This one was very close to being a hate crime, but not quite. Had it read...
The woman who hit the man who was lodged in her windshield until he died in her garage is black white and told her friends she hit a 'white' 'black' man.
Do you see the difference now?
Now I see, Actually I never learned of the racial overtones until just the other day and the story has been reported for months. Seems the press did not think it was all that important that he was white and she kept calling him the 'white guy stuck in my windshield'.
Wonder what the people from her church had to say?
