- A Wellington man explains to WPTV how he believes his granddaughter was singled out by another man in a confrontation that he believes has to do with the color of her skin.
This is painful to watch. This man is struggling to call racism by name. Sir call it out. Your neighbor is a racist. Your hurt is palpable and racism is also palpable. Please speak up NOW! Your family is counting on you.
He still has to live there
@Postelle Birch.... I was thinking the SAME THING !!!
it's NAUSEATING
Yes!!!!
Postelle Birch I noticed that too. He wouldn't even say hey friends were white... He's just waking up to the racism in Wellington. The funny thing is that guy said that he's been there for five years and he's speaking out about who belongs to there smdh... He probably retired to florida...not even home grown but this man has been there since the 80s with no problems.
Wow, that's a nice looking 62 year old grandpa.
Yes he is!!😀❤ lol
and young. My grandpa is 95. 62 and a grandpa already, lol. not even old.
Very handsome.
Lol 😂 oh my gosh😂🤣 pop pop is fine huh?
Calm down ladies.
Don't be afraid to use the word racism.
He a sellout a nd thought he had arrived with his white wife and all. A wake up call
Shelly Ann Lewis i think that was a hate crime.
He was trying so hard to not call it racism
He really. Just call a spade a spade. That old white man is a racist.
That world is losing its sting and he knows it. There may also be underlying issues with this neighbor who he is having to live with. And he wants to make sure it’s not washed under the rug as just more racism. You will never get rid of it. If you go to any country you will find native people who do not want outsiders there. It’s no different here except it’s from outsiders?? We r all outsiders here except for the native Americans. It’s just sad he had to experience this. But this man can see that this is one incident in years and years . He was otherwise happy. So it’s not prevalent. But it does happen. And it’s a sore spot for the black Americans. See white people deal with Karen’s all the time but we blow it off as nosy nellies. But when the black Americans deal with it even if it’s just a nosy Nellie and she isn’t racist that is how it FEELS. And that is sad.
Eber Yahuan Say it again for those who read but fail to discern.
He has a white wife and thought he was insulated. He couldn't even use the word racism. Thought he had arrived.
@Eber Yahuan you're apart of the problem also. Wtf does him having a white wife have to do with anything? My wife is white and I can promise you, she don't play about racism. This man may just not wanna call it what it is for some other reasons 🤷🏿♂️ We know what it was! He gotta deal with that and deal with his neighbor.
It's a lucky thing his granddaughter wasn't walking alone
Amen she might not have made it home. He needs to wake up.
Exactly right
Why does he have one green button at the top of his vest? Something is wrong! Can he be trusted???
@Bohanable Bo what do you mean by that? Because he uses proper diction? What is supposed to sound like?
@@jonothandoeser can you be trusted. Your words are instigating in a negative way. A green button! Looking for something negative.
You have all right to raise your voice at him , for messing with the kids.
Him: "that's, that's not correct I had to go back and look"
He so nice this fool could come back!
I wish he would have beat the breaks off of that racist.
This man has a beautiful soul! So sorry you and your family had to deal with this nonsense.
@Eber Yahuan
A coward wouldn't storm out to confront a threat to his loved one(s).
He seems like a concerned, selfless, grandparent who works with the less fortunate, a community hero who was unfortunately targeted by a criminally insane racist.
@Eber Yahuan he's and educated and eloquent. We all know what he was saying without using that word. He also said he was of faith. I'm an atheist and I can see he's a true practicing theist. Strength isn't about yelling out profanity and puffing your chest like the guy who followed the girls.
@Eber Yahuan
Ok, you just said something interesting..., "if that Black man would have done that he would be dead."
What you described as the suitable response could have caused the death of the grandfather had the police come. I fully agree he was evasive when explaining this was pure RACISM, but he's a wise, brave gentleman that appropriately responded to a threat against his granddaughter without getting himself needlessly killed.
@Maria Lynch
👍🏼Stay well & prosper.
Guy was real brave until grandpa showed up
Very classy and polite grandfather.
@Eber Yahuan
When was he cowardly?
Too polite ... way too polite
Aida Yohannes He absolutely is!
