I read about this incident in the NY Post this morning and my first thought was, "what a b*tch". First, getting upset when someone asked her to just obey the rules posted for that park. Talk about entitled!

Then, the blatant racism - a young man videotapes her while he politely asks her to put her dog on a leash and she goes into "he's a scary black man, let's call the police" - apparently she thought he was trying to poison her dog with a treat he offered? Then, after manhandling the poor dog, she returns it to the shelter! On no level does she come across well in this incident.
