Obama’s just waiting for the first white person to respond in kind.

What goes around, comes around Missie.

[al baby]

She is special kinda of stupid

[”I don’t want to feel this way” James states in the video. “I don’t feel sad for the officers who lost their lives ... I know that’s not really my heart. I value human life. And I want to feel sad for them but I can’t help but feeling like the shooter was a martyr]

What a disgrace. Take her crown away and her scholarship.

[pepsionice]

Joan of Arc was a Martyr....this guy in Texas was something a lot less than a Martyr. On the Martyr scale of one to ten....this guy was a minus-ten.

[major-pelham]

She’s an unadmitted Jihadi.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

She later clarified her thoughts and expressed her condolences to the families of the slain officers in a statement to AL.com.

In other words, she got a panicked call from her agent in which the agent called her a complete idiot and asked her if she wanted to lose her crown and never get an endorsement deal, record contract or movie deal again.

It was from 1993.

[cyclotic]

Her “reign” was over two decades ago.

Just a small town TV host looking to remain relevant.

[where's_the_Outrage?]

No wonder there is a racial divide. I would say most people believe that randomly killing uninvolved police officials are not actions of a martyr, but actions of a murderer.

[crusty old prospector]

I didn’t know Reverend Wright had a branch church in Mobile.

[Stentor]

No change in my thinking on this subject since my target status became obvious on October 3, 1995.

[Farmer Dean]

She was Miss Alabama 1993.After 23 years the best she could do is local tv personality.

[silverleaf]

Mentally ill

Needs therapy

Time to start calling it what it is

Mass psychosis

[Gamecock]

**I know that’s not really my heart.**

That is exactly your heart.

Cold. A dark place.

[stars & stripes forever]

[It was from 1993]

Sorry about that.

The scholarship apparently didn’t do her any good.

[HamiltonJay]

Because you were raised and educated in a way that didn’t teach you emotional maturity... Like most Americans in the last 40 years.

[I want the USA back]

She won’t be asked to resign. But when a normal person expressed doubts about BLM, all hell broke loose.

[ThunderSleeps]

In other words, she got a panicked call from her agent in which the agent called her a complete idiot and asked her if she wanted to lose her crown and never get an endorsement deal, record contract or movie deal again.

I would bet good money you are exactly right.

I actually almost feel sorry for her. Almost. I mean, it is a terrible thing when you realize she just added credence to the stereotype of "the dumb beauty pageant contestant." While it is kind of sad to see that negative stereotype reinforced, she did do it in a spectacularly stupid way. I guess if you're going to go stupid, go big.
