Once Again, “A Big Black Man”

20 year old Texan, Ashley Todd has admitted to making up the story she told to Pittsburgh police stating that a big, black man attacked and robbed her at knife point at an ATM in Pittsburgh’s East End.  Todd also told police that the angry, black manmay have been infuriated over the John McCain sticker which was on her car. Todd reported to police that she was also sexually assaulted and that the attacker carved a “B” into her face (allegedly in representation of Barack Obama) and made threats to her for being a McCain supporter. Todd who refused medical attention after the assault has come forth and stated that she made up the entire story and admits to having a history of mental problems.

Ashley Todd has been charged with filing a false report.

Again…the big, black man did it!

I am greatly disgusted by these false allegations, but I am in no way surprised. Why is it that there is always some big, black, angry man out to get some innocent, hard working white woman. It is as if they come out with these stories and just the words, big black man should be enough to get the police to take action, to get the community in an uproar and for justice to be quickly served.

Why is the assailant always a big, black guy or as Ashley Todd stated; An African American male, 6′4 or taller, medium build with short dark hair? Why is he always the usual suspect when some mentally unstable white woman decides to do something stupid and then call the police?

Why does this “innocent victim” always have a history of mental problems once the truth has come forth? Why is it that after she has killed her children (Susan Smith 1994) or attacked herself and carved the letter B into her own face (Ashley Todd 2008) now she fingers a black man (who is always, big, black and angry) as the culprit. And lastly, why is it the story so believable to so many people just because the accused attacker is a big, black man?

I smelled a rat the moment I read the story on CNN. Maybe it was the fact that she refused medical treatment after having her face carved with a dull knife and after being sexually assaulted or maybe it was the distinct description of an African American man, 6′4 or taller, medium build with short dark hair that made me think twice about this story.

Again…the big, black guy was accused, the people believed…and in the end it was a lie.

I am so damn sick of hearing this same story over and over again. Same story, different day….
