Woman Who Called Police On Black Girl Selling Water To Go To Disneyland Comes Under Fire | TODAY
“Illegally selling water without a permit” Bruh she’s 8
Bruh I don’t even know how to get a permit to sell stuff and I’m 14
@@TARNATIONPLANTATION it’s not if she wanted to do it
That don't matter
@@queeniebeanie3196 I'm 34 IDK how to get a permit either.
AND SHE JUST WANT TO GO TO THE PARK OF HER DREAMS,,, wHy
She's crying about messages but was ready to send a child to jail????
Exactly
KZheadOverTV lol no one would have went to jail but yeah she was dumb to even call the police about this.
Or possibly even traumatizing the child by calling the cops on her period!
The lady wanted the kid to go away, not go to jail. Still racist or just hates children lmao. But she was trying to get her sent to jail
Children don't go to jail, especially over a permit. At most it would be a ticket to the parent. And it's called harassment.
“The whole world gon see u boo” that aged pretty well
Yes!!! 🎉
What happened?
On top of how despicable she is for calling the police on an 8 YEAR OLD selling water to help pay for a Disney trip, “Permit Patty” took away time and efforts from emergency services that could have gone to others in real emergencies like a car accident, fire, or domestic violence. I’m happy that little girl got to go to Disney. ❤
AmethystEyes 🎯💯🏆👍
I don't even think she called the police. She was just bluffing.
So true,cops have more pressing matters! Sadly she's not the only racist who has pulled a stunt like this before ! Thrilled little girl gets to enjoy Disneyland ! 💕

“Selling water illegally without a permit” Dumbest sentence I’ve ever heard
😂😂😂
Do you really need a permit to sell water in us and a?
@@trapperboy7345 it is a well known fact that in America, it is easier to buy a gun than get something that covers 75% of the planet (jokes)
Well you do need a permit to sell any goods even a yard sale you do need a permit and most police just ignore it unless someone calls so I don’t exactly see why the sentence dumb
Even in the midst of mess, God can still bless.
She's just mad because the little girl makes more money than her.
So you are saying I can call the cops on my competitors? 🤔

She breaks the spirit of a child. That is a terrible thing to do to a child.

@@ThaFuzzwoodYou sound heartless. Obviously you are racist. Shame on you!!!
it wasn’t an apology, she just doubled down.
Why is this woman crying she brought this on herself
That's a white woman's classic defense mechanism lol
Just a way of trying to look like a victim LMFAO
White women always wanna pull the crocodile tears after they get caught for doing something that they shouldn’t of been doing 🙄🙄
Just remember what get's posted on social media stays on social media, there's no getting rid of it when you have literally thousands sharing it everyday lmfaoo
Lol crazy old ladies 😂😂😂

Also everyone: 🖕
I made these exact faces on that part 😂
Her: acts like a victim Everyone: 😑🥱🥱 Her: cries Everyone: 😴😴🥳🥳😂😂
Could you imagine calling the police on a 8 year old selling water? Or one of those lemonade stands or Girl Scout cookies? Ridiculous! I’m glad everyone who saw this agreed to how ridiculous this woman was. And that people came together to help pay for that sweet girl’s trip to Disney.
The kid absolutely was yelling and was asked not to yell.
@@carollynt so you call the police on them?!
@@carollyntgo be miserable Karen ❤❤❤❤ Have all the days you deserve 😊
@@carollyntI hope when you call the police when you need them that they are too busy on the phone with a miserable lonely woman calling the cops on girlscouts selling cookies without a permit 😂
Criminalizing Childhood.
It is often very calculating when someone comes up with an apology only after they've publicly made a fool of themselves and embarrassed them; true repentance comes from within the heart and you don't need to be told by the world that you made a mistake, it's a matter of realizing it... So you can't blame the family for not accepting the apology....
Totally agree. When I say or do something wrong I FEEL it! Maybe not in the moment if I reacted in anger or fear. This was not an action done because of fear of bodily harm or her feelings being hurt. So I agree that apology is probably not an empathetic one.
Part of repentance is asking for forgiveness. If you don't forgive God won't forgive you too. Just like the story of the master and two servants
“It was a hot day” yeah why tf do you think she’s selling cold water to people
Adam Shaheedh exactly that’s what I’m saying
Adam Shaheedh well she wasn’t hurting anyone or anything. so she was yelling, she’s a little girl her voice couldn’t have been THAT loud to disturb her like just close your window she said everyone had their window open. ugh same I could just rant lol
Adam Shaheedh no but I’m not surprised
And why would you open the windows if it was hot out lmaooooo
@@adamshaheedh Thats what im saying most 99 percent of office buildings have AC why would she have the window open letting hot air in hahah
“Illegally selling bottled water” that is the single most stupid thing I have ever heard
I know like wtf
And the SNL skit is hilarious
IAM MIGHTY1211 I refuse to believe this! God Emperor Carl Wheezer was the creator of water.. or was he?
Exactly
We didn't hear if the police came and what they told the caller. They should fine her for wasting their time.
These karens are only sorry that they’ve been called out.
Flowers illegally drinking your water should not be tolerated.
"The whole world is gonna see you boo" She wasn't lying.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Timmy 😏😏😏😏
I never thought getting called boo by a black woman could be bad
She really wasn’t 😂😂😂😂😂😂
kzhead.info/sun/p7aYZsihmaJ6mac/bejne.html Check this out pls
She was angry because the little girl was making more money than her.
AND THATS ON PERIODT

