    Narcissism:
    There are two types of narcissism: With grandiose narcissism we see characteristics like being extroverted, socially bold, self-confident, having a superficial charm, being resistant to criticism, and being callous and unemotional. Vulnerable narcissism is characterized by shame, anger, aggression, hypersensitivity, a tendency to be introverted, defensive, avoidant, anxious, depressed, socially awkward, and shy.
    Factor 1 Psychopathy (primary) - callous/unemotional, manipulative, pathological liar, fearless dominance, lacking in remorse
    Factor 2 Psychopathy (secondary) - impulsive, irresponsible, neurotic, emotionally reactive, criminal, sensation-seeking

      What happened before recording is not certain. He may have threatened her. Mr Cooper posted what happened on his Facebook page. There is no way to confirm if it's true. What he did post still seems somewhat threatening because approached her and her dog to give the dog some treats that he just happened to have (?).
      What is clear is MSM hasn't done research about the more complete context. Some of the blame seems to fall on Mr Cooper and that has been left out of the public story.

    True story, scouts honor ✌🏽. She was my neighbor in NYC for 3 years and her old dog “Oliver” bit me on the arm in 2014. I didn’t make a big deal about it, he was a small old dog and shit happens, she was initially apologetic but turned rageful when I wanted to know her name and apt number in case I needed to forward a doctors bill. That was followed by 3 years of clashing with this woman every time we saw each other. Once her dog came after me and my two dogs in the hallway, I yelled at her dog to stop, she said “how dare you shout at my dog you fucking (inaudible).” I may have called her a “C-U-Next-Tuesday “
    I’m not very confrontational, and she was the only person I ever had to defend myself against in NYC (and I worked in a sketchy neighborhood).
    I believe she is a racist and an elitist. She hated having a Hispanic neighbor in “her” luxury apartment building. Believe me, this was a long time coming. As far as the assessment that she has impulse control, I can personally attest to that. I was and am still very good friends with many of the staff of that building, she was always the building joke and was known for her Karen behavior. Just a few stories I remember.
    -She invites a guy upto her apartment (she was notoriously single and in desperate need of a mans, ahem, affection), only to chase after him out the door about 5 minutes later. Apparently he wasn’t into it. Her sexual frustration was obvious when she came back and yelled at the doorman for laughing. -Winter 2015. My building was on the Hudson and the neighborhood was very windy during winter. The doorman was helping a woman with a stroller through the door when she struggled with the other door, which she took offense to. She made a scene in the lobby on how she expected to have the door opened for her because that’s what she pays for. There is a spinning rotary door as well, she’s just a privileged bitch. -Ah, and my favorite. My wife was talking to the concierge with our two dogs by her side. Old crusty cooch rolls up and tells her that dog walkers have to use the side entrance and the front entrance is for residents only (Not True). My wife is Latina, and she’s mean y’all. She lit into her and called her a racist bitch. She told the building management a bunch of lies, that my wife spit at her and she wanted us removed. Of course none of the video and witnesses backed her up. We moved to a different tower within the same building and didn’t see her as much after that, but still heard stories about her clashing with staff members and residents. I was never a real believer in Karma, but this one makes me a believer. She is a bully. She has a mean and ugly heart. She tried to make me feel inferior. But I’m a combat veteran and I earned my right for a seat at the table. She deserves every bit of what she’s going through.

    Karen behavior--and this in particular-- reminds me of the character in To Kill a Mockingbird, Mayella Ewell, who hysterically accuses a Black man of rape. We come to find out that Mayella has been raped by her own father, a man she cannot accuse, and therefore she rages against the Black man who will surely be punished--because he is Black. This connection by illustration could provide basis for understanding some of the Karen-type hysteria fueling racism today. People who act on racist impulses are irrational, and it would help to end the normalization of racism.

Why not just call the police on her dog being off leash instead of tormenting her dog with treats? They deserved each other. Lol

You don't hear about it when white people are killed by the police because that doesn't suit the woke agenda. Also, it is completely ignored how the black people who *do* get killed or beaten are acting at the time. It isn't "how cops react to black people." It's "how certain black people react to cops."

The 'TELL THEM' implies that she KNOWS he's not doing that, but THAT'S what she's going to 'TELL THEM'.) She didn't ask the guy WHY are you doing this, she went STRAIGHT to threatening him with the police. He was in no way a threat to her. She then lied while making a false report, acting distressed and hysterical to panic the responding officers. HAD the police arrived promptly there is a significant possibility Christian Cooper might have been shot. (Officers are trained to contain the threat FIRST and assess the situation LATER.) Amy Cooper should be CHARGED and JAILED for making a false report to police, reckless endangerment, animal cruelty AND running a dog in The Ramble off-leash. But she WON'T BE because she's a rich White lady. (IMAGINE if she was a screaming, hysterical BLACK lady making false accusations against a WHITE Harvard Grad Professional to Police officers?)

He then proceeded to get something out of his pocket and tried to call the dog over. If I was the recipient of those words/actions, Id take that as a serious threat.

