1. The whole Susan Smith travesty

There was also that Charles Stuart who murdered his wife for insurance $, and claimed it was a black man who did it.

How sad for the little boy.

2. There's something especially despicable about a white person falsly accusing a black person

of a crime. I remember back in like 1989 or so, Charles Stuart murdered his pregnant wife, Carol, in Boston. He blamed it on a black man and the cops went nuts, committing all kinds of civil rights violations, then threw an innocent man in jail for it. They had racial strife for months. Then the coward committed suicide when his brother confessed to helping him get rid of stuff the black man supposedly stole. Things didn't really calm down until the wife's family set up a scholarship for black students in her name. Utterly shameful.

3. Seems like it happens quite often . .

6. I can think of two other times it has happened, offhand.

This isn't like calling the cops because they don't like that AA people are in their neighborhood or in the park or whatever. I'm talking about cases where someone tried to blame murder on nonexistent black men. It seems like it is actually very uncommon.

4. We don't want your kids. We don't even want to be adjacent to your kids.

If your kid gets lost I have to factor out the chances I'm somehow going to be blamed for something. If, that's right if, I bring said kid to the police; and no, I'm not kidding. The justice system is always ready to run us under the jail if not outright kill us. That mind you is without some sort of blanket "justification" for it. I see no reason to help the chances of that along if it can be avoided.

7. It appears that the police didn't believe her for a second.

Fortunately.

12. See post 11...ain't the first time..won't be the last.

8. We don't want your kids. Reminds me of the stand up comedy jokes

during the Susan Smith Saga. Drawing on the stereotype that black men are absentee fathers. " We don't even want our own damn kids, why do you think we want yours?"

5. Huh, it's almost like we live in a racist society, or something.

9. I remember when I got the amber alert that night

I had a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach that there was more to this story and it was going to be a whole lot worse.

11. It ain't the first time...? Back in the 90s a woman said the same thing..

But she lied about how the guy got in the car and kidnapped her kid..The lady said she was stopped at a stop light and a black man jumped in her car, and kidnapped and killed her son....

When the police interviewed her, and she told the story for the first time...They waited and asked what corner was it?..and the lady said...So and so...and the cops knew immediately that she was lying...

NO STOPLIGHT AT ...SO AND SO CORNER...

that lady got life in prison...if she is still alive..that is where she is..No I don't know her name and will not look it up.
