I remember once I was in a bad mood and yelling at my very young daughter for something I can't remember clearly now. But I do remember an elderly man smiling at me kindly. Maybe he said something too- it was like 24 years ago. But the thing I remember is the kindness in his smile immediately de-escalated my mood and I could see I was behaving badly.
Wow, so you yelling at your daughter because of your bad mood is justified? I don't understand adults who do this to children and blame it on their "bad mood". Terrible
See this type of stuff is ridiculous and people like this will not be happy until they do it to the wrong person and end up on the wrong side of a gun barrel or severe beat down. Idiocy at its best. 🤦♂️
I'm no expert at handling these kinds of situations, but I think you handled this pretty nice calmly. This really is a big problem that needs to be addressed more to the public. It's really frustrating that these things still happen. We need to know that laws won't change or solve anything like this. Everyone, every individual needs to change their perception.
"Go to another town"... wow, she is really concern about those kids 🤔🤔🤔 "Why are you here?" Maybe b/c he is an AMERICAN... And has the freedom to go wherever the heck he wants!
This makes me so angry. I share your anger and I'm so sorry you had to go through this. So glad you stood your ground because they really screamed racist and white superiority at the end. And how dare they demand you to go somewhere else like it's their land. Best wishes.
If this Dad is a black guy dare they say anything when he was educating his own kids with safety concern? Do they dare say 'this is not Africa'? They deserve loss of their jobs and social connections. Shame on these racial cowards.
Racism under the guise of concern for the welfare of your children. IF they truly cared about your children they would've stopped harassing you the moment your child expressed stress about the escalating situation and repeatedly told them to stop. Wonder if they sleep well at night now deluded that they're social warriors of some kind.
You've never worked with or been around abuse have you? Why do abused women stay with their partners? An abused child will still side with their abusive parent because they know if they don't they'll be punished, and it's their parent, they feel they have too. I've stopped a man punching his wife in the face in public only to have her turn around and attack me. This video is a snippet of what happened, no one but the video owner and the couple know what really happened and to believe either one without knowing all the facts is pointless. We've all seen doctored videos that show one thing, but when the full video or other videos are released it shows the opposite.
@@bilum Bold of you to assume that. I have - unfortunately for the sake of your argument, been around abuse. I've been a victim of it and exposed to it from childhood. So I am very well versed in what abuse can look or sound like, thank you very much. Say for arguments' sake, the child was being abused, the couple escalating the situation rather than involving CPS/police would've be pointless and could've resulted in a more dangerous situation for the child when they got home. There is no one-mould-fits-all when it comes to parenting and you may not agree with scolding your children but that doesn't make it abuse. You say that we can't assume from a video the whole situation but you are quick to assume that the child is being abused. Pot calling kettle black. It's quite obvious from the body language and the tone of the couple that this situation wasn't out of concern for the child. If they were worried the child was being abused by their dad they would not be smirking and acting all entitled, telling him to "go to another town" to abuse them there. Clear case of racism. "Why are you here"; that is not something a person who is involved in a case concerning child abuse would say. It's impertinent to the situation and doesn't help in any way. Yes, you can never assume from a small snapshot the entirety of the situation but you can make educated inferences for yourself, you do have a brain after all.
@@Dlwr47 I never stated that this child was abused, I was referring to abuse in general and stating that because something looks one way on a video, doesn't mean that is the way it really was. So there is not pot calling the kettle black ;) You're also assuming a lot about "body language" of this couple, if you approached someone because you believed they where mistreating their child and they whipped their phone out acting like that, I'd imagine a lot of us would stand their in bewilderment as to what the hell was happening. Which is what I see when I look at them. Also asking, "why are you here" or "go to another town" DOES NOT mean racism, it could be that they purely don't want that drama or what they perceive as abuse around where they live or are staying. If I've some teenagers hanging around making noise outside and I hang out of the window and say "what are you doing? bugger off somewhere else!" it's not racist, it's a case of telling them to fuck off and take their BS with them. You talk about making assumptions but you're talking out of your arse, you've been told it was racist and you're making it fit instead of keeping an open mind. Also, from the video, the behavior of the father and his over-the-top reaction for his youtube views, which is the only reason this was posted in the first place, is the main cause of any potential distress to the child. He could have just walked away with the child but instead created drama and potential damage to the child mentally. You don't keep your child in that situation if he really was feeling threatened, he'd have retreated to safety.
@@sporock1 Dude...buddy...why would you say that? You putting her name (Kate S) in the description already puts you in a bad light. And now you're saying "Karma is a b*tch" expecting the internet to dox her for you. You asked them to stop harassing you, then you proceed to call her a Karen.

