"She said nothing to the other people that [were] not in proper pool attire, but chose to say something only to us, the only black family out there."
In the now-viral Facebook post, Porter, who goes by Kam on the social media platform, said she was at her building's pool with her boyfriend and two godchildren. Her boyfriend was sitting at the pool's edge, watching the children in the water, with his feet dangling in the water while wearing socks.
A woman, whom Porter said she'd noticed "constantly watching us and whispering amongst her friends" from the time they arrived at the pool, approached them. She told them she's the property manager and Porter's boyfriend had to take his socks off.
Porter, 25, told BuzzFeed News they had been at the pool several times before and never had any issues. Her boyfriend had also worn socks in the pool previously, she said.
=========================================================================
This went back & forth until the usual conclusion: the property manager called the cops who defused the situation. But the property manager got fired for her racist attitude & actions.
