rockabyebaby is correct here. ottbmare, you made up things that were not in the article and have refused to acknowledge it.

The girl is the victim here. Shame on you for fabricating things.

I did not "make things up." That is an unjust and insulting accusation not befitting a Freeper. You have essentially called me a liar. I must object to this.

I repeated what I had read in other news sources apart from the later article, and what was reported in the local community. You and rockabyebaby are basing your accusations upon one news report, a later one that had apparently been corrected as more information emerged, which often happens in developing news stories.

It was my understanding that Miss Daly was approached by law enforcement right outside of the Harris-Teeter, and that she ran, on foot. It is now being said that she was approached by one undercover officer, a woman, not seven officers simultaneously, and that she was next to her vehicle, but we can't know what the truth is yet. There were also initial reports (coming from the ABC officers, who seem to have been exaggerating) that she drove off and "struck" two officers. That report has now been changed to "slightly grazing" them as she drove by. I posted information from the first reports that used the word "struck." That does not mean that I fabricated anything, only that I repeated the initial version of events that made it to press.

Why would you assume the worst, that I am making things up? Whenever news events take place there are different events. If someone forms an opinion of what has transpired that is different from your view, does that make him or her a liar? There are a variety of sources on situations like this and assuming that another Freeper is lying astonishes me. Why would you not make the more generous and likely assumption that I am truthfully relaying what I believed to be the facts?

I will not communicate with Rockabyebaby anymore, but I am glad that your post has given me the opportunity to say that I not ashamed of what I posted and I do not apologize.
