A white man armed with a gun was caught on video hurling racial slurs and threats at a Black woman and her children after they parked on a public street in front of his home.
In the video, the man, identified on social media as 57-year-old Wayne Cunningham, brandished a firearm as he shouted at the family, who live across the street, “My mama owned your mama. Your mama served me food, you f**king dumb n****r."
The footage was first posted on social media by Kansas City Discover, a Black-owned news outlet, on Christmas Eve.
“A family from Kansas City, Missouri, encountered racial slurs after parking their vehicle across the street from their residence, which led to a confrontation with a neighbor who used derogatory language. According to the family, they were threatened in the presence of their children when the individual brandished a firearm. Law enforcement was summoned, but reportedly took no action.”
Social media users quickly identified Cunningham and slammed his racist behavior.
“What a nasty man. He should be arrested, enough with the racism, we are all human beings created by the same God and we all going to be buried in the same ground, rich, poor, Black and white,” one commenter wrote on TikTok.
“Pretty disgusting behavior, makes my stomach turn. It’s so sad this exists. So sorry this happens, especially in front of your child,” another person wrote.
Others criticized the Kansas City Police Department for not taking action against the man.
“Law enforcement doesn’t punish the white guy brandishing a firearm? How typically KCPD of them," one social media user wrote.
