yeah... that is really sad. http://www.columbian.com/news/2010/sep/16/vancouver-police-say-acid-attack-hoax-source-says/
I did feel like a dick posting that it seemed self inflicted just a few days after it happened but it just sort of seemed like it was. She really needs some help and now I'm sure she will get it.
WTF Award Winner! Why would someone do this exactly? To incite racial tension? It makes very little sense.
Um, OK. Anyhow, I was skeptical when she was laughing on the news about it, and saying that "at least I'm not blind".
Yes, she did it to incite racial tension, since she is a "minority" as well. Great job, Sherlock! What a great plan. Scar yourself for live with acid in order to start some fictional race war!
I didn't. Did it have anything to do with Kevin Love? Anyhow, Sug's post was serious, so I probably took yours as it was not meant to be.
No. Nothing to do with Love. My point was there is no black people in Vancouver, which made me skeptical.
Possibility: A girl has to be hospitalized because she has chemical burns on her face, which was the result of doing something illegal (like tinkering in a meth lab). The doctors have to know how it happened, so she makes up a story to cover her ass, "A stranger did this!" She's apparently not very smart and gets found out, and now she has to make up another story to cover her ass, "I did it on purpose!" and claims mental instability. I'm not saying that's necessarily it, but it's hard for me to believe someone would put a chemical burn on their own face on purpose. I think she was probably doing something illegal.
It happened in broad daylight at a Vancouver park. Highly unlikely a meth lab exploded in her face and she drove to the park and said someone threw acid in her face.
Then I guess they'll find evidence (container or something) around the park, being self inflicted. Public and daylight didn't produce any witnesses.
