Central Park confrontation between white woman and black man goes viral He said Tuesday that unleashed dogs have been a long standing issue in Central Park’s Ramble and that it was not his first confrontation after asking a dog owner to leash their dogs. As an avid birdwatcher, Christian said that he is often in the Ramble and asks for dogs to be leashed in an effort to preserve the area’s environment and wildlife. You know, dogs off the leash in the Ramble is not anything comparable to the civil rights movement But one of the things I got from growing up that way is that when people trample on your rights, you don't take that lying down, you push back. And that's what I do.
