You're greatly exaggerating his posts, I just read over the entire set once again. I don't myself find many of them particularly insightful, but he clearly said that her actions themselves are not to be defended, and he didn't seem to be the apologist he's made out to be. He mostly responded to note that things like "what a shitstain of a person" are needlessly hateful, and I personally agree that it's never useful to direct that kind of hatred at anyone, particularly not knowing their past (which cannot excuse, but may bring some sympathy, just like many abusers had an abusive upbringing). He was a bit corny in the end about "work it out over coffee", but you're going well beyond with accusing him of trying to make her look justified.

Man I already said this but I feel for the kids. The way they were awkwardly standing there...no kid deserves a parent like this 
Does this count as a back story or should we still hold off our judgement?
She went from not being racist (has a black cousin) to not being THAT BIG a racist.
Judging by her twitter and defense of "speaking her mind", this lady's on her way to proclaiming herself racist and proud.
Yeesh.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
You can ONLY change your name on Twitter but NOT your @. It's real.
He probably exchanged words with her after she confronted him about the car. She did mention something about him commenting about her parenting so that probably sent her off her rocker.
Looks like he started recording as soon she got on the phone. She might've threatened to call the police so he started recording as proof of her insanity.
Again, this is all just speculation.
What's so bad about it?

Oh god the halfhearted apology at the end now that she's getting blowback. Classy.
All @replies change when you change the handle if I'm not mistaken
Or someone had an account they just changed the name on?
Furthermore, not defending this woman in anyway, she's a racist, just pointing out the Twitter account most likely is fake (handle/namechanged)

the comment about the parenting started presumably after the n-word throwing.
Here's how it went down.
1. Dude was in his car and turned it on (she says revved, but that's not even mentioned in the original video, just "scared her kids").
2. She flips out, presumably calling him the n-word in reaction to her kid's frightened looks.
3. He starts tape-recording, either due to her flipping out or because of her threat to call the cops.
4. Then the youtube video happens.
It's funny that she keeps adding and subtracting to the story, because she already stated the main story to her husband, and that was recorded (seriously, if she wanted to make shit up, that was the time to do it!).

did she just say she stripped for alot of cops and that's why he won't get very far with any charges?
I heard that and was like...what?! lol
Well, that's the thing, and is the reason I made my original comment in this thread that got me in hot water with the WNY crew. I would wager that when most people - who are not from NY state - are asked to bring up a mental image when they think of New York, they probably think Empire State Building, Brooklyn Bridge, Central Park, World Trade Center/9-11, Rockefeller Center, Broadway (maybe Niagra Falls). That's all New York city (and even then it's specifically Manhattan), and they forget that there is a rest of the state, a rest of the state that is much more like anywhere else in America than some center of international culture.

From the same mind that gave you - "You know how many cops I've stripped for?!" and "I'm a great mother, you don't know shit!"
Don't forget one of her greatest hits, "We hate n-words!"
Vitriol for vitriol. Obviously I don't want her or her kids to get hurt, but damn dude, you say stupid shit like that and the people of today do not take kindly to it. Especially her recent Twitter post.
In New York State, the further North you go, the further South you get.

Well that escalated quickly. I don't feel bad for her though, I never do for people like her. I just can't stand racism in any form and don't believe it can be justified in any way. Though threatening her in twitter is pretty fucked up as well.
I'm a minority in the country I live in (not USA). And we had a batshit crazy racist mother and son living next to us and they kept harassing us pretty much everyday. I was around 8 years old during that time and the neighbors son was clearly in his 20's. I was coming home from school one day and he just yelled at me from the porch how one day he'll take me to the forest and no one will ever hear from me again. He had threaten to beat up my sister too. They also kept calling the cops on us in the middle of the night when we were all sleeping, saying they heard screaming from our house. They even trashed my dads car (I think with a baseball bat or a crowbar). Completely destroyed it. Cops never could pin it on them but it was pretty clear who's handiwork it was.
So racism usually gets my blood boiling no matter if it's towards blacks or whites. I hope she learns something from this, like not throwing racial slurs at people no matter how pissed you are.

Cheektowaga is Western New York. Not particularly far north.
As backward as this country keeps going im fully expecting either the Tea Party or a new fringe group to pop up and start embracing this new open movement of "Tolerate my intolerance because of freedom of speech" fuckwadery. There's plenty of politicians to lead them, they will just eventually get tired of having to apologize everytime they slip and say something that gets them in trouble and finally just admit "fuck it i'm racist/bigoted, but its my right" and these people will stand up and applaud them feeling empowered and vindicated. You can see it, its right there. You can almost see people just waiting in anticipation for it to happen.

To be honest, anything north of Westchester County is "upstate" in my mind.

The argument always circles back to "WHY CAN'T I SAY IT?!" at the end of the day.
Ultimately that's what bothers me. She's a sad individual, from what I can tell from limited information, but I have equally low respect for anyone who enjoys ganging up in mass for aggressive hatefulness against her. It won't help. And it only lowers yourself to where she is.
no she can't, stop making shit up