Eber Yahuan every person that want to blast head, doesn’t mean they are a coward...geesh! RUclips gangsters
Grandad there is racism even inside the gates of Wellington. Surprise
Tracy Hawkins wake up call
Can't hide from racism ! I don't care how much money and where you live. Get a grip. He's racist. Sorry you can't call a thing a thing. One of those I don't think the world is still prejudice. 😎😎😎😎
Racism is everywhere. As long as Satan is on this earth, racism will exist. When the Great Day of Armageddon comes then racism will no longer exist.
@@sunshinecreole1319 so true 🙏🙏
This "gentleman" spent so much time saying nothing..smh
You have video evidence..he followed her onto your property...h im fi get dus out.
He is a remarkable human being. And so thoughtful and self-disciplined under duress. It’s painful to see what he and his family are enduring.
Sad as hell this country belongs to the Native Americans and stolen from them . While African's were stolen from there country and brought here to be in salves .
The fact that he knew the child marriage laws off the top of his head is beyond creepy.
I didn't catch that 🤔
Antonia Mills I agree Racism and Pedophilia is not mutually exclusive. Since he truly didn’t believe he lived here he could’ve seen the opportunity to isolate her, and then knows lotta what have happened. Does anybody know what the police say?
@@antoniamills3000 in the video the girls took. In response to them say "we're children, we are 15". He said "you can get married in missippi and ... at 15."
I think he was implying they weren't that young but it is very creepy argument.
@Ebony_Love_R_007 it was in a another video
@@1RainDear i meant that i didnt hear the marriage comment in this video, I've since heard elsewhere
Notice how the kids were not sassy and listened to their grandpa.
Respect goes both ways....I’m glad this guy is so composed.
I mean if he lost his mind and it escalated to putting hands on racist it’d be completely justified too. Thank god for he kept it cool.
Nothing wrong with being sassy
Geovana Jalio
Nothing wrong with good behavior
either way, his response was inappropriate. because he could have gotten himself, his granddaughter and the others *killed* by attempting to engage that 'man' in a rational conversation.,who was OBVIOUSLY wired to BE such a dangerous racist..and who was obviously LYING and *failing MISERABLY* at fighting his own super-racist wiring...that perpetrator is among the scariest ones because they, their nervous system [which includes the brain], seems to be 'logged in' to a very wrong kind of radio signal that they're picking up..and those are the kind of people who not only have NO intellectual curiosity but who NEVER question their own thoughts - all of which makes them astoundingly dangerous.
@@stacyeandrew2 being sassy is not necessarily a bad behavior.
they asked for help... why would they be "sassy". that is a completely inappropriate natural response from someone soliciting help from someone. grandparent or otherwise
I like this guy, can tell he's a genuinely good human.
All this is good and well but none of if means anything if charges are not filed.
Why do you say you like him? Is it bcz he's not aggressive? Or he's not saying calling out racism
@@Ljksn-tf7dk why would you ask me a question, then choose the answers you want me to give you
@@SoFLaZ06 I'm not choosing your answers, I know people "like" the more non-confrontational...
@@Ljksn-tf7dk my initial comment answered your question.
He didn't care about golf carts it was black teens he had a problem with.
It sounds like the other girls were not black!!!
Well, your granddaughter and "YOU" need to realize that you are black, and many of the racist white folk in the neighborhood you chose to live in, don't want you there!!! You can't be surprised ! If you are, then I'm SMH! We need to build our own upscaled neighborhoods and live our lives in peace.
@@sylvialopez296 who cares what they want, he can live where he wants. Maybe the racist should move out.
these the kind black dude get hang like the bird watcher
BINGO!!!!!
I wish people would stop calling these rude ones ""gentlemen, lady, mam " and other described terms of respect. They don't deserve such terms.

@@ladylydia762 its reserved for use by people that respect others -- but in some situations such as you-- I would hold back and just use the word YOU smh
Hallelujah say it again! Me too!
I'm not so polite any more instead I say it like I feel it adding as much flavor as I please.
This man seems very much a gentleman himself. It’s probably his habit to call all people in respectful terms. Even if they DON’T deserve it.
I concur and stop conversing with them that goes for any Karen's, Becky's, Christy's, Ken's, Billy Bob's ect.
This was Very Depressing... Starting with the Boys Running and Leaving the Girls.
2ndly Our Brother communicating his Pain trying NOT to lose his cool and using Neutral Words and expressions to describe what happened and how his Grand Daughter feels...
