What if it had been a white guy with two small black kids in the car? Outside of any suspicious behavior on his part, all the color thing tells you is the guy is not likely the father, depending of course on the kids' complexion and other such things.

Perhaps he was acting suspicious as well, at least in the woman's opinion.

This might be an example where we as conservatives should recognize bad behavior. Sure seems like racism going on here.

When the woman followed me to the gas station I would have called the police and reported her as stalking and possible child abduction.

All he had to do was let the white lady talk to the kids, but evidently he was a racist.

Babysitting While Black: Georgia Man Was Stalked by Woman as He Cared for 2 White Children
New York Times ^ | October 9, 2018 | Melissa Gomez

 

And at that time, I too thought Lewis was fishing for a fake hate crime angle

But if this is true....

“She pulls around to the car and she asks, ‘Are the kids alright?’ I said, ‘Why wouldn’t they be?’” Lewis told InsideEdition.com. “She gave a shoulder shrug. She left and then she came back … and said, ‘Can I speak to the little girl and ask her if she knows who you are?’ I said, 'No.'"

then yeah. She is friggin nuts and he had every right to be upset.

Consider it is Georgia, and the white folk have not moved up in processing things. I remember being the only white sitting in a mall, and I too felt uneasy. Being white, and having a mixed marriage as a daughter, and a full black little girl, we get some stares. I was moved deeply in East Dallas in a negro neighborhood and an older lady spoke to me when leaving the restaurant. THANKS FOR TAKING CARE OF THE WORLD. We really ARE our brothers keepers. I have a very blended family, Filipinos, Hispanic, Black and Asian.

Maybe this was an overreaction.

But people should consider that better to say something and have it turn out to be no problem, rather than the other way around that someone notices something suspicious, ignores it and children get hurt.

They were probably delivering them to Hillary for lunch.

Any male with children not obviously his can mean possible abduction.
Women too, but we have learned to trust them for practical reasons.
Where do one draw the line between speaking up to prevent a tragedy and not speaking up for fear of branding.

I can’t see how anyone using critical thinking skills can’t see this as anything but combo male and black profiling. Crazy lady stalking the dude. The kids clearly were not acting in distress in the video. Saying this as someone who despises identify politics.... but I’m not stupid and call it when I see it.

The mother said her children, Addison and Nicholas, were frightened for Lewis when the officer questioned him.

“They said they were scared that they would say the wrong thing and cause him to get arrested,” Mango said, adding that her children love Lewis like a member of the family.

She said Lewis has for two years picked up her son from school every day and babysat until the parents are off work. Lewis "had to go to a wedding for a week, and every day Nicholas asked when he was coming back," Mango said.

The woman does sound like a Nosey Nellie but perhaps it's a little over the top to get bent out of shape about it.

123 missing kids recovered in Michigan during one-day operation

That's a lot of kids in one place who didn't have anyone watching out for them at some critical moment of their lives.

If you see something say something*

*Unless its a person from a group liberals like. then shut up or you’re a waycissss

This is the typical war on white people garbage from the media, to them— all white people are racist aholes who constantly call the cops on black people for no reason because they’re evil white people, yeah right.

How many times do whites call police on other whites for questionable reasons? probably more, but he media doesn’t report that.

Or perhaps this woman's nose was just too damn long!! In this day of interracial marriage, only a dork would automatically assume that a black man couldn't be the father of two white children.

I hope that guy makes a major stink...about the lady. I haven't yet seen any of the cop's story, but just remember...without Nosy McNoserstein sticking her nose into it, the cops would not have been involved. The police have to respond to EVERY call of child endangerment...I as a parent and grandparent am glad the cops have to respond.

From the info we have, there is really nothing to defend here.

The woman meant well, but the reported basis for her report was way out of line.
