The way her language was coded to threaten the birdwatcher makes my blood boil. You can tell she knows about police violence, about the anxiety lots of black men have when dealing with the police, about unjust killings and the type of policing that killed George Floyd...And she uses it as a tool to bat away this innocent man who's done nothing wrong. It's such a concrete and vicious threat, and it infuriates me.

All this as she chokes her dog for some reason. What a trash person.