Very Depressing... 🤬😡😔😞🇳🇬🇺🇸
Unfortunately, as the generations move forward, the young men get more and more selfish. They desire to be treated like women
He a sellout till NoW. A WHITE wife I betcha
There was a guy i saw close the door and lock a. Girl outside with 2 guys because he said she wasnt his problem. People said umm you couldnt atleast let her in he said no. Why? The he started laughing.
I dont understand why pur young men and men of our age are so selfish and weak. Its saddening
@@patriciarambert9261 stop that! This is just rude and pointless. What do you gain from calling out this man? What does it matter who his wife is? Check your intentions, please!
@Lady Melanin nah I see dudes 26 running and giggling talking about he hit her thats nun of my business. I knew the world was over when I saw the video of tbe white dude like 37 saying "he saw the predator grab his child, but he didnt get in the middle of it because that's how he was raised." Omg wtf so u see ur kid get snatched and your thought is.... Mind your business wtf??? What kind of father is that
Omg this man is so amazing. No wonder that man acted like that he was jealous
Mel Moore, This man is smart, intelligent, Christian, handsome with plenty of money!!! Watch as well as pray!!! That racist devil is alive!!!
@@marciabyrd980 Exactly! I can smell the racist attitude from here
Sir no disrepect BUT U DONT WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT SAY RACISM PERIOD
He can not because he feel uncomfortable his wife is white. His kids are mixed and he just got brought down to reality. No matter how you move near whites, marry white, you are still black and you will be treated as such. Eye opening he needed that. Trust me. Its called a reality check.
Right dont talk about it just say it, this was probably his first racism incident.
Id like to know what planet he comes from where being black (which he struggled to say) has the highest honor of privilege
@Marisol white I get it.
This man is beating around the bush way too much!!
What a lovely man and I'm so sorry your grandchild, her young friends and you had to experience this horrible man. Please know you are an inspiration.
There's names for grown men that follow young girls!
He is having a HARD TIME with this situation. I guess he really thought things would be different for him and his grand daughter! He got the, you are still black wake up reminder!
That's right! 💯
This man thought marrying out would change his blackness.
Facts!
He can live where he wants. I like the fact he is articulated and accurate.
No matter how far you run and wherever you go there you are. Money and privilege can only take you so far.
It's called racism you've seen it before WE ALL HAVE
@Eber Yahuan B-I-N-G-O
Great grandfather. Sorry your family had to experience this.
12:35 This is another Trayvon Martin/ George Zimmerman trying to get home😪
The description is very close. Man follows a teenager on his way home. Yeah. Thank God her home was closer.
Respectability politics is not going to save black people!
Exactly, that will be TMH job as he promised.
You are absolutely correct
When he said the guy said I’m 62 yrs old, and I’ve been here for 5 yrs, the proper response would’ve been DAYUM!!! I’m 62 as well! I thought you were at LEAST 75! My bad 🤷🏾♀️
And running around tearing down monuments and rioting will?
*it hasn't since the 50s.*
Man. They’re the exact same age and he looks 10-15 years younger.
Hate makes people age in dog years.
Black Dont Crack mane 😆!
He takes good care of himself.
He is a well spoken and obviously successful man - however, his restraint and calm is an example of how we as “African Americans” have to respond to injustice or we will be viewed as aggressive and violent. This man had every right to lay hands on that fool. If the situation was reversed and a black man chased a fifteen year old white girl home we all know what the outcome would be. Having the right to be outraged and enraged is white privilege.
Very true and well said. That man doesn't deserve the calm response of this grandfather.
You are absolutely correct. Thank you.
You freak, most people are WELL SPOKEN you must remember white people were living in Europe in Caves!
Well spoken? Why because he sounds like white folk. This guy has been wakened from a very delusional world.👏🏾👏🏾 He said this is a 1st. It's not his 1st, he's just starting to wake up NOW that his world is shaken, no longer THOSE PPL now its him.
Can’t give them an excuse to justify in hindsight. So unfair but until people stop thinking being black is their first sin, gotta be sure they can’t use it to their advantage.
Accept NO apologies!
Was the white man charged with aggravated assault?? Traumatizes young girls!😤
He has the voice of a radio personality
No homo, but this brother looks DAM GOOD for a 62 year old! Im glad to see this brother isn't only taking great care of himself and his family, but he thinks well, and its clear that he lives well... & i personally think that's what triggered the racist tirade from the angry white man...
