We Live In This Development! Why Are You Gonna Call The Law On Us?

White man calls the law on a Black teen.
Don't you get tired of these white men and women threatening to call the law on you for minding your own business?

I know I and many people of color will experience a "Karen" or "Kevin" throwing out their privilege and threatening police action on you for doing nothing more than being Black in America.

The rules only apply when White people get their way. I guess that's how life works right?

There's so many incidents of white people either coughing on people of color, threatening police interaction for doing a minor infraction or threatening gun violence for being in a white neighborhood.

So down in South Florida, a white man is probably wishing he didn't act foolish that evening.

This white guy named Lee Jeffers becomes the latest pariah in the country because of his ridiculous antics towards people of color. The young girls were in a golf cart driving around the development and the white guy saw them and was fumed about them treating the golf cart like a toy. So he decided to confront them.

The exchange between Jeffers and a group of teenage girls took place in Wellington, Florida.

However, the video only starts after Jeffers has pulled over and gotten out of his car.

"You don't belong......" will be forever etched.

This incident happened on Sunday.




Tony Nelson, 62 said his granddaughter was targeted by this white guy for no fucking reason. He told her to share this video on social media.

"It's not going away," said Nelson. "I can't let it die....People aren't understanding what's going on."

His granddaughter, Breonna Nelson-Hicks said that the man followed them around the development and towards her friend's home. He was yelling at them, so she told her grandfather.

The teens crossed Lake Worth Road from one development, The Isles, to Grand Isle another development where the Nelsons lived. They stopped at the security guard gate and drove to Breonna's home.

That's when the teens said that this white guy started tailgating them. The boy who was driving the cart tried to pull aside to let the guy pass but he decided to stay on their tail.

Soon after they parked the golf cart, the boys ran and the young girls decided to walk the rest of the way. They didn't expect the car to follow them. And as they got near the home, the white guy gets out and confronts them.

So they whipped out the cellphone and then it recorded the encounter.

The video last under two minutes.

Nelson later would say that the incident "was not about the golf cart."

"I don't car if you take my picture ... because you don't belong in this development," the man yells at the young girls.

Breonna is Black and her two other friends are white. Her white friend recorded the encounter.

According to the video posted on social media and shared by Nelson with The Palm Beach Post, a tense verbal exchange then followed.

"What's your name?" the man yelled at Breonna.

"I'm not telling you," the girls replied.

"I live here," Breonna said.

"OK, where do you live?" he asked.

"Why would I tell you any of this?" one of the girls said.

"OK, I'm going to call the gate and have you all arrested," the man said. "You do not deserve to be in here."

"OK," one of the girls said. "What did we even do wrong?"

The man turned to the woman who lives across the street from the Nelsons. Hearing the commotion, she had come outside and stood at the foot of her driveway.

"Seriously?" the man said to her. "I have to wait five minutes while they're strutting around in the road."

That's when Breonna went and got her grandfather. As she walked to her front door, the man appeared to begin to follow her.

"Yeah, bring him out right now, bring him out right now," the man said.

The neighbor is heard speaking to the teens "Just don't argue, guys," she said. "It's not worth it."

The teens thanked her and were met with more yells from this man.

"It is because you're driving illegally," the man said.

"OK, but you're coming at 15-year olds," the girl holding the cellphone said.

"So you're going to hit us with a car?" the other teen said.

"Because you're 15 years old?" the man said. "You can marry in Mississippi or Alabama."

That's where we went into sexual predator territory. How the fuck does he know about age of consent? Does he have some kind of fetish for underage children? That remark was totally inappropriate for him to say.

The girls scoffed at that notion. Breonna's grandfather came out the house and confronted this guy.

"Don't stick your hand out," Nelson said. "Did you threaten a child?"

"I did not threaten, I did not threaten a child," the man said, lowering his hands and beginning to back away.

"I have it on video," the girl recording said.

Nelson told the girls to go inside, then asked to see the video.

The Palm Beach Sheriff's Office had received a complaint from the guy.

"I am told unless this is a low-speed vehicle with a tag on it, the golf cart is not supposed to be driven on the road," the spokeswoman for PBSO said. "As the video shows, the male confronted the juveniles and some of what he said would be in-line with the fact that the golf cart should not be on the road. We received two calls when the deputies arrived, the male had already gone home. Deputies did speak to the juveniles and made contact with the male the next day. Based on both accounts no crime was committed."

The encounter didn't end up with anyone being arrested. However, the folks on social media quickly identified this asshole.

He works for the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and he's being placed on administrative leave pending a potential cannon firing.

USCIS said the man's actions were disturbing.

"USCIS holds its employees to the highest standards of integrity and professionalism regardless if they are on or off duty. We are looking into the matter that has been reported in the press about this individual's off duty behavior. The video is certainly disturbing, and we are working to get all available information in considering what action, if any, may be appropriate for the agency to take."
