[quote]NEW ORLEANS — A 20-year-old black woman said she was set on fire by three men who wrote the initials KKK and a racial slur on her car in northeastern Louisiana, police said Monday.
Officers found Sharmeka Moffitt with burns on more than half of her body when they responded to her emergency call Sunday night, said Louisiana State Police spokeswoman Lt. Julie Lewis.
The FBI is investigating the attack as a possible hate crime, but no arrests had been made as of late Monday, Lewis said. She said Moffitt was in critical condition at a hospital and that some of her injuries were third-degree burns.
She is expected to have surgery Tuesday.
Moffitt told police the men doused her in a flammable liquid and set her on fire at a park in Winnsboro, a town in Franklin Parish. Lewis said she extinguished the fire using water from a spigot before a police officer arrived.
Officers found the letters KKK — an apparent reference to the white supremacist Ku Klux Klan — and a racial slur smeared in a paste-like substance on the hood of her car, Lewis said.
On the emergency call, Moffitt described her attackers as three men wearing white hoods or hats, Lewis said. She later told a Winnsboro Police officer who responded to the call that the men were wearing white hoodies. She was unable to say what race her attackers were.
The officer found no suspects or vehicles at Civitan Park where the attack allegedly happened, and the park has no surveillance cameras, Lewis said. She said the state crime lab was analyzing several pieces of evidence.
Franklin Sheriff Kevin Cobb called it "a horrific event" and said authorities would "follow the facts and seek justice."

Why the fuck would you do this? What tells someone to just go out and set someone on fire?
Wow, what the fuck.
This is just disgusting.
Hang the people responsible for this.. by their testicles.
Evil bastards.
What a bunch of monsters. I truly hope that they do not get away with this.

''What tells someone to just go out and set someone on fire?'' the bible or any of it's multi-cultural counterparts.

I don't think there's a passage that says "burn black people" in the bible.
Although I wouldn't really be surprised if there was.
That book has some crazy shit in it.

The old testament is like reading a book called "torture, racism, bloodshed and dehumanizing the opposite sex : how to do it"

Even the WBC condemns racism, (though the KKK condemns the WBC too so lol).

Ain't the first time something like this has happened here, and it certainly won't be the last time.
Sad fact of life here.

Do we really have to do this in every single thread? The story has nothing to do with religion.
It's getting as bad as r/atheism in here.
Goes to show that Louisiana is still one of the most racist states in the US, and will continue to be ~~4ever~~