62 AINT OLD. HE STILL YOUNG. LOL
@@meemeethecat7391 When you're living in a country where the peak of a BLACK MAN'S life Expectancy doesnt exceed the age of 25, yes, 62 is very old... That's ELDER status! 62 may have been considered young back in your day, but it's a different day & time now, and people are dying much younger at alot higher numbers than they were a long time ago.
I think so to.
He is an example of what "they" must've hated about Black Wall Street. More money, more educated, more class, more EVERYTHING. Same for what "they" did on Wilmington as well. Imagine a whole city of him. Whew. Blank excellence sir! You made it. Hold on to it now.
He has a white wife I bet you
I think we all KNOW WHY that guy was so angry
He's obviously a well educated man, and self made. To be living in a community like that in Florida, he runs his own business, is CEO, Doctor or Surgeon etc... or has done something to make his way in the world. Good for him. The attitude of the neighbor, is, sadly, one found throughout the south--"You're black! You can't possibly be educated and have a nice home, good business etc..." The white old guy is a sad joke. Hope they can prosecute.
So a black person has to be all these things to live in a well to do neighborhood??
OMG😡
@@Michelle-jz8vl any person does... I say this as a black person, if you don't put in the work, you won't get the nice house/car, etc. Nobody owes you ****, you don't just get to live in a nice house because you want to.

Clearly you didn’t read the statement correctly. It doesn’t matter what the color of your skin is, but you can’t expect to live in a nice neighborhood like that without putting in the work to do so.

Where were the other neighbors who I'm sure were witnessing this display? Why didn't anyone else come to these girls' rescue? ijs
The neighbor across the street.. DID get involved..& stayed outside while the man was harassing the girls SHE waited til the grandpa came out ..& calmed the girls down!
Audrey Wheeler-Downing I didn’t see that in the video I looked at. Do you have the link?
S J I saw an old video when it first came out... it’s right before the girl says she s gonna get her grandpa.. the woman is on the left... & tells her “that she was fine & did nothin wrong”
Audrey Wheeler-Downing ok thanks!
@@SJ-ql2gx The man said. I talked to my neighbor and she said she could see the man's rage and waited to make sure they were safe and "then she went inside" he said that in this video. I wanted to know did she call the police? Or she ended her involvement once he (Granddad) came out.
It's affecting all of us on every financial level. The hate is real. Dude followed them like a freak! Luckily his granddaughter got help. Could have been a weird Trayvon situation. He wants to over look it, but it struck an feeling he can't escape. So much is over looked. It is what it is. Good dude.
I'm happy that he was well spoken and an educated man. All I need him to do now is call a spade a spade. That man was a racist. Call him what he is and then make sure your community knows who he is so you all can deal with him accordingly
It took him 20 minutes to verbalize the fact that it was race related. That’s the real problem, cognitive dissonance. Similar to when a rape victim blames herself for the rape.
I don't disagree with you. My opinion is it took him mins to explain that it was racially motivated. He hints about it.... Not sure if you are black but it's self explanatory to me... Don't be so negative on something that u don't pay attention to... Just my opinion... Thanks
Reginald Carter I’m sorry if It came across negative, but his internal conflict appeared so obvious.
This and a victim internalizing her rape are NOT thw same. Don't make comparisons of things you dont understand!
@@Kflash3782 He got his wake up call and he can't believe It
FACT. COGNITIVE DISSONANCE.
This guy way too nice
Much to polite. I would have put hands on him quick.
Why are you afraid to call it what is is?? Are you shocked your granddaughter doesn't want to talk about it? listen at yourself.
THABK YOU SISTER! Not my granddaughter...NEVER!
So sorry for this but it happens to much. My heart goes out to you and your family for I to know all to well.
OMG

FLORIDA....NEVER surprised. Hate runs thru their veins. And for the grandfather, praying for you. You thought racism didn't exist in your community?? IT'S FLORIDA!
Racism is everywhere not just Florida. Most people in Florida are not from Florida like myself.
Did he get arrested or charged?
This man is a class act!! I see so much emotion when he is telling this story.
That's bad when you can't even live in your own place comfortably.

