Well, you're wrong on both counts. I didn't assume anything. As for the Texas mother who killed her five children, demon possession is the most likely explanation. She was out in zombieland and didn't even try to hide her crime. The windshield murderer, on the other hand, was cold, calculating, and had full possession of her faculties (and she had two days to sober up if she was on something). You can see the difference, can't you?
See my post #17. And no I paid no attention to her name at the time. I was just questioning if she would be tried for a hate crime in Texas.
One might say such things just to get "close enough".
LOL! She may show up on Oprah...maybe she should write a book...
Possible title--"That Sexist Pig ALWAYS Criticized My Driving"
Not at all, I am certain that any race of people is capable of such cold-hearted crime. I do, however, feel that blacks in America in 2002 are far more likely to commit such crimes than whites in America in 2002. FBI violent crime and murder statistics back me up completely. How do you respond to that?
Don't forget that you are the one that asked someone to call you a racist. Based on the evidence, I obliged you. Have a nice day.
How you can even try to compare these two cases is beyond me. For starters, how many of the mother's friends helped her conceal the crime, a crime that she didn't even try to conceal herself? It's the difference between insanity (or demon possession), and a cold blooded kidnapper/torturer/ murderer who had the full support of her "community" (minus the one who had a conscience and spilled the beans) in hiding her viscious crime.
"Accessory to murder" is a more appropriate charge.
After reading all the details, I'm not especially shocked by what I read. The lack of respect for any life, and the ability to engage in cold, criminal acts is common in Detroit. We haven't had anything this bad recently, or more probably, it's been kept out of the media. We have had a mother and her four kids shot up, with one dying, because her boyfriend bought a stolen ghetto blaster with $40 in counterfeit money.
We have a subculture where life is cheap, and you can kill for the slightest reason. And one has plenty of friends that share that same view, and will assist you without batting an eyelash.I can bet you there is no outrage over this murder in that subculture. Except maybe that this poor woman is being oppressed by "the man", just like that white guy that attacked her by throwing himself through her windshield.
So what about those FBI statistics?
That bitch didn't look too "little" to me in the photo.
Perhaps the judge had a sense of humor. Or perhaps he was just hoping some enraged citizens would alleviate the need for a lengthy and costly trial process.
Frankly, I'm surprised they let her out on bail, considering the way even the defense doesn't want the defendant out on the street in the Westerfield case.
Tom, I agree with your take. After exposure to the Chante "type", I can tell you I will bet on it that she did not go in there saying she was sorry but asked "Are you dead yet you son of a b*tch?" I say this because I have been exposed to black women like this where white mena and women have been dehumanized in thier eyes. I had a black woman go up to a mutual friend whose home I stayed at one night(I had never met this woman before) and ask what that "white b*tch" is doing here. As if I was not even there and having never met me before, ever! It's not hard to imagine if Chante had this same attitude that she didn't see Biggs as anymore than a fly on her windshield, subhuman in her eyes. She's likely sorry now only because she got caught. Thank you Jesse Jackson, NAACP, and others who made moments like this possible.
