Was the White Rabbit at Disneyland in Cali acting out of line?
New video obtained by 10News appears to show a Disneyland character — the White Rabbit — behaving badly by cursing and getting physical. 10News recently broke the story of a lawsuit filed by a local family accusing the same character of refusing to hug or hold hands with four African-American children. In the 30-second video, the laughter heard right away is coming from the father shooting the cellphone video during a June visit to Disneyland. After one of Manuel Carlos’ daughters pulls on the tail of the White Rabbit, his other daughter, 14-year-old Jocelyn, also takes a turn. Immediately, the rabbit follows her. Jocelyn Carlos said the character held her by the arm and neck. ”He told me, ‘Don’t you ever do that again or I will call security, and tell your stupid friend to stop doing it to,’” said Jocelyn. Moments later, someone is heard yelling, “Hey you, get off of her.” The family’s attorney, Dan Gilleon, plans to use the new video as evidence in the suit. ”It’s classic evidence. They aren’t supervised and they think they can get away with treating their guests very poorly. It’s clear as day these cast members … aren’t too concerned about behaving badly in public,” said Gilleon. In a statement, Disney said: ”This seems to be a blatant attempt by a lawyer to generate publicity for a case that has no merit. If anything, all this video shows is a family of misbehaving guests deliberately provoking a character for their own malicious amusement.”
Honestly, I'm on the rabbit's side here.
That kid walks up to the rabbit and yanks on his tail, then laughs in his face. The kicker here is that dad is not only laughing about it the whole time, he's video taping it too.
Poor rabbit dude is sweating his fuzzy cajones off just trying to make some money for his family and he has a spoiled brat yanking on his backside.
Hey Dad, why don't you tell your daughter to leave him alone already. I'm on team White Rabbit here. Heck, this girl is lucky it wasn't the Queen of Hearts. You know, with all of the beheading she does.
