A Black man in Texas is facing criticism online after a statement surfaced in which he said he kills White people outside the Karmelo Anthony trial.
The trial of Karmelo Anthony is a criminal case being heard at the Collin County Courthouse in Texas. Anthony is accused of fatally stabbing fellow teenager Austin Metcalf during an incident at a high school track meet in April 2025. Prosecutors allege the confrontation escalated from a dispute at the event, while the defense argues that Anthony acted in self-defense. The case is being tried in adult court and has drawn public and media attention due to its circumstances. Outside the courthouse, supporters and protesters have gathered in separate groups, holding signs and expressing opposing views.
A video circulating online showed the Black man, identified by some as a supporter of Anthony, threatening a White individual outside the courthouse. “Get my face on camera,” the man said. He then made a statement in which he referenced killing White people. “We kill [racial slur],” he said. The use of the term, which is widely regarded as a racial slur targeting White people, led some viewers online to label his remarks as racist.
The man continued making threatening remarks toward the individual, including saying, “Where I come from, we kill them [White people].” He also stated that if he saw the individual outside of Texas, he would “have a problem.” He later made additional remarks, including, “I like to smell burning flesh.”
“The time you having fear on us is over [racial slur],” he then added. Finally, the man said that Black people are no longer scared of White people. The video ended at that point, and it is not clear whether any further confrontation occurred afterward.
Viewers Criticize Black Texas Man Following Racist Remarks
The video sparked reactions online. Many viewers criticized the Black Texas man over the remarks and threats he made toward the White individual. Some users also alleged that he threatened multiple White people outside the courthouse, though these claims have not been independently verified. “I have now watched over 20+ different videos on X with this [expletive] threatening the lives of all the white people who are in the proximity of him. This is not protected speech, it is a CRIME! When does justice get served?” one person asked.
The individual who received the threats also wrote, “I’m looking into pursuing charges and a protective order.” More viewers expressed outrage, with one person saying, “You’ll never see this type of open and violent racism on video from any other race. No coded language or troupe dog whistles that they say. Just out in the open.”
The video prompted discussion online about allegations of racist behavior directed toward the White individual in the footage. It also led to broader conversations about documenting such incidents and the potential consequences for those involved.
