Woman calls cops on man peacefully protesting alone in Florida suburb and says she 'doesn't want the wrong people coming to the neighborhood'

A white woman in Florida decided to call police on a solo white protester in an suburban neighborhood because she didn't want the 'wrong people' to come to the neighborhood. 
Shane Meyers was holding a 'Black Lives F***ing Matter' sign on the side of the road in Wellington - a city where roughly 12 per cent of the population is black. 
In a Wednesday video he shared to TikTok, rapper AngieonMars can be heard cheering for Meyers peaceful protest for black lives, following the deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor.

But in the next clip, Meyers is stopped by a two officers who have been called to the scene by an older white woman.
Meyers already voices his discomfort about two officers needing to be on the scene, but the officer tells him: 'The only reason there is two is because of our safety, we don't know what's going on.'

'She is the one who approached me,' Meyers tells the officers. 'I was standing here on the side.' 
The woman asks for Meyers not to put out the sign because 'it is going to bring up the wrong people.'

But the responding police officer sides with Meyers, even though he doesn't seem the most thrilled about it.
'Unfortunately, he is able to stand here with the sign and whatever he wants to say on it,' the cop says.
The woman shares with the cop and Meyers that she is just upset because she doesn't want to get 'caught if they start rioting' because of the sign.

'I'm also upset because black and brown lives are at risk every single day in this country,' Meyers quickly retorts.
But the officer and the woman both start giving him the 'AllLivesMatter' variation of everyone being at risk, to which Meyers thanks them for 'bothsidesing' him.
'And we need to appreciate everything they do,' the woman declares. 
Meyers then reads loudly from his sign, which upsets the woman. She derides him for having the profanity on the sign because 'kids are reading that.'  
'I'm sorry you're a snowflake,' Meyers says as the clips comes to a close, showing the woman even more upset. 
The video has been heavily circulated across various social media platforms since it was initially posted. On TikTok it has been viewed more than 400,000 times.
