Literally gatekeeping

An Oregon dog owner says she was locked inside a baseball field after another woman confronted her about bringing her leashed dog onto the property. Most commenters accused the woman of falsely imprisoning her, while a smaller group argued the field wasn’t meant for dogs in the first place.

hi, I was debating on posting this but i have a feeling that this isn’t her first time treating someone like this, and i wanted to share my experience. I would like to preface that i am a new dog owner and brought my dog to the baseball field because i wanted to get his energy out and give him some exercise. I am still learning and my dog is afraid of other dogs, especially much larger dogs because he is only 5 pounds. She mentions that she was following me outside of the field, but i was intentionally staying away because her dog is huge and mine was uncomfortable. I was not trying to approach her, her dog, or create an issue. I had headphones in, so if she was trying to speak to me, i couldn’t hear her. She never tried to come inside to speak to me or get my attention directly. The video is my first interaction with her. If she was waiting at the door and approached me calmly and said, “can you move your dog?” or explained what the concern was, i would have left. I had no problem leaving. I am open to being corrected and learning. I am a new dog owner and i understand that i still have things to learn, but there is a way to go about it. Instead, her initial response was telling me that if she could keep me locked in there, she would. Like at that point, is it really about the baseball field?? She refused to let me out until i mentioned that she was being recorded. I’m sharing this because i don’t think anyone should be made to feel threatened or trapped when a simple conversation could have resolved the situation. You have no right to keep anyone against their will from leaving the only exit. I feel targeted and disgusted. If running with my leashed dog makes you this aggressive and angry, you have bigger problems. #falseimprisonment #karen #fyp #dog #karensgonewild

Posted to TikTok by @ttv.saxie, the video picks up mid-confrontation, with the creator locked inside the gated field. “Unlock the door!” she says. The woman responds by cursing at her, which the creator returns before demanding again that she move and unlock the gate. The woman claims she works at the field and questions why @ttv.saxie is there at all.

After more arguing, Saxie eventually unlocks the gate herself. As she exits, she tells the woman the field isn’t her property either. Later she accuses her of being bored and looking for a confrontation.

In her caption, the Oregon creator said she felt “targeted” and “disgusted” by the encounter, and that a normal conversation could have resolved the situation without anyone feeling threatened.

TikTok Reacts

The word “kidnapping” came up repeatedly in the comments, with many viewers treating the lockout as more than just a disagreement over dogs.

“Why is that beekeeper falsely imprisoning you?” one commenter asked. Another added, “You understand that’s kidnapping what she did to you right? I hope you called the police and reported her.”

Several viewers focused on how unnecessary the entire confrontation seemed. “These people are MISERABLE. So many people take their dogs to baseball fields/tennis courts etc. to let them run around, she just wanted to pick a fight,” one wrote.

Not every commenter was fully sympathetic to the Oregon creator, though. One pointed out that she could have simply left once the gate was unlocked. “Honestly though, as soon as the gate was opened, you could’ve just gone. You stayed there arguing longer, which wasn’t necessary.”

Another sided more with the woman’s underlying complaint. “She’s right, the league and parents pay for the fields. It takes a lot to take and chalk the fields. While her delivery is wrong you are very wrong as well.”

What seemed to bother viewers most was the need to police someone else’s behavior. Some felt the creator may have been wrong to use the Oregon baseball field, but the confrontation went too far once the woman tried to prevent her from leaving.
