White woman charged in parking lot spat with black women
https://www.yahoo.com/news/white-woman-charged-parking-spot-melee-2-black-094503156.html

A Bibb County Sheriff's report says Judy James Tucker told deputies it all started because she's white and it was a race issue.

The report says 34-year-old Stephanie Mitchell told deputies that Tucker's adult son, Robbie, used obscene, sexist language as he told her and 27-year-old Treasure Sharpe to "learn how to park" on Saturday. Then, report says, the Tuckers followed the uniformed women inside, where Robbie Tucker called them "black lesbian b------."

Others inside the Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen restaurant began recording. Video shows Judy Tucker striking Sharpe in the face while trying to stop her from recording as well. At one point, Sharpe says "I'm pregnant," and Robbie Tucker says "Oh really, by her?"

The report says deputies reviewed cellphone video and determined that Judy Tucker was the primary aggressor, and there's no evidence suggesting the other women did anything wrong. Jail records show the Macon woman was arrested and released on $650 bond. The deputies wrote that they were still investigating and more charges could be pending.

I'm so happy she was arrested -- with perhaps more charges pending.

to white racists. That is the only way all that nastiness will end -- or at least go back into the closet.

And wins. We need hate crime laws in this country that carry harsher penalties if you assault someone like this woman did. Bigotry should not be tolerated, and racists should be publicly shamed.

People can see for themselves how much crap black folks have to put up with. Its exhausting. I just read on another blog of two friends that did an experiment of a bar that had a no sneaker policy- black friend gave his Jordans to his white friend, white friend gets into the club no problem. Next time black friend wears the Jordans gets kicked out. Hmmm Kkk??? So white kid wearing Jordans OK. Black kid wearing Jordans Not OK.
