventually panic, freak out, and as a last resort, call the cops to come and drag you the fuck away from her - saying ANYTHING that will make them get there in a hurry, in case the demented bully decides to physically attack, too?!

After his “polite” requests, the big brat should’ve moved on, content to bask in the validation of his most virtuous and law-abiding superiority over this wicked and entitled white lady - who - OH MY GOD! - had the audacity to let her dog run around leashless in an otherwise empty area of the park! IF that doesn’t SCREAM “white supremacist”, I don’t know what does!

No, he chooses to continue insisting that she obey - following, needling, intimidating, bullying, threatening - provoking.

Finally, when this woman [and who knows the state of her own life/mind?] really starts falling apart, he whips out his cell phone to record the ugly spectacle, THEN POSTS IT ON THE INTERNET where millions of self-righteous sickos around the world have now enjoyed gawking at the PORNOGRAPHIC mess and calling for her destruction!

Sure, who could’ve predicated such a thing would occurr?!
Only anyone with an ounce of intelligence and a speck of humility!

Great job Christian Cooper! You’re a real man! BE VERY PROUD OF YOURSELF!

Would he have done this if the the dog owner were a large, muscular black man?
Well, I’d love to see THAT video! Wouldn’t you?

Would he have done this if she were armed?
I’d guess not - but if he had, she’d have likely shot him and the empty-headed mob would still be screaming “...just because he’s black!”. Of course, the demands to “burn the witch” would remain equally profuse, as there is no room left to increase them beyond what we are currently hearing, even as the big jerk is alive and kicking.

In this corner of the internet, I mostly sit back and laugh at this shit show like Statler and Waldorf, the two Muppets in the balcony. In this case it's a battle of the SJWs. In one corner it's Believe All Women (especially those named Karen) Oppressed By Patriarchy vs Black Guy Oppressed By Whitey.

It was a stupid incident. It should have been laughed at and we should move on to the next idiots.

But no, she loses her job and we get lectured endlessly on how this is all of our fault.

It's not really funny at this point. Eventually, they may be calling for me to lose my job for mocking the me too movement. For sarcastically posting "Believe All Women"I can see some SJWs accusing me of being pro-rape. This is going beyong stupid to dangerous.

This guy is some Harvard activist for GLAAD, it stinks. It's ridiculous this woman has lost her job, anybody that feels the need to comment on what I'm doing can be kindly told to **** off, if they have a problem call the cops and watch them laugh at you. The whole thing is probably staged to begin with.

She is a closet racist like most leftists. They will publicly say they support equality but will be the first to cross the street if a black male is walking on the same side toward them at night.

[tebowlives]

If you want me to concede that he was also in the wrong for a third time, here goes: He was wrong. I haven't forgotten. She is clearly seen approaching him in the video though, so the idea that his earlier pestering frightened her falls a little flat. She pulled the race card. She called the cops and lied about being attacked. That guy (sorry, that very wrong guy) could be dead right now. Let's not forget that either.
Why do you say he could be dead? Cops killing citizens, although tragic, is rare. He's much more in danger of being killed by another black person. 50 percent of black males aged 15-34 die at the hands of other blacks. Whites in that age group die of accidents.

If people want to refer to crazy women as "Karen" they can go right ahead. I'll stick to just calling these people dumbfcks.

[Valli6]

So apparently this woman is just as reprehensible as you all already believe, because I see that in the past, she had initiated some nutty lawsuit over an imaginary relationship and/or a theft that never occurred. https://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/manhattan/ny-amy-cooper-sued-married-ex-lover-before-calling-cops-on-black-man-20200527-2htiizslk5ftrdduca3qemxwpq-story.html

So how ‘bout that?

SHE’S NUTS! Get it?! NUTS!

She’s just another emotionally disturbed person walking around in a large city. It IS New York City, you know! You don’t go outside in a city like that without running into a few crazies every day. Random crazies are the norm! I thought most people were aware of that? Am I wrong?

