A woman in a wealthy San Francisco neighborhood confronted a man for stenciling “Black Lives Matter” in chalk on his own property, reports ABC7 News.

The incident recorded on video has gone viral with KRON-TV reporting that more than 10 million people have seen it.

“She (Alexander) decided to call men with guns because of chalk art,” said James Juanillo.

Twitter users have identified her as Lisa Alexander, CEO of LaFace Skincare. Birchbox, a make-up subscription service, confirmed that, saying as a result of the CEO’s action, it has formally cut ties with the company.

Alexander assumed the Filipino American, who wanted to express his support for the Black Lives Matter movement, did not live at the Pacific Heights property. In fact, he has lived in the posh neighborhood since 2002.

In the video posted on Juanillo’s Facebook and Twitter account with the username: @jaimetoons, the couple can be heard saying, “Is this your property?”

“We’re not doing anything illegal,” says the couple.

“Neither am I,” says Juanillo.

“Yes you are actually, because it’s private property,” says the couple.

“Call the cops,” says Juanillo, he said casually.

“We will do so,” says the couple.

“If I did live here, and this was my property, this would be absolutely fine? And you don’t know if I live here, if this is my property?” Juanillo can be heard asking on video.

A woman identified as Lisa Alexander assumed that James Juanillo did not live in Pacific Heights in San Francisco.

Alexander has not responded to the media’s request for comment.

Juanillo told the NBC affiliate that he had lived in his house since 2002. He said he knew the police who responded to the couples 911 call. He said the police knew him and knew he lived at that address.  As they drove up the police said, "Nice stencilling," waved and drove away, according to Juanillo.

The couple returned after the police left, said Juanillo and he waved at them from his window. "All they had to do was knock on the door and say 'I'm sorry'" and he never would have posted the video recording on Twitter. Instead, they walked away.

In a message to the couple, he told CBS News, “If you want to come to my house and talk to me like an equal, then I will hear what you have to say and consider an apology,”

Juanillo told CBS that he’s a proud gay Filipino who knows what discrimination feels like. “This isn’t the first time I’ve experienced fear or even loathing that just kind of creeps out,” he said.

“I think its important that this not be just in the Castro, SOMA, that it be in the Marina, Laurel Heights, and Pacific Heights,” said Juanillo to NBC Bay Area. “When people who need to be woke can read it and see that its OK to have a statement like this in a neighborhood like this… Trust me, this neighborhood is in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement.”
