Flabbergasted

  • Why isn't Drew Peterson in jail? Given that Peterson has been named a suspect in the disappearance of his wife, Stacy Peterson, why is he still walking around enjoying his notoriety?
Um, a presumption of innocence? A lack of evidence with which to charge him for the crime? Maybe not actually committing any crime in the meantime? Any of these things ringing a bell in that empty head Mopey?
  • ...I've never reported on a case in which someone deemed a suspect is free to come and go as he or she pleases. Unless that person has fled, usually the police find a way to get the person off the street.
Well, that speaks more to your inadequacies as a reporter than any failing on the part of the legal process. We have this thing called a Constitution, Mopey. And police have to follow it. We can't just throw it out the window on a whim, though you'd like to.
  • I find that ironic, when comparing Peterson's case with the recent case of another man whose name has been linked with the disappearance and homicide of another Chicago area woman.
Irony is incongruity between what might be expected and what actually occurs. Let's see what you find ironic in this situation (we'll summarize here):
  • Potts had a criminal background
  • escaped FBI custody
  • stopped for a malfunctioning taillight
  • arrested/charged with misdemeanor battery
  • arrested for violating an order of protection when he sent a fax to the child's mother
  • resisted arrest and "struck a sheriff's deputy with his elbow"
  • violated a different order of protection filed by his estranged wife
  • missed court (because he was in jail) so the judge issued a no-bond warrant for Potts
  • arrested by Maywood Police after posting $50,000 bail in DuPage County
So because Drew Peterson was a member of the community with no criminal history (but a rather creepy social life), he should be treated the same as some jagoff who...
  • can't maintain a properly working automobile as required by state law;
  • threatens and hits people;
  • can't read or comprehend what "no contact" means in a court order not once, but TWICE;
  • batters the police IN A COURTROOM during his hearing;
  • can't behave between court dates (violation of bail bond restrictions).
It must be truly painful to go through life with as many self inflicted blind spots as Mope-rah seems to do. Either that or the lobotomy they performed to sever all the logic circuits in her head got most of the pain receptors, too.

The SunTimes will just sit back and laugh. See, the SunTimes is just interested in the bottom line. One of the drawbacks to a free market media. The media is driven by prophet and if lying or inciting a people sells more papers, then great. I wish there was some sort of self policing amongst the reporters for telling lies. Some sort of board they would have to go up to and prove their allegations or lose their 'reporting' license. Definitely not government controlled, but some self governing body. Oh well, this is what we have.

The only reason this individual exists as a columnist is because she sells newspapers. The more comments and letters about her that she generates, the more valuable she is to her employers.

While most of the posts are interesting to say the least, they are only helping her cause to stay gainfully employed. Every time you buy a Sun-Times or go to their web site and click on her column, you are helping to justify her existence.

Don't worry--the bosses at the Sun-Times read this blog every day. They use it to get leads to stories (i.e. F/1 P.O. in 002--not enough non-felon black men to have relationships with).

They will keep Mope-rah around because:

She sells newspapers. I'm as guilty of this as the next guy. We buy the paper because we need someone to hate.

Any time she will find two people, one white and one black, where there is any hint of different treatment, regardless of the circumstances, she will pounce on it and people will read about it.

let's be fair and equal when handing out verdict's by the media and make believe reverends. This year Don Imus was fired and forced/strong armed by the media and "make believe reverends" forced to apologize on air/tv for his comments. Why don't we call for Mope-rah/ Mary(i had a bad hair day) mithcell to be fired by the scum times. Then she should be forced to apologize to the citizens of chicago/ cook county and Illinois for her racist's comments during her interview with Patrick elwood. She demanded that the new superintendent should be black and nothing else would do.. Stop patronizing the sun times, write to the business that advertise in that racist paper.. Let the business know how you and your family and friends will not patronize their business as long as they advertise in the scum times. Lets stick it to them just like they stick it to us.

In my email i finished by saying, "send my love to your racist co-worker mary mitchell". He responds and says mary is not a racist and i shouldnt suggest such a thing. Ha these people are nothing but complete morons. If that bitch isnt racist then NO ONE IS! Oh and a BIG THANK YOU TO PATRICK ELWOOD, a born and raised south sider who made that bitch look like a complete ignorant idiot in his interview with her. Showed her to be the racist BITCH she is.

