Texas: Woman recants story of attack by KKK
A 32-year-old black woman who said she was abducted, robbed and sexually assaulted by two white men last week has recanted her story. The woman, who lives in Bivins, about 150 miles east of Dallas, told police that she carved the letters "KKK" into her chest with scissors. Her motive is unknown.

Her motive is unknown? I think we ALL know what her motive was...

Shades of Tawana Brawley. Now that the story has turned out this way, I don't expect we'll hear any more about it.

L.N. Smithee correctly predicted that this was a hoax.

These people commiting or reporting fake hate-crimes (and, yes, I realize "hate-crime" itself is a bogus concept) should recieve the same punishment as someone would for actually commiting that crime. This woman is guilty of stirring up hatred against whites.

He sure did, along with others.

I had this story pegged as BS from the start. Reminds me of the time Morton Downey Jr. claimed he'd been jumped by neo-nazis who scrawled a swastika on his face. Except the swastika was backwards cause the moron drew it in the mirror.

The KKK was backwards as well. She carved them while looking down on her chest.

Rumor has it that the police knew right away that it was a hoax -- she spelled "KKK" wrong.

What if I carve NAACP on my tummy?
To: agenda_express
Yep. It was the bit in her story about the "pillowcases or sheets" over her attackers' heads that had me wondering. That sounds like the typical thing everyone says about the KKK -- but an actual encounter with them would probably leave a different impression, of custom-made masks that don't look anything like pillowcases. And what are the chances they'd be in full dress, out on the prowl to hurt someone? More likely they'd use something more practical, like a ski-mask.
Also the part about the overnight abduction -- I hate to say it, but unless they had raped her or killed her, it wouldn't make any sense for them to keep her overnight.
To: agenda_express
This is an example which needs to be saved for future reference. Just the latest in a long line of hustlers looking for sympathy and a buck who will go any extreme ... in this case carving on themselves. I hear the dumba** wrote the letters so she could see them ala upside down -- rather than a 3rd party would have done. Maybe the judge will recommend someone carve STOOPID on her forehead.

Yeah, and those KKK guys always carry a pair of scissors around with them -- they must have just finished cutting the eye-holes in their white hoods.
