This white man in Tallahassee, Florida blocked black students from going into an apartment building. The students were trying to visit a friend when this man blocked the elevator & brandished a firearm at the students to intimidate them. Twitter, who is he?
FWIW, the racist didn't even live in the apartment building and he was trying to run off the students.

Update: His name is Don Crandall, hes a hotel manager with the Pat Hotel Group at the Baymont Inn & Suites by Widham Hotels. According to the company hes been fired.
I think that his career in the hospitality industry is over, unless the KKK is looking for some help.

(45,462 posts)Don Crandall is not falling for the old "visiting friends" routine.
Not sure what the policy is in that building, but in mine the guests have to call the resident to come down and let them in or give their names at the front desk. We have a no piggy backing rule enforced by cameras. The people who challenge me to ask if I have a key fob for my condo building where I've lived/owned for 3 years are always women, white or black. Never had a dude challenge me, ever.
Showing the gun to intimidate them is just plain wrong. Glad he got fired. What a douche.

If a black man pulled a gun on 4 white college students, and refused them access to a dorm..
That man should be in jail right now.