Blacks Blacks Blacks Blacks Blacks!!!!

What the fuck is the big deal. An Offender is an Offender. There are just a lot more black ones. A LOT MORE reality is what reality is. She defends out of pure shame for them and feeling shame that she is the same color as them. Thats it. with hopes that she will somehow manipulate the statistics enough to even the offender playing field she knows it is impossible. The oly thing possible for her is to BLAME BLAME BLAME. when you spend a career assigning blame for black on black crime, you try and twist it enough so black on black crime is the white people's fault.

Its ridiculous but all of our feathers are ruffled because this useless, wannabe journalist is living in a fantasy land where she believes the whites compel blacks to deal drugs, and kill each other, and rob each other and burglarize each other.

I say don't assign blame...take the blame and put it where it belongs. in the arms of a parent who doesn't give a shit about where their child is, or a parent that shows no discipline at home and refuses to work because they know that handouts will always be there.

I do not like Mary Mitchell or the propaganda she is feeding the liberal public.

Arrest him for what? What crime has he committed that could be proven in court right now? When someone is arrested for a crime it is because there is sufficient evidence that he/she committed the crime. You cant arrest someone and hold them indefinitely until proof can be found.
If he were arrested today for her murder, his rights include a speedy trial. No evidence means not guilty. Then if her body turns up guess what, he cant be tried for the same crime twice. This is all common sense and basic law that most people know just from watching the occasional law and order or matlock. Trying to make this racial is just assinine.

The difference:

Drew Peterson is a white man.

Potts is a black man. Mr. Potts' behavior is illustrative of most black men and so it shouldn't be held against him. It costs money to keep your car running right. It takes self-discipline to behave. Most black men have felony records. The bar is set lower for black men and so should not factor in whatsoever.

At least that's what I hear everytime a black big mouth comments on racism.

While I am at it. It occurred to me today...this fabricated "thing" between father and son Jackson...Sr says that the democratic candidates don't do enough to understand African-American issues. I thought, and this may be a novel idea, that if you expect others to "understand" your issues, than you had better be able to either listen to criticism about what YOU are doing wrong that contributes to your problems OR you must openly and honestly take responsibility for what needs to be adjusted in your own little universe before you ask others to step in and help you. Oh, wait a minute...that ain't gonna happen because blacks don't air their dirty laundry outside "the community" do they?

In that case, fuck you. Until you clean up your own house, don't ask me to "understand" shit.

That is all.

Rice guy here. I saw your link to Elwood and Moperah. I have to say, Elwood didn't back down, and I was happy he got so emotional. You can tell he thinks she's a moron and that he knows coppers have to deal with a whole lot of crap from the likes of people like her. Unfortunately, he lost the argument when he said that white kids were dying in Chicago's streets too. It was a moment of emotion for him, and he let emotions dictate what he said, and it wasn't fact. White kids aren't dying in the streets. Black kids are. So why are they dying in the streets? Why are Hispanics dying in the streets? That was the question he could have posed that would have squared his argument and debunked that stupid bitch's whole shtick. Whatever the case, he didn't back down. And I'm proud to be a Crusader alum with him, even if he's actually from Oak Lawn (lives in Evergreen now, from what I hear). And no, we didn't have a Drama Club. We had plenty of art fags and theater dorks, some of whom are pretty famous. Me, I'm just a non-merited hack, waiting for a break, and until that break comes, pray that I don't catch one in the eyes from the likes of one of Moperahs n'eer-do-well sons, brothers, uncles, et al.

Stay safe out there brothers. Stay safe.

Great response as I posted along the same lines on the findstacypeterson website. I was met with quite a few negative comments as I suspected I would. Their currently isn't any evidence {that we are aware of} to arrest Drew Peterson. I'm sure theirs detectives that read the board, and i'm sure most would agree most presented evidence is circumstantial {that we know of}. Stacy Peterson's family is hindering this investigation. Every little tidbit, whether it be a suspicion or what someone may have seen etc., is being leaked to the press. I'd bet the State Police Investigators are ready to find enough tape to keep them quiet. My post there was something along the line of don't just look at Drew and close your mind to other possibilities...they wouldn't even hear of it.