    Thanks for bringing up her shift in tone of voice, I find it strange that most people are not commenting about how not only was she making threats, but as she was not only making these threats, but she was "acting" and changing her voice to make it sound like she was in distres and in increasing danger, and I think that speaks to her level of intent as well. She didn't just stand there and say in a bitchy tone that she was being threatened, she acted out a heightened levela of fear and made it sound like she was dealing with an increasingly aggressive *imminent threat.*

    I don't like it when people have their dogs unleashed either, so at first I liked Christian Cooper's trick of offering the dog a treat. (The owner will immediately leash their dog because they are afraid the treat is poisoned.) Christian Cooper says, "Okay, if you're going to do what you want, then I'm going to do what I want, and you're not going to like it." That is a (vague) threat. He did not directly threaten her life or threaten to assault her, but he did threaten her.

      And all the racist apologists in this comment section is worrying to me.
      I mean, I’m no babe I’m the woods, lol. I know it exists. I’m in the unique situation of having a sister who is 13 months older than me (same olds story/joke to my mother as well as all women having problems conceiving: “adopt a baby. You’ll immediately get pregnant.!” ). They did, and a few months later my mom did. This was in 1966, and my sister is not Caucasian. So the story goes it causes quite an uproar in our middleclass white neighborhood. She was 2 days old when brought home. Between my progressive father who took on anything because it was “the right thing to do, and my mother who was just so delighted to have a baby, ANY baby.
      A year later I was born and being so close in age we did everything together. We both grew up being told she was adopted, but my 3 year old self didn’t know the meaning of the word. I assumed “adopted” meant she had brown skin because everyone else in the family (I had 2 more younger siblings by now) were white.
      My mom tells the story now that I would cry “I wanna be adopted too!” 😩😩. I was so jealous of her brown skin and thick kinky hair vs my pasty white skin and thin hair.
      As we grew she was the typical “first born” high achiever, well behaved (I was a wild child) and having that experience I guess was very instrumental in how I view race relations today.
      She was my sister, I didn’t see her as any different. But I saw how OTHERS saw her as “different.”
      My childhood dynamic was a gift that lets me see people of color as regular humans that others raised in white suburbia never got to have.
      I remember in 5th grade a classmate of mine (who didn’t know my sister was black and Filipina) said “oh black people spend all their money on cars so they have to live in ghettos.
      I said “WHAT?”
      She said “yeah , my dad told me that.”
      5th grade and I still remember that conversation.

    True Story. Last year I moved into a flat next door to a woman named Karen. I introduced myself and she told me she had just adopted two kittens (I like animals). Next time we spoke I said I had seen one of the kittens in her window and it was cute. Suddenly she asks "are you trying to poison my cats?" As you can imagine, I was very taken aback and said "of course not." She continued "someone is posting poisoned cat food through my door" and "I know my cats bother you" (I only saw one of them once and they are never let out and certainly make no noise). Instantly I replied "no they don't!" (bother me). As you can imagine, I now avoid this woman like a taste session at a Chinese wet market situated next to a biolab. Do you think that she is suffering from catatonia? ;-)

    The way she redirected her emotion from her dog struggling because she was choking it into her voice to add authenticity to her feigned distress to get the police to arrive in an agitated state went a long way towards showing what kind of person she is. She would have used anything she could no matter who got hurt to get back at that man for daring to make her follow the rules.

      Ashlyn art it depends on what you mean by black people. My bf is moroccan, and just to help define his skin complexion, I would say he has like a "medium to light african-american" skin complexion. So he's not what people would generally refer as a black man, and sadly, he's faced many issues with Karens and male karens, at work and outside of work of course... he's a freakin engineer, we would think that educated people would know better right? Nope! He's lost jobs because of some racists and insecure white men (less issues with women since he's quite handsome..🤷🏻‍♀️), In stores or on the streets, he see's a difference in the way he's treated when he's with me vs by himself.. plus, he's Muslim, so that makes it even worst! We live in Canada, I'm from Canadian decent, so I got the privileges at birth.. I didn't ask for those, but I'm well aware they're there, even though I would much prefer such thing didn't exist, and I do make sure that anyone around me or that I come across in public never gets badly treated because of their ethnicity, I make sure to call out people's Bs, in their face when they have racist biases, racists judgments or discriminatory thoughts. I also encourage my bf and any of my friends to use my privileges whenever it can help them somehow, cause reality is, they're there, they might as well use them if it's helpful in some way.
      But all this to say, the issues with these Karens isn't only with african-american black people. And based on the fact that Karens feel powerful compared to some people because they hold the belief that these other people are less intelligent than her, I would think that anyone who isn't a white female at that point is exposed to be Karenned..

    He was minding her business in the first place. It was her dog and not his. She called the police because a creepy guy, also called as a complete stranger, out of nowhere started filming and wanted her to do exactly what he says. She called the police as a precaution before anything bad happened, she knew she couldn't be able to when things turn worse. No, she wasn't dramatic, they were the only people there. People say things when provoked repeatedly and that is the only area where she was wronged by a freaking law which allows people to film and control what another person do or don't do but deny people to make remarks even when humiliated. She is a woman and women feel unsafe even in public areas. Why wouldn't she see insecure when a stranger start to mess with her in a secluded area for a lame reason!
