Kalyn Chapman James, the first African American to hold the Miss Alabama title, said on Sunday that she doesn't want to "feel this way," but finds it hard to be sad for the Dallas police officers and "can't help but feeling like the shooter was a martyr."
"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," she says in the video.
In response to AL.com about her Facebook post, James issued this message late Sunday night:
"My heart and my mind were conflicted because these are difficult and very emotional times for so many people. I went to church to address my feelings and deal with them from a perspective of forgiveness and love. Especially forgiving myself for feeling that way. I regret that any people lost their lives this week and I am saddened by all of the shootings that occurred. But, this is not about me. When reading about the killings of those black men, I was mortified by some of the comments about them. Many People were not conflicted at all about those deaths. Some were okay with this. These are raw wounds that are fresh and, while I apologize if I offended anyone, I cannot help the way I feel as I continue to process these events and deal with the flood of emotions that come from witnessing such atrocities - both against citizens and officers of the law. The fact that my opinion was considered newsworthy makes me feel like speaking up was exactly what I should do, because I can voice what so many people are feeling and dealing with and they should know they are not alone. I reiterate that I do not condone violence or killing at all. I offer my deepest condolences to all the families who lost their loved ones this week, including the officers in Dallas."
She’s not very attractive.
“I want world peace and I’m fascinated by small shiny objects.”
Maybe she looks better with make up and a wig.
She’s UGLY inside and out.
“If she was the winner, what did the rest of the contestants look like?”
White.
When did all the attractive women leave Alabama?
I wonder what sort of disorder caused the mind warp. Kalyn Chapman James has a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a minor in Sociology from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. She is too well educated to come up with such hogwash. What kind of cultural influence has affected her thinking? Could some form of genetic defect have produced some kind of synapse trigger to block her mental functions? Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) from the stressful efforts of the Miss Alabama Pageant may have suffered a flashback effect. She needs to step away from the mental triggers causing her problem and seek professional help.
She was Miss Alabama in 1993, 23 years ago.
She was probably very attractive then.
I wouldn't call her ugly........ But she is defiantly plain. How bad looking were the other contestants?
Not much beauty in her statement. Alabama must have had some uglies entries into the copetition this year.
Miss Alabama? - who elects these people?.....
From her FB page: “When reading about the killings of those black men, I was mortified by some of the comments about them. Many People were not conflicted at all about those deaths.”
Valid point. But I doubt seriously the shooter cared about the loved ones of those he killed. Everyone who is killed leaves someone behind who loved and will miss them. And that includes the cop killer in Dallas who committed suicide by cop. His father is devastated by the loss and by his son’s actions.
It seems the cop in Minnesota was very upset with his actions. But I’m sure there are some cops who don’t care about those they kill. A way needs to be figured out how to weed the bad ones from the pool.
So why isn’t this racist bitch run out of town already?
Something is going on with her? We are seeing a major meltdown. The cancellation of her show Art Loft on WPBT? A breakup with her husband, Rico?
I disagree. Let ‘em live with her; and rue the stupidity of affirmative action beauty contest winners. The winner, regardless of physical attributes, should ALWAYS be required to have at least a trace of a brain.
or she is simply a narcissist or sociopath. They do not have empathy.
She’s “in” with the Devil’s cause.
Perfect fulfillment of Isaiah 5:20:
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Matthew 6:23
But if your vision is poor, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!
Proverbs 17:15
He who justifies the wicked and he who condemns the righteous, Both of them alike are an abomination to the LORD.
She is possessed by the same spirit as the Fakestinians.
You know what times we’re living in.
IMO, affirmative action at work in her selection.
