SPRINGFIELD, Ohio —The woman behind an early Facebook post spreading a harmful and baseless claim about Haitian immigrants eating local pets that helped thrust a small Ohio city into the national spotlight says she had no firsthand knowledge of any such incident and is now filled with regret and fear as a result of the ensuing fallout.
“It just exploded into something I didn’t mean to happen,” Erika Lee, a Springfield resident, told NBC News on Friday.
Lee recently posted on Facebook about a neighbor’s cat that went missing, adding that the neighbor told Lee she thought the cat was the victim of an attack by her Haitian neighbors.
I’d rather not explain legal law.
The main gist is that intention is important.
Also, besides the last few years (i think because of immigration), racism was almost non existent, and most people only talked shit behind closed doors, but didn’t even really mean it. Police for example are more into profiling than racism. And the fact that racism is not allowed, also makes it very taboo to be racist.
And also a very weird “every country allows extremists” comment. I’ll just point it out and not go into it any further.
Bro, you haven’t even made a fucking point. Get out of here with this fucking bullshit. You obviously can’t explain much of anything outside of how you “feel” about these things. You showed your age with the “racism was non-existent”, obviously haven’t been around for too long. Never used the word extremist, but honestly it’s not bad. Yeah, every country has them.
Do me a favor, and try to only reply to comments where you actually have a fucking point. You’re gumming up the works for the people looking to have actual discussions.
Fuck you.
What the hell are you even talking about? You ask questions and I answer them. Your intentions are fucking selfish and negative. Get the fuck out of here yourself you miserable asshole.
Go do your own resource for the stuff I said. I don’t have to prove shit.
Ignorant Americunt
And there it is! Glad we could boil it down to your superiority over AmErIcA. Fucking nationalists.
Glad to see the rest of the world is just as fucking stupid as the majority of this country.
You challenged my response, I questioned your stupid premise and asked for actual fact, you couldn’t provide (probably due to your laziness, you’d probably fit in better here than you’d like to believe…) a single point of argument except your feelings. Learn what debate and conversation actually resemble, or don’t, you’ll fit right in with the masses.
Fuck off and get back to class, yah twat.
