Just think if a cop was in the area and rushed over right away and the outcome of that situation was injury or death of that innocent man. It saddens me just thinking about it. She was just pissed that a black man had the audacity to tell her to leash her mutt.

p.s. We all know she'll get a second chance and find a job pretty quick .
