Not sure if I buy this: A lady who hasn’t logged on to check her WiLife webcam in three months does because of a “sixth sense,” and lo, there are two gentlemen burglarising her home.
It’s been all over the news, and it sure seems like a fun story to the woman, adding to my scrunched-nose look of disbelief. To top it off, the lady goes on national TV and makes a point of identifying the race of the men involved. It’s a little weird, especially because it’s two white people—including the “victim”—giggling while discussing the ordeal. She actually says, “The funniest is when the burglars realised that they were surrounded by the police, and they’re trying to figure out, how can they get out of the house.”
OK, whatever, maybe the dudes had it coming, and maybe it is funny. You take a look at the embedded CBS News video, and if you have a sense that this is all on the up-and-up, and that justice is being served, then say so. [CBS]

Sunday, April 12, 2009 at 9:52 PMYou guys there are a bloody laugh. The problem is you’re all so caught up in racism you don’t know racist from non racist.
Would you have preffered she said a coloured man? (sorry for the u in colored but I find the word racist spelled without a u) Odd because I see no color in them. Maybe if she said a brown skinned man if would be okay? Maybe an african american?
Thank God I still live in a country where I can order a black or white coffee and speak to a “black” man without having to think of each other as racist. People are offended because they want to be. No black or white person gives a flying F… here in Australia because no one gives a shit whether you are white, black, asian, wog, skip, or whatever else. We’ve learned to get over that crap and see the person not try to find reason why the word is used. Not that we don’t have racist people here but if I called someone a Skip in a bad way down here, europeans (wogs) and Aussies (skips) would be at my throat and the same goes for Aussies doing it to us. Learn to live ouside your own little circles and maybe you’ll see just how laughable all this really is.
That being said she did make one mistake. There were two black men in her home not one!