Tony "Granpa" Nelson for Mayor of Wellington, FL!!!
I could listen to this man talk all day!
Shout out to Tony Nelson for being composed and thoughtful in recalling how his granddaughter Breonna was racially profiled and harassed by Lee Jeffers.
He's a much better person than me -- because I may have inflicted harm onto Lee Jeffers. Lee Jeffers would have become George Zimmerman in my eyes -- and I would have "stood my ground" in order to protect my family and my property.
Salute, good brotha for being upstanding and composed.
True Story.
This guy had hate directed towards his granddaughter and it's on video, yet he lacks the courage to call out racism.
Sorry sir but "Do you have a backbone?"
Speak up man...!

Great work...
This man is very respectable... It called it out in more ways than one. In a language that those that need to hear it. Sometimes you have to know how to speak the language of the people you trying to reach.
He is NOT acting off of emotions.. Which is hard for the majority of us.
Thank you! Someone said it!
I know this gentleman and he’s literally always poised and always eloquent in how he comports himself. What a pillar of the community!
SHANE BECKFORD - He may in fact be all those things, but he is also loquaciously PC to the point of being annoying. Seems to go out of his way-or certainly delay- calling a spade a spade. Speak succinctly-get to the point, and do so with conviction, You cannot always worry about how people (especially white people) receive it.
@@MrOu83 He can also not be worried about what you think. You are just like the white people you curse. Always expecting rage and noise. This man spoke clearly and was strong in what he said. Your comment is annoying. He was to the point. He showed conviction. He showed love for his family. You want him to act aggressive so that the mob come to him and terrorize his family?
Maybe you need to step back and think!!! Black people need to talk in code. He was speaking in code and I heard him clearly. We don't have to share everything with our oppressors. Damn! We don't even have to share with our own kind. Some of you can't be trusted.
I'd like to say Florida is awful but sadly this is everywhere in America. Despite the fact that mist black people do NOT live in the hood, are not thugs, pay taxes and obey the law, we are still viewed as ONE type of people. Even though it's clear to many that that is not the case. Therefore, I am left to believe that this is just a choice. To be racist. It's so sad. So very sad.
Mark Simmons What a ridiculous response. Of course it’s racist. _That’s the sad thing she’s referring to._ And calling it sad doesn’t imply anything, least of all that it can be fixed. It would obviously be much sadder to imagine it cannot.
Mark Simmons Another ridiculous response. In no way was I acting woke, and no reasonable human would claim that I was. I didn’t even comment on a social issue. I was responding exclusively to your condescending and nonsensical comment, which, by the way, is public and fair game.
Troy Gonzalez You’re not even responding to anything I said.
Mark Simmons I wasn’t talking about racism, or any social issue. I only responded to how rude and irrational your comment was. Get that through your head and carry on.
Generally, when people say, “I’ll be honest...” it means they are lying. HOWEVER, in this case, he is struggling to override his programming and training to give white people the benefit of the doubt and it’s hurtful for him. That’s why he had to watch the video so many times he’s looking for another reason for the man’s actions. It’s the end of the world as he has known it and he just woke up.
You can tell ,that woke him up! 🍀
Very well said 👍
I lived in Wellington. That city is very racist especially the schools. I was called a n word just walking home.
I love Grandpa Tony, very handsome.

You are naive to think he does not understand. This brother clearly is wealthy, educated and has a position where he needs to stay calm. He spoke louder than someone shouting and cursing.
So the other 2 Friends who were boys just took off in the golf cart leaving them to fend for themselves....yikes.
My thoughts exactly. What happen to the boys who ran off and left the girls to fend for themselves. 😐
Yea I'm sure they ran cause they knew they was probably in even more danger that's what those videos do to kids it wasn't right but can you blame them? I kinda think if the guys stayed it probably would have gotten worse.
I thi k the boys would have been more of a target for rage.
YESSS because those boys knew that that man was out of his mind and their very lives were at stake. Sad fact and reality of how our children have to be in this world. THIS is why people are protesting. You can think or believe what you like, that's your choice, but what you CANNOT do is mistreat people because of your bias.
Or they was white and left them to die.
A true gentleman I salute you sir.
This is why I never believed Zimmerman
Wow
No one should've ever believed Zimmerman.
This grandfather is the best!