I'm Japanese but I never got bullied in these neighborhoods. I remember long time when I was trying vegetarian option at Tum Tum Thai restaurant at Rockville Centre long time ago, I tried to pay for my lunch but someone kind already paid for me. I also remember one time I was doing Car Free Long Island Vegan challenge and after dinner, I was walking from 3 Brothers Vegan Pizza Cafe to Copiague Station, and when I stop by at gas station to ask question where train station was, man was very rude and I had to ask dangerously to stranger who was driving car/trucks at red light that had window open and they told me direction.
While I don’t believe this was racially motivated, I do think she believes she is entitled! I can’t stand people that think they know better than everyone else and are somehow in charge of everything. I’m glad you called her out my name. I would have reacted the same way with my Children if they were missed behaving and almost got run over. I can understand how upset and frantic you must have felt at that moment. Scolding your children is not abuse and it’s also none of her business. And why he ask about your job just pissed me off even more. He’s just as bad as she is
@ColorsStones so you were there? When can CPS contact you for an interview? Perhaps you have a video showing your version of event for corroboration? I mean this dude showed his receipt, where’s yours?

@@Mikeyvn Yahoo news did a story on this. The woman is alleging this man was abusing his children and she had to intervene.

I am a Korean father of a 4-year-old son. I can kind of see how things escalated here. The yelling, the tone of voice, that's kind of how I grew up. I learned that this type of "reaction" attracts unwanted attention in the public in the US. I cannot comment on the mindset of the white couple here, but they just seemed to say things at the top of their heads without real intent of menace??? I don't know what is the best way to avoid a situation like this. Always talk like Humphrey Bogart when in public and also at home? Hey man, we will have a bottle of soju over this and laugh about how we learn from life!
The white dude told the Korean-American man, "this isn't China". And the racist Karen told him to go abuse your kids elsewhere. But go off about how there was no malicious intent.
Do these people not understand why Koreans kick our ass in everything? Hint: It's not due to low parental expectations. And someone should call the police on her for wearing those hideous pants in public.
The dude holding the camera was the one doing the harassing . This is what these dip shits do . They cause a problem then when someone tells them something , they pull out a camera and claim they are being harassed . We've seen it over and over. But notice they never show what actually happened .
That man is not Ford Lininger. I was with him that day and not on that island. I’m so very sorry this happened to you and your family but it seems Ford is being accused for something he absolutely in his heart and soul is incapable of. I hope you and Ethan are ok and I hope the real identity of the tall man on the bike comes out.
Why should he have to be complacent with their ignorance and discrimination of other cultures? It's not him who needs to tolerate their racism, it is they who need to educate and better themselves.
@@Dlwr47 if this is really a children abuse situation you really wish people just pass by, ignore and leave it goes on? There won't be any more good Samaritan because we kill them.
@@Dlwr47 I am Asian from Asian country. Not until I moved to the USA that I know education can be without scolding or spanking and still getting the same result. It is culture shock, at the same time, I don't like the fact that some lazy parents here just don't discipline their kids at all and end up causing problems for others. In Asia, I got used to see neighbors spanking their kids in front of the house and wished someone can do something to stop it because it is going to cause mental issue in the kid at a later age. But everyone passing by chose to ignore, because in Asian culture, it is the family's own business how they want to discipline their children. Some of these parents are losing themselves when they got angry. It will be good to have a person check to make sure it is not too much. I don't know what exactly the couples saw when they decided to interrupt.
I question this "victim" being harrassed. Where is the video of him scolding his children? I dont see any harrassment here. Move along people.....move along.
