MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING....NOT !!!!

So, it seems Bonnie Sweeten is going the same route as Susan Smith,
the South Carolina woman who killed her kids, and the Texan, Ashley Todd, who claimed that fella's burned a "B" in her face during last year's election. What do they all have in common BESIDES being mentally disturbed? They blamed ME for their misfortunes! Well, not me, personally, but it may as well have been. They each said Black men accosted them, kidnapped them, or threatened to do them harm.
Yeah, we do our dirt, don't "get it twisted", but it is very disheartening to see that after centuries of growth in knowledge, wisdom, and understanding, people still buy into the notion about the delicate, fair, and virtuous, White woman and the big, monstrous, and brutal Black man. It's a stereotype on both sides of the equation, but a very believable one to many, even in this day and time.

In reality, I could care less about her deception and lies. I am more concerned about all of the men that you will NOT hear about that were accused, rounded up, and taken in for questioning due to her sinister story. She even had the nerve to say it happened in Philadelphia, of all places!
I mean, they had pictures of Ms. Sweeten and her daughter on nationwide TV, Amber alerts, and if given time, I am sure they would have been on America's Most Wanted. People across the country were riled up and angry, very angry!
So, the dragnet was thrown out, the "usual suspects" brought in, and everyone was a potential target. Well, until today.... Oops.

mental illness wasn't a factor, deception was the illness. lets not confuse the two, i wonder if a black woman stated that her children were abducted by two white males would the media respond in the same way.????
