The videos of Black people going about their business and being accosted by random racists never end. All of these videos have an implied threat, because violence against Black people often happens without any consequence for the perpetrators.

But this video posted to Reddit by u/manny8086 has a very explicit threat: a white lady pointing a rifle at a Black Amazon delivery man.

In the video, filmed by the driver, the white woman in a red coat can be seen standing on her porch, pointing the gun at the driver. She seems a little shakey and possibly confused, which makes her even scarier.
“Straight got the gun pointed at me, like what is she doing?” the driver asks as he films the threatening woman. “Like, what the f–k, bro?”
“Like wtf, bro!” he adds, “She tweaking,” he comments, as the woman waivers. Some commenters have wondered if the strange object hanging from her porch light is a noose.

Though it may be a dog leash. The gun is kind of the issue at the moment. The video ended up on Twitter as well, where people expressed their disgust and exhaustion with these types of encounters:
These racist white supremacists are looking for any excuse to show their hostility even if it’s obvious there is no threat. https://t.co/ROeghaHb7t

It’s not clear where the video originated from, or if any official reports was made to Amazon or the authorities. Hopefully, the delivery driver is okay.
