WATCH! DID THE WHITE POODLE DOG SHOW MORE CLASS AND “CHRISTIANITY” THAN HER WHITE OWNER AND THE BLACK PASTOR WHO WERE FIGHTING IN A DOG PARK IN MANSFIELD, TEXAS? YOU BE THE JUDGE.
DANIEL WHYTE III, PRESIDENT OF GOSPEL LIGHT SOCIETY INTERNATIONAL, SAYS YES, THERE IS A HEIGHTENED RACIAL TENSION IN THE COUNTRY EXPOSED BY THE ELECTION, WITH EVEN BLACK PASTORS AND WHITE PASTORS PUBLICLY FIGHTING EACH OTHER ON YOUTUBE WHEN THEY SHOULD NOT BE IN POLITICS IN THE FIRST PLACE, SPARKING A CIVIL WAR IN THE CHURCH OF ALL PLACES THAT CAN EASILY BLEED OVER INTO THE NATION. WHYTE IS CONVINCED THAT SOMETIMES LITTLE CHILDREN AND DOGS ACT LIKE THEY HAVE MORE SENSE THAN GROWN PEOPLE IN LEADERSHIP. WHYTE’S FAMILY HAS LOVED AND ENJOYED A WHITE COCKER SPANIEL NAMED “SALVATION” THAT THE FAMILY CALLED “SAL” FOR SHORT, AND WHYTE HAS SAID MANY TIMES THAT SAL WAS “THE BEST MEMBER IN THE FAMILY AND ACTED MORE LIKE A ‘CHRISTIAN’ THAN HIS WIFE MERIQUA WHYTE.” WHYTE SAYS IF HE IS LYING HE IS FLYING. WITH THAT SAID, BOTH PARTIES COULD HAVE HANDLED THIS MATTER IN A MORE CLASS-ACT FASHION. BUT AS A SIDE MATTER, WHYTE TELLS EVERYONE THERE ARE 4 PEOPLE YOU DO NOT WANT TO GET INTO IT WITH AT A DOG PARK OR ANY PLACE ELSE:
A 67-year-old Black Texas pastor posted a video of his confrontation with a white woman at a dog park where she alleges he was scaring her dog.
Not so much, actually, as the woman’s standard poodle twice jumps into TikTok user @j4him.org’s lap.
To be fair, what or who instigated their confrontation at a Mansfield, Texas, park isn’t clear, and the pastor doesn’t give the woman much of a chance to tell her side. She denies telling him to shut up, as Apostle Mitchell Calvin Brown, the name attached to the TikTok account, claims when he starts the video.
@j4him.org This is what happened in mansfield when i’m sitting in the park
“I’m in the park, and this lady is telling me I’m not supposed to be here,” Brown says. “She’s telling me to shut up, a 67-year-old senior citizen.”
The woman, standing just a few feet away, corrects him.
“This isn’t the park. This is the Watercrest Dog Park,” she said, though it’s not clear why she makes the distinction.
The pastor goes on to claim the woman was “threatening me with her words, telling me to shut up, shut up.”
Then, the poodle jumps into his lap, causing the dog’s owner to claim the friendly pooch was actually scared of him.
“This man’s crazy,” she says to the dog, which sets off Brown.
“Now she’s saying I’m crazy,” he said. “She don’t know I’m a pastor.”
The woman responds sarcastically, “If you’re a pastor …”
Brown cuts her off again, and the woman begins to walk away.
“But because I’m Black and I’m in the park with my dog she’s telling me to shut up,” he says. “I want everyone to see her,”
He summarizes their interaction, claiming, “The first thing she says is, ‘Do you live here?’ “
The woman, now visibly angry, turns around and shouts, “That is not what happened!”
Brown talks over her as he wraps up the video.
“What she said is I’m better than you,” he said. “She even told me to shut up.”
The woman continues to protest, but her words can’t be heard.
“That’s all right, this is gonna go viral,” Brown says.
And so it has, with nearly 8,000 likes and more than 1,500 comments by Friday afternoon.
Commenters largely sided with the pastor, with many noting that the woman’s poodle told the true story.
“Poodle: sir, can I come home with you,” wrote one viewer.”Do dogs get in the lap of people that they are afraid of?” noted another.