Decent people know not to engage with the deranged, but this was not the case for Dog-leash Doofus! He was out to “change underlying factors” that day and not above exploiting some weaker person's emotional damage to grab himself some world-wide notoriety!

This very, very special, Harvard-educated, :rolleyes: professional person DID NOT have the presence of mind to pick up on this woman’s emotional instabilities! Or maybe he did, and made a conscious effort to exploit her weaknesses to his advantage?

He believes he has a noble cause - “to change the underlying factors” - whatever that means - bet he can't articulate it in a meaningful manner. One needs to wonder if this man believes that the whole world revolves entirely around “muh blackness”? The clown perhaps fancies himself some kind of civil rights hero and consider's this nut's meltdown a verification of the necessity of his quest. Has this given him a sense of accomplishment? What an intellectual loser! Sad state of affairs when people refuse to call an asshole an asshole, wholly because that particular asshole happens to be a black.

If the mob wants blood for evil intentions, Dog-leash Doofus is by far the guiltier of the two. He actually deserves to be excoriated for creating and viralizing what can only be considered a pornographic video - a damaged person melting down! It is OBSCENE that millions have gotten their kicks watching a crazy person lashing out - doing what crazy people do - talking crazy! I’d have more respect for this turd, if he made actual sex porn! The lone lunatic, at least I feel pity for - she has NOTHING and NO ONE. (I’ll be the first to admit however, that I would never want to be around her. I’ve dealt with “crazy” in my life when it couldn’t be avoided, but it’s not something I’m willing to seek out.)

Celebrities and politicians like to pontificate about how we all need to be more considerate of the mentally ill, cut them some slack when possible, do more to help them - but I’ve not heard a single one of them offer anything but contempt for this pathetic soul!

I have just had it up to here [my hand is above head] with obscene videos!

Hence forward I consider it porn when a video seeks only to upset me into lashing out as part of a mob in an emotionally stupid way. I’m just not watching the crap any more! ( i.e. I already know kneeling on a prone man’s neck for 8 minutes will kill him. I don’t need to watch the whole 8 minutes to determine that a cop who does this is an utter fuck-up who never should’ve been hired.)

I implore others to start thinking twice before clicking on porn videos designed to inflame you emotionally and encourage you to mob up and HATE others. Accept that the narration presented the first day is nearly always misleading and not the full story. The verifiable facts typically come out later on - we all know this. Can’t we have a little patience and wait for actual facts to get the story?

If a video can’t teach you something of value, REJECT IT.

My gut reaction was, "lighten up Val. Quit ruining our fun. It's just a joke," but in light of all the self flagellation that the MSM is prescribing for us, I am starting to understand the point that you are trying to make. I may still laugh at the Karen meme when it pops up, but not as hard.

...The incident comes as the concept of a 'Karen' has come to denote someone who represents white entitlement amid widespread Black Lives Matter protests.

In the past month several months the nickname has taken off, after multiple videos of white women throwing tantrums in public.

One of the original 'Karen' videos involved white woman Amy Cooper calling the police on Christian Cooper, a black birdwatcher in Central Park, claiming he was threatening her when he had simply asked her to put her dog on a leash.

Christian Cooper was never charged but he has since described the footage as proof of how quickly a white person can be to make a false or overzealous accusation against a black person to law enforcement.

In light of police brutality and systemic racism within law enforcement, such false accusations, he said, can be particularly dangerous.

In another example, a white New Jersey woman was dubbed 'Permit Karen'*for calling the police on her black neighbors after she allegedly repeatedly harassed them about needing a permit to install a patio in their backyard.

Yeah, in both cases it's good to know what happened before the recording started. Both of these cases were set-ups, no doubt about that.

In the case of the dog owner though, the way she treated the dog was not good, and she basically was "SWATing" the guy to the police. Calling the Police should be avoided for a variety of reasons, unless completely necessary. She seemed to be very vindictive and intentional about her call to the Police.

As for the dog, people sometimes treat dogs and animals much worse, with no consequences whatsoever. There was a recent case of Bella the German shepherd that was being abused, and the dog was not removed or taken from the family. Very inconsistent.

