This wouldn't even raise an eyebrow when I was a kid, even if the adult stranger threw in a free can of whoopass for the kid. Admittedly those were different times, and Britbongistan is not Eastern Europe.

There's this thing called "anarcho-tyranny", or "two tier policing" as the Brits would have it.

Because girls don't know a lot about intimidation. Not even on the streets.

I'm saying: not even trying, not trying and failing.

I am suspicious of all short videos.

As per the link from jkf, the dude is a """digital creator""". This video is short, because that's how he wanted it, which means he's hiding something. The quotes in the paper make him sound like OJ Simpson.

I'm calling it / doubling down: the whole thing is fake. She's not Braveheart, and he's not a poor migrant targeted by racist chavettes, which is what this video was originally meant to show, but backfired. The only thing left to find out is if he's working for an NGO.

In the 45 seconds of footage I saw, the girl start out keenly aware that brandishing her weapons on camera is bad, wrong, or illegal. This is why the video starts with her hiding the weapons. Called out, the punk instinct kicks in, and she reveals her weapons.

That's the part that doesn't make sense to me. She doesn't look like she's even trying to be intimidating, and the punk instinct in this specific situation is to run, not to try to scare away a guy twice your size.

The other part that is suspicious is the length of the video. Why is it so short? Ok, maybe this is where he turned on the camera - why isn't it played until the situation is concluded? It obviously belongs to the guy, did he upload it? This specific cut of it?

Just like it was possible that Kyle Rittenhouse was a white supremacist, and that possibility carries on to the present.

The Rittenhouse narrative that the media tried to drum up made no sense from the start, it wasn't a case ofnmissing context.

I knew something was up with this when the alleged assailant was the one who recorded the video.

As others pointed out, this is completely nornal behavior from various creeps.

I agreed with Hoffmeister when he said something was off about this. In particular, the girl's behavior doesn't exactly scream "big sister trying to scare away stranger" or whatever was being sold. On the other hand, the way the video conveniently starts off not showing any context, and the way she meekly displays her weapons when pushed is inconsistant with whatever you guys are trying to sell.

...and it's completely irrelevant to cases such as thus one...

Plus, honestly, at this point, are you sure? This seems to have been true 20-ish years ago, when conservative culture in America had some slrt of presence. Nowadays? I'm not sure I'm seeing it. Do you have any examples in mind?

Depends what you mean by "happen", as I was half-joking. There was a guy recording himself following some woman around the park. I think her dog was somewhere where they weren't allowed, and the guy was complaining about that. She wanted to be left alone, but after being ignored for too long, he pulled out some dog treats out of his pocket, and tried to get the dog to come to him. She freaked out, and started screaming that if he doesn't stop, she'll call the cops and tell th a creepy black man is stalking her. This during BLM times was seen as an implied death threat. She promptly became the face of racism, I thinkbshe lost her job, and for a while even her dog.

I don't think any NGO was involved, that part was the joke, but honestly at this point nothing would surprise me.

If this were the case, why is he following them around and filming? He’s walking toward them, and they’re backing away, not the other way around. Certainly I can believe that the two girls are not, themselves, “innocent” exactly. But it is very weird to follow two teenage girls around the park with a camera.

Okay, I got my conspiracy theory.

This was all pre-planned by one of those creepy NGOs to be a Central Park Karen situation kicking off Boat Migrant Lives Matters, except it backfired by being YesChadded into orbit.

Then they'd split in a second, and disappear in a metaphorical puff of smoke, not wait around until the dude pulls out a phone and starts recording. Even if he was quick on the draw, all you'd see is their backs running towards the horizon.

Every weapon-wielding chav has to start somewhere

They usually start with people smaller than them, not twice their size.

Nope, I'm willing to bet on this. Maybe the situation is more complicated than the rightoids say, but it's definitely not what you're saying.

I want to register my prediction that the story of this video is far, far more complicated than what is being presented by agitprop Twitter accounts. (A bold prediction, I know.)

Is there at least a decent possibility that this girl and her sister are helpless victims of harassment by scummy Pakistani men and neglect by a heartless police bureaucracy? Sure! But we have plenty of teenagers here in America who carry weapons to use on each other, or occasionally on bystanders from outside their social class.

I'll grant that something feels off about the video, but I rate her chances of being a dual-wielding chav even lower than the pure victim narrative. I've met girls who could pull a knife on you (gypsies), this one never used one in her life.
