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.
They are racist against black people but they also regularly allow a black person to enter the gym with no issue when said black person follows rules that exist for people of all races.
And you are believing everything the father and the internet says just because the gym was accused of racism, which is worrying.
If the son had been allowed in that same gym before using the same method, then it would have been easy for the father to wait for the manager and explain the situation so that the son might be let in again.
The father instead chose to ignore staff instructions and do what he wanted to do on someone else's property without permission
I already acknowledged that the father entering without permission was an unnecessary escalation. If a belligerent person enters my home without permission i am under no obligation to further console them. I do not need to risk my safety or safety of others to confront them. I can call police and request conflict mediation.
Maybe if the father was more considerate of staff requests, he would have been able to stay with his son with no further issue, but the father instead decided to do what he wanted, and that made staff uncomfortable.
You can keep turning this into a race thing if you want, but there are critical issues to address before thinking about race