[69360]

The central park woman just got charged with making a false report, a misdemeanor. Seems appropriate she will pay a fine and get on with her life.

I doubt it's going to be that simple to get on with her life, but, eh... not my concern.

Now, what of all the liberty-loving white women who will now automatically be written off with this racist stereotype, which many here cluelessly helped create?

'Karen' is now any caucasian woman who supports the second amendment and does not like being ordered to wear a mask. She's any "independent thinker" who has doubts about her government's honesty, or movements that support mob rule. Of course, she's racist. Simple accusations of 'Karen' are now a socially acceptable substitute for intelligent arguments, because 'Karen' (which would include any white woman who'd support Ron Paul) deserves NO respect whatsoever and should only be dismissed!

Charges against ‘Central Park Karen’ Amy Cooper dismissed
https://nypost.com/2021/02/16/charges-against-central-park-karen-amy-cooper-dismissed/
Lia Eustachewich (16 February 2021)

[bold and underline emphasis added - OB]

Misdemeanor charges were tossed Tuesday against Amy Cooper — the “Central Park Karen’’ who falsely accused a black birdwatcher (https://nypost.com/2020/05/25/video-of-white-woman-calling-cops-on-black-man-in-central-park-draws-outrage/) of “threatening” her — after she completed a handful of therapy sessions.

Cooper had faced up to a year in prison on the charge of falsely reporting an incident (https://nypost.com/2020/07/06/manhattan-da-charges-amy-cooper-over-viral-central-park-911-call/)in the third degree.

But a judge granted Manhattan prosecutors’ request to dismiss Cooper’s case after she completed five therapy sessions “designed for introspection and progress,” Assistant District Attorney Joan Illuzzi-Orbon said at a brief virtual hearing.

[...]

“Psychoeducation about racial equity is woven into each therapy session to prompt understanding and reflection,” Illuzzi-Orbon told the judge of Amy Cooper’s time with the Critical Therapy Center in Manhattan.

“Ms. Cooper’s therapist reported that it was a moving experience and that Ms. Cooper learned a lot in their sessions together,’’ the ADA said.

[...]

Silvia Dutchevici, founder and president of the Critical Therapy Center, told The Post on Tuesday that generally, therapy as described in Amy Cooper’s case is not part of “a program in the traditional sense.”

For example, “you don’t attend a class with other people,” Dutchevici said.

“It’s actually individualized psychotherapy sessions. …The sessions are tailored to each individual person based on the issues they need to work on.

“Let’s use this as an example: If someone has issues with racism or sexism or homophobia or so forth, we actually do a critical inquiry into the person’s beliefs and what brought them to that place. It’s the personal meets the political,” she said.

[...]

Dutchevici, while declining to comment on Amy Cooper’s case, said the center has gotten referrals for therapy from city prosecutors before.

[...]

Noting “Ms. Cooper’s lack of criminal background,’’ the ADA said, “We offered her, consistent with our position on many misdemeanor cases involving a first arrest, an alternative, restorative justice resolution; designed not just to punish but to educate and promote community healing.”

Critical Therapy Center on "Critical Therapy" (bold emphasis added): https://criticaltherapy.org/critical-therapy-2/critical-therapy-theory/


Critical Therapy combines modern psychoanalytic techniques with the theory and practice of liberation psychology and critical pedagogy to pursue empowerment, liberation and healing.

From Freud and psychoanalysis, critical therapy uses important techniques such as: transference, dream analysis, and analyzing the resistances to understand family relationships and inter-generational patterns and feelings. From liberation psychology and critical pedagogy, critical therapy brings a commitment to social justice and an analysis of power relations in therapy, life, and society as refracted, for example, through categories of race, gender, class, and religion.

In critical therapy, the relationship between the therapist and the patient is one of partnership and collaboration, with a deep analysis of power. Power is at the core of critical therapy, from both an interpersonal perspective and in terms societal structures. Both therapist and patient analyze the world not only through the patient’s personal conflicts and feelings, but together, they also look at the patient’s position within society, her or his status in relation to power. They also question and analyze the therapist’s relation to power and position within society and how this affects and informs the therapeutic relationship.

