Jemele Hill spots racism in ‘overzealous’ reaction to Carlee Russell kidnap hoax: ‘Do some critical thinking’
NY Post ^ | 08/08/2023 | Lindsay Kornick, Fox News

“Overzealous” legal backlash over the Carlee Russell kidnapping hoax came only because a Black woman was at the center of it, The Atlantic writer Jemele Hill tweeted.

After it was found that Russell, a 24-year-old nursing student, had fabricated the story of her abduction, police officers filed two misdemeanor charges against the Alabama woman.

State lawmakers are also seeking to increase the penalties for faking a kidnapping.

Through her X (formerly known as Twitter) account, Hill called these efforts “overzealous” actions taken because of Russell’s race, claiming the same thing would not have happened if she was White.

Sherri Papini caused a national story for weeks, and got 18 months in federal prison.

Oh, and the Papini and Petito cases caused accusations of “cute white girl syndrome” for media and law enforcement responses.

She is so ignorant. A white woman was put in jail not too long ago for the same thing. She doesn’t even try to learn or research anything.

“She is black so let her off with no charges....”

More blacks than you might think really do believe they should not be obligated to follow the rules and laws of our society.
Which is the real reason so many black men get into a bad spot with police because they absolutely refuse to comply with the simplest of police directions.

Why you might ask?

Because for decades now they have been taught America is a racist country built on the backs of their slave ancestors, and wouldn’t be what it is without that “fact”. That notion can be used for a myriad of excuses to behave the way they do. From claiming they can’t get a job because of racism to claiming racist white police hunt them down and shoot them for no reason.

THAT is their “critical thinking”.

It’s funny how really stupid people that don’t know they are stupid, like this Jamelle person. What’s not funny is that they can vote.

Her psychological affliction is called the Dunning-Kruger cognitive bias. Very common among certain groups of people!

all the race hoaxes have black people as the cause. Jemel is bat-spit cray-cray.

Today, everything is racists. Taking a crap is racists. Wiping one’s butt is racists. Going to bed is racists. Eating breakfast is racists. Drinking coffee is racists. I do not know of a thing today that is not racists. The sky is racists. The ground is racists. The water is racists. it did not used to be that way. Back when the Country was run by sane individuals.

When will Jussie go back to jail?

(That’s a rhetorical question, by the way, because we all know he will never see another day in jail)

The story was dubious at best right at the outset. Police were on to her quickly...there was no need to expand the search. Simple.

Generally speaking- the ones screaming racism the loudest are the worst racists among the people. This women is the epitome of this phenomenon.
