Out of curiosity: what causes the weight imbalance on such a plane? I don't follow
I don't disagree. I live in Italy and half the people keep their dog off leash. And this is in the city. When I lived in the Midwest it wasnt uncommon to see off leash dogs in parks. I'm not saying they aren't assholes, but you gotta pick your battles. Seems overkill to threathen someone's dog with treats.
It's hard for me to put myself in a woman's shoes, esp. one walking by herself in the park in an not very crowded area. Did she panic in the heat of the moment and actually feel threathened or was she a narcissistic prick that overreacted? Was he justified in escalating?
It seems to me he was aware that he had power over the situation and used that - even though he had reason to - threaten her dog. Which again: dog had no business being off leash. But is in justification to escalate the way he did? Lemmy seems to have made up their mind. I never both sides them. She clearly took it to an extreme end by involving the police. But again, I don't know the perspective of women in matters of close encounters such as these. And as Lemmy is like 90% men I don't think this convo will go beyond : racism bad; Karen got what she deserved.
Lemmy just seems hostile to women in general. But that's just my perspective. I could be wrong.
Oook. So we both agree he also escalated the situation? Maybe he was having a bad day or he was fed up with all the off leash dogs. I agree. I think I can totally understand. I can think of a million other ways to handle the situation. If you want him to be your hero that's fine. That lady was going to have her racist feelings revealed one way or another either way she had it coming.
simplest way to get her to leash her dog
It's also an escalation. Clearly he wasn't afraid of the dog. We all agree the dog should have been leashed but it's still an escalation of the confrontation.
I walk my dogs all the time leashed and run into other non-leashed dogs and their owners. I politely ask them to leash up because my dog has trauma and is gets very agitated around other dogs. But one thing I never do is threaten the other owner that I will "lure their dogs to me with treats". That's kinda hostile, dontcha think?
I m curious : what Third party apps worth checking out?