The goal of critical therapy is to open new possibilities for action, new self-understanding; to reflect emotionally, socio-economically and politically, to act and to reflect again.

Black dog owner defends 'Central Park Karen,' says black birdwatcher threatened him as well

https://thepostmillennial.com/black-dog-owner-defends-central-park-karen-says-black-birdwatcher-threatened-him-as-well/

American News May 30, 2021 1:03 PM EST

In the recent law suit filed by white dog owner Amy Cooper against an ex-employer, a black dog owner said that black birdwatcher Christian Cooper threatened him as well: "I would of [sic] called the police on that guy too."

Amy Cooper, the white woman who went viral last year as "Central Park Karen" for calling 911 after an interaction with a black birdwatcher, has filed suit against her former employer for wrongful termination.

Contained in the suit is an email from black dog owner Jerome Lockett, whose message with NBC News details a similar interaction between himself and Christian Cooper in which the birdwatcher allegedly threatened him for having his dog off leash.

4/

"I’m a 30 year old African American dog owner living in NYC. I frequently take my dog to Central Park and
walk my dog with my friend and his dog (he’s a white man)."

"Christian comes yelling from about 10 yards away 'YOU NEED TO LEASH YOUR DOG!!!'"— Free Black Thought (@FreeBlckThought) May 28, 2021

According to Lockett, "Well, a few days later we're in there and Christian ... comes yelling from about 10 yards away 'YOU NEED TO LEASH YOUR DOG!!! THEY CAN’T BE OFF-LEASH IN HERE.' We both take a few steps back and my friend ask him if he works for the park and he says no. So we say 'sounds good, have a good one.' And when we turn our back he starts to try and make these noises to call our dogs to him." This is similar to how Amy Cooper said their interaction started.

6/

"I then ran over to him and pushed him away before he got too close to my dog. He then yelled for someone to record it. ... I said 'never fucking touch someone’s dog that isn’t threatening you and never threaten me again'.”— Free Black Thought (@FreeBlckThought) May 28, 2021

"I yelled, 'don’t try and call my dog to you!' He then says, 'if you're gonna do what you want, them [sic] I'm not gonna do what I want, but you're not gonna like it,'" Lockett wrote. This is also important to the lawsuit because this is the same "threatening" language Christian Cooper admitted to levelling towards Amy Cooper before he started recording her reaction.

Commenting on Amy Cooper's situation, Lockett said, "You can read his Facebook post where he tells the world he told her 'you're not gonna like what I'm going to do next.' That's a threat. And she has no idea if this man is pulling out a knife, a gun, or a treat that laced with a rat poison. If I wasn't who I was, I would of [sic] called the police on that guy too."

8/

"...how she may have genuinely been afraid for her life.

She may not be like me willing to physically defend herself or her dog. I understand the optics of this

video aren’t great, but people need to understand this man is a dick and probably did threaten her."— Free Black Thought (@FreeBlckThought) May 28, 2021

Amy Cooper is suing her former employer Franklin Templeton, an investment firm, for what she says is race-based and sex-based discrimination in her dismissal. Amy Cooper claims Franklin Templeton conducted a half-hearted investigation into the incident and played it up to the press, causing Amy Cooper emotional distress and harm. Amy Cooper says Franklin Templeton made her personal cell phone number easily accessible to the public which resulted in "threats and harassment based on race and gender," according to the law suit.

The law suit concluded, "As a result of [Franklin Templeton's] negligence, [Amy Cooper] has suffered severe emotional distress and will continue to do so in the future. Accordingly, the [Franklin Templeton employers] are liable to [Amy Cooper] in an amount to be determined at trial."

Jerome Lockett nor Christian Cooper responded immediately to a request for comment.

Christian Cooper seems to be parleying his new found fame and is hosting events for "Black Bird Watcher's Week" in North Carolina in June.

Apart from yanking that poor dog around in her distress, "Central Park Karen" did nothing wrong.

(Calling the cops was unwise, but understandable.)
