A white woman who was filmed blocking a black man from entering the St. Louis loft building where they live has denied that she is racist and says she was concerned for her safety.

Toles said he was coming home from work on Friday night when Thornton physically blocked him from entering.

The 24-year-old filmed the incident as Thornton, who was holding a glittery phone and her dog on a leash, demanded to know what apartment he lived in.

Correct. Do not engage. Monitor and contact management.

“She cannot prohibit residents from entering the building.”

She CAN prohibit anyone who won’t prove he’s a resident from entering the building.

"...Never assume the role of security for the building..."


Completely concur.
Somehow missed your excellent response when reading the thread.
I shared a very similar sentiment in Post# 100 on the previous page.

So true! They may have directed people to not open secured doors for individuals who were not buzzed in or did not have a fob. Monitor and report if someone is in that you don’t recognize.

Condo owners are more vigilant about security because unlike apartments, they OWN the building. Still, no Association should promise security as one of its duties; the liability is too great. Crime happens, bad things happen. Access mitigation is the only thing the Association can offer, with no guarantee.

I think it all started off by her flirting with him.

He rebuked her advances, and it went bad from there.

Big mistake.

You two need to hook up

Lots in common

For the record given crime stats for those of us who live in high percentage black environs ...unlike most virtue signaling posters here....I think it’s appropriate suspicious of black males

I certainly am when accosted.....

However I think this lady should have let up when she saw he had a key to his unit

She’s not as bad as the fat white cowlady in the golf cart callling the cops to the dad at the soccer game

So intro made

You two share notes and hugs

Bull she’s a race lib like you

You know I’m not a race lib....although I was once hard to fathom huh

I don’t know if she’s a South basher though I’ll have to look

Hey I criticized the lady for being overboard and I was really mean about the golf cart fatty

Both instances I took the minority’s side ....rights right ..color ain’t much to do with that

You owe me a pat on the head

I want my full worth of virtue signaling bask so I can know how it feels

Thanks in advance

Sorry. I don’t respond to demands from strangers to produce paperwork to prove my residency.

Incorrect. I would simply use my key and walk in.
When some busybody demands “proof” of residency, they would get ignored.

He only had an apartment key-—NOT a key,or fob,for the outside door.

Exactly. This is the new trend: Each woman is videotaped, assigned a funny name, and then derided all over the internet.

In some cases, a woman is being a busybody. But, in most cases, the person filming is overreacting, too, and sometimes really is breaking a rule, or simply putting a spin on the story.

This guy should’ve told her to close the door so that he could buzz himself in.
Then, if she didn’t let him close the door, he should’ve reported her.
But, no, he wanted a video to put on the internet. And he got one.

From the start it struck me that she was doing exactly what apartment residents are constantly told to do.

I wonder how many crimes are committed in a year due to residents letting criminals slip through security behind them?

They of course can’t find any white women committing crimes against minority men. So the best they can do is find white women afraid of becoming victims of minority men — and somehow appearing un-PC in the process.

When the video starts, she has flirty eyes.

Then it gets a little crazy.