No she is just racist
@@zack-xb9po it could be that
Oversized OOOOOFFFFFF
There are those who actually get a rush from inflicting psychological pain on others in order to feel validated. They are called sadistic.
Only a miserable person can hurt little girl, who are already a survivor.... ❤ Soo happy for not giving up and not accepting apology
"I'm getting hate mail" You should have minded your business, now the whole world is in yours.
Shut up you. Can't a person make a mistake and repent. You piece of trash
@@cartooncartel6493 why don't you? 🤣 It's not repenting when you are only apologizing because the world saw your true colors and didn't like them
We have the right to live in a quiet neighborhood.
@@sha9543 In San Francisco? LMAO. If you don’t like it, move to North Dakota. Tf you expect?
She surely should have minded her business, at the same time no one deserves that kind of public humiliation. No one should live under constant death threats and public shaming. That's just horrible and inhumane. Everyone makes mistakes
I just realized now. I’m a criminal. All those years of lemonade stands without a permit... god have mercy on my soul...
Thank God you didn’t have a permit patty on your block
Its not even called a Sellers permit. Its called Wholesale License or Reseller License. I had one when I was in middle school and high school. I honestly dont know why the girl doesnt have one any ways cause you can buy in bulk and actually make a profit margin. And its not even that hard to obtain. Its probably like a 30 dollar service fee. I honestly feel if the mom wants to teach her child business, she might as well go the whole 9 yards. Im guessing she must of went to sams club or costco's. Should of just showed them that memberships lol.
@@anthonygordon9483 thanks for the knowledge. They don’t teach kids that in middle school so I wouldn’t consider it common knowledge amongst that age group
and goodness knows if I'd be hear cause I used to sell nice copied pictures for 25 cents
It not considered crime since selling water and lemonade for loose change charge and it the value of teaching saying if you want something badly enough then work and show that it something that you truly
NOT THE CROCODILE TEARS 😭🤣
This what happens when you don’t stay on your lane. Stop trying to tell people how to live and attacking people for just doing their best. Life doesn’t revolve around you, now you get this stigma because it’s what your actions earned you and sadly people on the internet aren’t that forgiving
Why tf is she crying and playing a victim. You messed up now deal with it
Because she’s received thousands of hateful messages, including death threats, and her face and name was all over the media as a racist. That’s why. She has good reason to cry and “play” a victim.

This evil, barbaric excuse of a woman obviously isn’t a mother herself (and thank God for that too), because she never would’ve harassed a little girl - or her mother - for selling water bottles! What kind of grown woman bullies, threatens, and tries to intimidate a child like this? That’s absolutely sick. I’m so glad the girl made it to Disneyland! 🏰❤
She's fake crying because she got infamous for bullying a CHILD!!

Amed Tajan this has nothing to do with the little girl who died in Atlanta... However not one tear in sight

@@youtuber-tg1pu He's obviously not sympathizing with the racist chick. I think he's just being cautious and rationalizing things. See it as you want though, Toby.
@@Zepego-jk2iz the girl was 8, worse thing that could happen is...I don't know you get intoxicated cause from wherever the water came from was not properly treated. The worse that could happen. And thus far it hasn't happened. We are not talking about a possibly shady thing and unknown procedence, is simply a little girl that wanted to earn money for disneyland so put water (presumably treated, with the help of her mother that we can assume id smart enough to know to not sell poisoned water and gain a lawsuit) in bottles. If you're that mistristful of the world then your problem is something else. Also if there's really a person that would sue an 8 year old then they would be as low as the lady in the video. Also also I am 100% sure the lady that made the call was not thinking about anyone safety but her own.
Dihydrogen monoxide
Next time mind your own business and absolutely 100% leave the children alone!
I remember every litter girl used to always doing this for fundraising without a permit.

Aww I'm so glad she gets to go to Disneyland. I do not understand why someone like this woman thought if she called the authority's that the police would make that little girl shut that down . She needs to be ashamed of herself I do not care how many email she is getting she did it to herself . It's called keep your nose out of everybody's business. bless that little girl and her mom and family.
It is very sad when someone's horrible behaviour is made clear to them in such a public way. We all have some darkness in us. If she is now ashamed of her behaviour - as she should be - maybe she learned a very painful lesson.