That is a great point. It's is not so much for Nelson to calm down, but for that racist guy to be educated.
KeninBoulder - Here we go with trying to “educate” racists BS. That’s not our responsibility.
The aggressor is very lucky.
Yep, let's not upset your nice white neighbors by calling it racially motivated
He was jealous because they were so financially well off
You notice how he showed the man thought the black girl was there visiting the white girls when it was actually the black girls home. Priceless!!!!
Exactly! The apology is to late and that is Amerikkka.
He reminds me of my Father and my Uncles. They sound and look the same.
This man handled this situation perfectly. Well done.
He is wise and careful what he says “Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks”
I'm sickened! He is a sick dangerous man.
I credit this gentleman and applaud him for having 10 times more self control and situational insight than I could ever muster if I lived to be 100 and had studied under the worlds philosophical greats. The guy who was bothering; well, let’s be honest, assaulting these children is what’s wrong with the world. This gentleman is what’s right with it. Patience, courage and pride. Aw crap, now I want him for president.
Very sharp, I knew he was corporate by the way he speaks, he probably teaches in that environment, notice he said talking to the village committee, I wouldn't mess with that guy, he'll end up owning your house.
Great Scott
Yes!!!
This is grandpa??? Well, hellooooooo grandma:-)
People apologized too much and they continue to do it again over and over again!
Man this guy, sounds so classy, and well mannered.....he must run for office... or be in a movie! The way he speaks and thinks. Love it.
Wtf?!
@Sakeena Scott exactly, this man sounds like my Dad and Grandfather.
TechReviewz - He may come across as classy and all that, but he is way too loquacious and indirect. Call a damned spade a spade. Listening to him was exhausting after awhile.
Wellington is a classy guy! He's not afraid. He's just trying to unpacked his situation and his experiences. If he knows one thing!!! He knows he is a black man. This man is trying to speak as eloquently about this situation. As black people we try to avoid this crap over & over again!!! I thank God for his response.
Racism never go away. Racism isn't the black man's family its the racist neighbor problem.
Best comment
Okay well first of all, Wellington is the community… NOT his name.
Wow.
Gramps was ready to lay hands on ole boy...
Powerful how he never used the word racist👻.But, its what is written in everybody's mind at this point 😄😄😅🤔🤔🤔
The mad man had a problem with us 'looking different
If he had just said "it was because she is Black", this type of dialog would not happen. We NEED these type of Socratic thought processes. He's making people THINK about what is going on instead of giving racially charged sound bites that just incites rage and anger.
Are you serious? Calling a spade a spade doesn't make US racist, contrary to the gaslighters who claim it, and it certainly isn't the cause for the racism. That is something within those people that needs to be addressed/called out by one of their own. It's not enough to not be racist! You have to actively call it out when you see it!
This man has the composure and patience of a saint!!!
Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. What’s in your heart will manifest in your actions. He automatically assumed the black girl didn’t belong in the neighborhood. 2020 and people still act like we living in 1950 and 1960 segregated. Well I am pretty sure he doesn’t have Jesus in his heart and works for the devil 👿 so one day he will meet his maker👿
DISGUSTING WHERE'S THE HOA???????
Sounds like Grandpa handled the situation with both firmness and CLASS.
Very eloquent and well spoken, a real gentleman.

I’m so sorry this family experienced this. No one should have to, especially young kids. :(
You are so wrapped up you can't even see what's going on in your community, smh. Trust me they understand what's going on they just don't want to accept it.
You need to be commended for the way you dealt with this incident. You can teach many people in power what emotional intelligence is and how to lead .
Outrageous and so exhausting! Racism is a mental health problem and we need more mental health practitioners.
Racism in not a mental health problem u FOOL ITS A CHOICE!!!
@@michaelpinkney3238 Plz do us all a favour and crawl back under the rock from whence u came, learn some manners and respect whilst there before u resurface. These comments are for adults.
Much too loquacious. Succinctly say what hell you mean, and mean it.
That guy was lucky he didn’t run into my grandfather when he was alive. My grandfather was a hell raiser and wasn’t to be pushed.
what a well spoken, well groomed, educated man, and grandfather. I know its hard, but he is trying so hard not to call racism by its name -- you can see and hear his emotions -- and because he is a faithful christian, he is trying his best to word things carefully ---
