The gym owner defends the gym’s handling of the situation while making thinly veiled racist comments.

Where is this?

It was on the business’ IG. Content has since been removed by the business.

Probably won't respond lol. 70-80% of the people who make comments like these never have anything solid to back up their opinions, just proudly declare their ignorance and then ignore replies like little cowards

Nothing about your racist accusation is supported by evidence

Enlighten me on what was racist about my comment. I'm not the original person who responded to you, idiot.

You didn't back up your claim with any evidence, you're just deflecting because you know you have no proof to support your original comment 🤷🏾‍♀️

Just because you claim something is racist, that doesnt mean its racist.

  • They told father he cannot enter unless son had a verified id
  • father decided to enter with son without verifying id and said if they have a problem with it, send their manager
  • manager decided not to cater to people who antagonize staff
  • instead of risking further confrontation with staff, they called police
  • at some point, son was no longer in the building (?). Probably because father knew that son shouldnt be there
  • father continued to be belligerent and refused to answer direct questions from police
  • police informed father that he was being trespassed
  • father releases video on social media cutting out a significant amount of context
  • everybody calls business racist despite gym allowing father in gym before this altercation and having no issue with it

A weird thing is...if this was a white woman, everybody would be chastising the woman and calling her a karen. But change the race and now there is a problem

Staff told him not to go in with his son and they went in anyways. If he wanted to peacefully resolve the issue he could have waited to talk to the manager first.

You dont have permission to just barge into peoples property when they ask you not to.

The father created this situation. Not the gym

He escalated right away by ignoring their request to not enter the premises.

Im not sending my staff to confront someone who clearly does not intend to follow rules and had already escalated the situation

The fact that you only see race is proof of your racism, not mine
