    RIP Jessica Chambers :(

    Mysteriously, (not really), the race of the suspects has not been stated despite one rumored to be in custody already:
    Jessica Chambers, 19, was found burning near her car that was also engulfed in flames. She was flown to a hospital in Memphis but later died. Early autopsy results reveal that Jessica died from severe burns that covered 98 percent of her body.

    Her father, Ben Chambers, said investigators told him his daughter was set on fire.

    “When the fire department got there, she was walking down the road on fire,” he said. “Only part of her body that wasn’t burned was the bottom of her feet.”

    He continued as he held back tears, “They squirted lighter fluid down her throat and in her nose, and apparently they knocked her out. She had a big gash on top of her head.

    Could you not just have put '19 year old woman' in the thread title? Seems like you're trying your hardest to make it about race. RIP anyway, hopefully it's true that they have one of the suspects detained already.

    Unless this was a race related murder why would you mention the woman's race or the race of her attackers? It's like you're trying to make a racial issue out of an otherwise horrible murder.

    Probably trying to create a correlation to the medias emphatic use of race as the motive for recent high profile deaths of black people.

    That is horrific, really hope they catch whoever is responsible for this

    If she was a black girl and the suspects were white believe me we'd f*cking hear about it!:mad:

    The news stations seem to be chomping at the bit on this one. White woman dead. Unknown suspects. *Raises eyebrow suggestively*

    Just waiting for cartman to come on screen shouting "Race War!"

    That article also mentions she was in the process of leaving her abusive boyfriend - who happens to be black - maybe thats a more plausible explanation than black men targeting white women.

    What an absolute horrific way to die. Sometimes there's nothing humane about humans.

    Am I the only one observing the fact that someone just tried to turn the burning to death of a young woman into a race spectacle for after hours drama and everyone else sees it as a minor grievance? I'm aware this is the internet but leave behind the media sensationalism, personal agendas and give empathy a chance.

    Very unrelated beyond "look what a backwards old dump Mississippi is!", I see it's the only state which has the confederate flag on it.

    Bit more googling found me that Georgia decided to put the confederate flag on their state flag in 1956, right near the start of the civil rights movement. Some critics (obviously) thought this was some kind of racist protest but it still managed to stick around until 2001, when they somehow managed to replace it with the ugliest flag I've ever seen

    Erhm, we just have heard about it, in this thread on After Hours, that you've commented on, started by the poster Amazing Fun who is always here to remind us about the latest bad thing a black person did to a white person in the US.

    Horrible story. Truly.

    And horrible, disgusting journalism from that website, which openly admits to sourcing its info from social media and has already decided it was a premeditated killing worthy of the death penalty.

    It's a pity people couldn't do that in the Martin, Ferguson and Garner cases too.

    Between hearts being ripped out and people being set on fire to their deaths, there's so much **** on the news and it's only just the tip of it. Oh what a ****ed up world.

    Eh what the hell OP. Did you log into your boards account to post this by mistake instead of logging into stormfront or something?


    Some scumbags killed a girl. In a horrible horrible way. That's the story.

    But there is a massive smell of racism from the way your putting it.

    Shame on you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,819 ✭✭✭howamidifferent


    I'm absolutely sickened to think that one human being could do that to another.
    Race/Skin colour aside, it's one of the most depraved horrible things I've ever read. As a parent to several young girls my blood ran cold reading that. :(

    This world really does host some examples of evil that even hollywood couldnt dream up. My heart goes out to that poor girl and her family and friends.:( RIP

    Amazingfun along with a few others are trying their best to turn boards.ie into stormfront.

    After all the talk and progress made on tackling the misogyny that was creeping into After Hours it might not be a bad idea to have a discussion about a certain element of posters who seem determined to turn After Hours into a forum highlighting all things race related.

    How racist OP. You clearly want to blame african americans for this even though it was most likely not done by an african american. Did you know most serial killers are white? African Americans are always blamed first.

    Ferguson and Trayvon's news coverage has made a lot of people wonder why MSM is pushing all this race stuff, where the innocent people get slated for self defense cause of the race of the person they where defending themselves from.
