A woman attempted to burn down Martin Luther King Jr.’s birth home, arriving with a gas canister and dousing the historic property in fuel Thursday.
Video from the brazen attempt shows a woman dressed in all black freely pouring gasoline on the home’s front porch, windows, and bushes around 5:45 p.m., WSB-TV reported.
Two tourists from Utah viewing the home were able to intervene to stop the suspect, police said.
One witness recalled the suspect began to grow irritated after she was having trouble spreading the fuel around the property, according to FOX 5 Atlanta.

I don't recall the face of the criminal being blurred in other crimes with live video evidence.
Is it because of the race of the perp? How many times have we watched the "racist" burning of a black church turn out to be done by a black person?

Too bad, it would have been a fine payback for all of the Walgreens and Wendy's that the golden children have torched in the past few years.

Her face was clearly visible in the second photo in the article. She appears to be Scandanavian, obviously a white supremacist! /s off

Yes #4, she may have been Amish. But I believe this was meant to be another hoax stoking black rage much like what Jussie Smollett tried to do to stir up controversy and get "da folks" out on the street.

I'm surprised she wasn't described as a "youth".

I admit my first thought was the perp was a deranged white person, but I was wrong. Posters are correct - another attempted Jessie Smollett hoax.

Oh, mercy me. Does anybody else thinks this was staged? Broad daylight, no struggle by the perp, really?
It gets curiouser and curiouser. Why is the very simple house remodel going to take till 2025? Is there a backstory about this?

Clearly a racist, white supremacy adjacent, misogynistic, wyte wing extremist...prolly a Trump supporter.
I do wonder what their determination at birth was...where do they fit in the gender spectrum, This story appears to "assume" their gender..
Are the all black clothes because they are a Ninja? Or Antifa? Or an avant guarde Artiste?
Were they protesting climate change by pouring fossil fuels on this structure? Were they going to send it up in hot smoke to save clean air?
Would the gathered good Samaritans talking nicely, politely and placatingly towards the "suspected/alleged" perp have had the same tone/energy if they were a different epidermal hue? If the Cops were?

The only use of the word "black" in the story is that she was dressed in all black. She's obviously a mental case. Which means no time in the slammer. Too bad there are no nut houses to confine her.

The most disappointed people are the so-called ''media.'' Can't blame one of those extremist, rightwing, ultra MAGA racists. Therefore, this attempted arson by a racist black woman will be buried by them. It's what they do.

Izzit a Local resident? Or did they come from "Away" recently...did they arrive just to do this? Or were they drawn to the Peach City by other attractions?

It looks like Lekeisha isn't a fan of "judge my children by the content of their character, not the color of their skin".
She almost certainly wants special treatment because of her skin color, and judging by her actions....not much content of any value in that character.
Like I have said many times, these days, all the racist haters are black folks.

I guess she took the song Burning Down The House by The Talking Heads literally.

She looks suspiciously like one of the black actresses appearing in all of the commercials seen on the idiot box these days which is meant to reassure us that they are just like the rest of us law abiding citizen. If an alien from another planet came here and was forced to watch nothing but television commercials it would naturally assume that black Americans are in the majority in this country instead of actually only comprising 11% if the population and commit the majority of crimes.
They are useful idiots on the communist death democrat slave plantations.
Burn, Baby, Burn.

#9, the reason the remodel will take until 2025 is because the bids only went out to economically disadvantaged contractors. Hard for them to get enough workers to show up daily for the work. But I feel sorry for the suspect. This won’t look good on her resume to medical school.

The title should read "Black Woman." It was a racially motivated false flag attempt, and that should be out front in the first lines of any articles on this incident.

Nutcase belongs under the jail. It was incitement, not just a structure.

Next she will be one of Biden's choices for a judgeship or head of an agency.

And Obama would come out from under his rock and say "If I had another daughter she would be just like this young strong beautiful woman."
