Pregnant women runs over dirt-bag who stole her purse and gets charged.

If it was a black man, she's totally screwed.

I'll just post this here because it's awesome!

Unfortunately the black hero who ran over the thug was charged as well...

Jury nullification.

Fail to see how shes a hero. Just cause some crackhead is a scumbag doesn't mean you drive your car over them. Imo that is rash thinking that accomplishes nothing. The world would be better off if stuff like this werent even news. Glorify people like this lady and next thing you know people are looking for vigilante justice anywhere they can

Here is the video of the pregnant woman running over the thief. Warning, it's graphic.

I'm likin' both those videos. Both dirtbags got what they deserved.

She didn't run him over because he's a crackhead, she ran him over because he committed a violent felony. Obviously, what she did is technically illegal, but sometimes consequences can be a bitch...

Let's keep in mind that she's a Wal-Mart shopper, so it's not like she's a great person herself. That makes this a win-win situation. Criminal gets run over. Poor person goes to prison.

It's simple.

Adhere to the laws of the society you live in, or leave the society.

If you choose not to leave the society, then be prepared to deal with the consequences of breaking said society's laws whatever they may be.

Just because someone steals your purse doesn't mean you can run over them with a vehicle. The only way that would be remotely justified would be is if the suspect was armed and the woman felt that his escape would present an imminent danger of death to others in the area. Good luck with that. Only cops can finagle that in a court of law, and even they don't do it all the time. Justification (of use of force) is a very tricky thing, whether you are making a split second decision to pull the trigger in her case run someone over, or if you are a judge/juror. She should be charged. Let a court decide if her actions were truly warranted.

I picture this being screamed at Rosa Parks.

If everyone were just allowed to mete out whatever punishment they felt was due, that would be chaos.

She's not a hero, but the "jury nullification" post got it right. Good luck finding 12 people who are going to give a flying f$%# about the guy that got run over.

Oh good lord you're an absolute moron bringing up Rosa Parks as a response to what that guy wrote.

She will clearly get off.

1. Mostly women jury. But you only need one. Hopefully one is pregnant or has a new born.

2. She will testify she feared for her life and the life of her unborn baby.

3. Multiple doctors will testify that hormones of pregnant women lead to irrational decisions. It's not her fault.

4. She is found not guilty or a hung jury.

My guess is charges are dropped or comes to a plea agreement where she is given probation.

Ashville NC is a liberal meca, poor guy has a disease and is entitled to money he doesn't work for. If this had happened in TX she would have been given a heroes welcome.

Agree that she gets a nominal slap on the wrist--bet its a diversion program that keeps it off her record if she's a good girl for a year or so...but...

I bet within 3 years she's back in the news. Either for drugs or child neglect and the baby she's carrying now gets taken from her by child services.

You're correct and the victim will be dead from an OD. Remember this all happened in a Walmart parking lot.

just because it's illegal doesn't mean it's wrong
