B-b-but the NRA told us that if everybody would buy a gun there would be less altercations!!!

If it werent for the fact that these young men were even tempered and that they were also filming this, another I was afraid for my life episode could have happened

Eh.
If you're visiting your friend, have them come let you in the building.
Don't get confrontational with one of the residents if they're not letting you in.
Don't act sketchy and try to get in an elevator with someone you were arguing with 6v1.
It isn't racist.

That was dumb of him. If they jumped him (assuming they somehow kept their composure), he'd still lose. And now they'd have a reason to use deadly force. He just escalated everything for no reason.

Another white resident intervened to help the FAMU students get into the building.

Chad stepped in to help us because the other white man was being racist by not letting us in," Isaiah Thomas, one of the four FAMU students, told the Famuan.

In the video, the man identified as Chad said, "You're just not man enough to go about your day."

*need a key to enter apartment complex*
*waits for a stranger to unlock the door*
*try to force their way in*

Now if only the elevator needed a key as well.

Hey were just here to visit a friend, now unlock the elevator for us as well

Basic apartment security protocols and civic vigilance is racist. Or something.

So after reading the article: man is keeping non residents off the elevator, group starts talking shit and trying to force their way onto the elevator, and then group cries racism when the guy theyre attempting to physically overpower pulls a gun. Would it have been that hard just to call your friend to come down and get you? The whole exchange could have been avoided.

certain people routinely let other people into their apartments without even asking if they look like they're stuck

source: me getting let into apartments by passing strangers who don't even think for another second whether or not i belong there; i'm asian btw

it was a large group of swanky young men it pays to be cautious. in your scenario you're just one guy non threatening and you say you live there like what would you even do by yourself if you didn't have a key to your room? the person could even visually see you enter your apartment if they were suspicious even

they should have still not gotten offended. They could easily wait and call their friend down but they didn't so that's on them. He was right to be cautious when a group of young men are trying to force their way.

1. The guy doesn't even live in those apartments. Apparently the elevator needs a key too so it's not like they could have gone up
2. He has no authority to brandish a gun in that circumstance. He clearly was trying to threaten them with the chance of violence. And anybody in the USA right now is heavily aware of the implications behind a certain man with a gun and minorities
3. If he thought there was suspicious activity he has other avenues to follow other than blatantly discriminatory behavior (he stops them from going up but has no qualms with the white kid with them)

Why in the hell do certain people keep acting like someone has to come out and call a group of black people the n-word while doing things in order for them to be racist

You can't tell people how to feel. You can tell them how they probably could have reacted, but telling people how to feel is not your place. People are entitled to their emotions, but they're responsible for how they respond.

And that doesn't explain away the different standards of treatment.
