Looking a the excerpt and your post, you would feel this was a clear case of SRB (sudden racist behavior).
Not so.
Yolanda left her dog in the car in Arizona summer heat, people becoming concerned about the animal (windows up or down, you never leave an animal in the heat like that), and people called the authorities because they were concerned about the welfare of the animal, and then they let her have it when she came out.
Not just a simple I’ll-attack-you-because-I’m-a-racist story. Even Yolanda admits they ranted at her because of her dog being left in the heat.
Exceprt:
“They left Ahmed’s German shepherd in the car with the windows rolled down, which they now regret. While they were inside the building, others noticed the dog in the car and one of the county’s workers called Animal Services. Three women waited at the car in the parking lot, and Ahmed and Allison encountered them when they came out to check on the dog.
“They started yelling at us,” said Ahmed, who got the dog out of the car. “They followed us back to the building.”
When Yolanda came out of the building, the three women surrounded her and followed all of them back to the car, berating her for leaving the dog in the car and telling Ahmed that his dog was going to be taken away. Eventually the verbal assault turned nasty, with racial slurs being hurled at Yolanda, who remained silent.
. . .
“You – your kind. You’re the ones that give the brown people a bad name,” the woman said, pointing at her own skin. [clearly referring to leaving the dog in the heat can be viewed as typical mexican behavior] “Just (expletive) want to get something for nothing. Well, get your ass a job if you don’t have one.” [of course this part is only one small part of the entire incident, involving three women but focusing on one only, totally glossing over the animal abuse going on]
Agreed, the calling of animal welfare was warranted, so then, sit down, shut up, and let them get cited. So instead of a racist screecher getting in someones face, you have an animal nut thinking its ok to start verbally assaulting somone, surrounding them with two others in a threatening manner, then dropping a few generalities. The larger point is that this level of discourse is constantly derided by many on this board, unless of course, it fits our agenda. I submit that if this was three BLMs acting the same way about the animal first, then dropping a few white privilege bombs, the response would be different.
