She was just sitting here using the Wi-Fi. And so she was like, "Who are you? The white gatekeeper?" Ma'am, ma'am, this is not even a confrontational thing right now. I'm just letting you know the rules. It's 30 minutes. Well, I travel the world and blah blah blah. Okay, well, congratulations that you travel the world. I I don't need to know all that. I just need you to know that there's a 30-minut time frame and that's it. That's all I'm coming here to do. And then that's when she's got all she started calling me names. Ma'am, I don't have time for that. Oh, you hate your mother. Oh, you you need to go get some and all this. I'm like, >> what names was she calling you? She called me a a black and then she called me a black gay dude. Then she said she just kept saying, you know, hateful things, you know. Oh, you you you here to um to control the white people and ma'am. She's like, "Oh, you need to be in jail somewhere where all the black people is. You know where they want you." I'm like, "Ma'am, I don't care about all that. I have a degree. I I just applied for law school. I'm just waiting for them to say, "Oh, congrats." >> Yeah. I'm just waiting for my acceptance letter. That's it. So, um all that unnecessary stuff, man. I can't, you know, I can't engage in that. you know, there's ethical things that I have to, you know, maintain. I can't, you know, I can't do that. So, it's like the things that you're saying is very hateful, and I really want to react, but in the back of my head, I'm thinking like, you're just applying for law school. So, you know, there are certain standards that you have to go about things. So, um, then I just called 911, just said, can you guys just come and remove the lady? And by the time you got here, she was already back here trying to record me. And I'm like, ma'am, stop recording me. You don't have permission to record me. Stop recording me. Oh, I'm recording.
