I'll take Crazy for $500, Alex

   Again, a black person (usually a man, now a woman) is blamed for these these horrific crimes, only to be discovered that these women pointing the fingers are both the victim and the perpetrator. This particular story disturbs me on so many levels. I am glad however, to know that there isn't a black female acid-thrower out there, looking for 'pretty' women to disfigure. Do they think they would garner more sympathy and anger if they accuse a black person of the crime? 
28-year-old Vancouver woman admitted today that she threw acid in her own face, severely burning herself Aug. 30, Vancouver Police Chief Clifford Cook said this afternoon.

I just read this story and I am MORTIFIED!!! Why do people continue to accuse black people of everything???? All we need is race riot over some white woman being attacked!

I'm so disgusted with her! And how is she talking about Jesus and doing such un Christ like things? It makes me sad. Boo to her just Booooooooooo! :(

I just changed the title of this blog entry, based on one of the comments which I liked. I agree with you. When I first heard the story weeks ago, I suddenly imagined people looking at each sister with the side eye. And each sister feeling unnecesaarily paranoid. I try to improve my looks, constantly How do you permanently disfigure your own face just to cause mass hysteria and paranoia? And call yourself a Christian?

Gorgeous_Puddin said...

Exactly! That was all kinds of crazy! Clearly NOT a christian!

And I completely agree with you.
How could she do that to herself?

On further investigation that composite sketch looks like and alien. I would have been questioning her further because it doesn't even look like a real person!

I'm still mad about this. People have to do better in 2010.

Imagine if this was the 50's or 60's or even the 70's??? Innocent people could have been arrested and killed for no reason! It's just scary that this is still happening!

Really scary. Charges were filed today. On the news this morning, they said that she wore gloves and wiped her face with a drain cleaner because she wanted plastic surgery and couldn't afford it, at the same time that she wanted to kill herself. She thought all the attention would die down quickly when the perpetrator couldn't be found. She was wrong. As upset as I am about her placing blame on people of color (knowing that she would get more sympathy), I also pity her and I am praying for her mental health. I hope that those in charge will seriously hesitate before rushing to judgment the next time a white person accuses an unknown black person of harming them. I can't even imagine what the sisters in Vancouver were feeling when she made up that lie.

I read on a gossip site that women that fit the profile went into hiding in Vancouver and were harrassed on the street. I hope that isn't true!

I pity her as well. You really can't be a Christian and not have compassion for her clearly mentally deranged self.

Isn't it sad? I wouldn't be surprised. Yes I constantly pray for her. I pray for my enemies as much as I pray for my family and loved ones. I had a new boss once who hated me from day one. She tried to compile enough of my mistakes to justify firing me. she wasn't liked by anyone in the department. I didn't pray that she be removed. I prayed that God finds favor with me and with her. On her 6 month probationary period, she was fired. :) And I'm still at the company!

Love it! God is so Awesome! And He protects his own! She clearly had no idea who she was messing with! LOL!

I'm a work in progress for praying for my enemies. Pray for me! LOL!

Matter of fact pray for me period. It sounds like you can get a prayer through. I need that in my life right now. I'm emailing you my real name so when you pray to God you can say my name. *smile*

*smile* I'm a work in progress as well. When I have doubts, my mom and my best friend both put me right back on track.
