Florida Racist Drives Car Into Black Biker

July 17th, 2008

He allegedly was mad that an African American had slept with his wife

Racism
A Florida man targeting African Americans slammed his car into a 25-year-old Black woman who was riding her bike, according to police. Police said that Thomas Cosby, 56, drove his automobile into Nekedia Cato, and in the process destroyed a nearby porch and hit a tree before causing her to roll over three times, according to NBC affiliate WESH Channel 2. “He just hit me because I was Black,” Cato, who was riding her bike home from the store, told the television station. “I actually saw him coming toward me. I tried to move my bike as fast as I [could], but it wasn’t quick enough. He came straight for me.” After Cosby crashed, police said, he got out of his car and yelled the “N”-word and a slew of racist remarks, including how he wanted to kill Black people, WESH reports. “He was screaming out he had to kill all Black people because one slept with his wife,” said Cato, who suffered several injuries, broken bones and a broken leg so severe doctors inserted a metal rod into her leg. “If he could target me just because of the color of my skin, he could target anybody else. “I’m kind of scared walking down the street because I don’t know if people hate me.” Authorities say she could spend several weeks in the hospital. Cosby is facing hate-crime charges for alleged aggravated battery and simple battery.

This is a sign that African American Communities need to start working together in this world. This should curve BLACK on BLACK Crime, and began a healing among our race. White people don’t have to try and kill us, because we are doing enough of that. The JUSTICE system is not blind when it comes to putting our African Americans in jail; however it’s blind when it comes to the White Race. I don’t agree with what this man did, because based on the report he should have been charged with Attempted Murder, Assault with A Deadly Weapon (CAR), Hate Crime, Reckless Driving, and Obstruction of Government Operations. His charges should be upgraded, and they should stick. He had time to think about what he was about to do before he actually committed the crime. So what mental evaluation do they have to Justify what he did? This man was not insane; he was Sane when he committed it. African American living in Florida it’s time for you all to come together, because there are laws out there for Hate Crimes, and Racism. Don’t just sit there and let those people do that, because it’s not right. Boycott and March for True Justice.

Those charges are unacceptable, and everyone should agree with it whether if you are a racists or not. Attempted murder should be the charge, nothing more nothing less. Whether if he said his intentions were to kill this woman or not, he did literally try to kill her. We all as a people need to come together as one and fight against everything that is going on in OUR world. GAS IS TOO DA*M HIGH TO BE RUNNING OVER PEOPLE WITH YOUR CARS!!!!!LOL. Seriously though, this was wrong. I feel so sorry for CATOS. I wonder did she have any kids, and how we they inconvienced in this, or the family. This is something we all should think about! Whenever things are done to us in the wrong, whether if they are family or not, we are all affected by this. And they love to come back and say black people are ruthless, walking criminals who do not care about life. Now don’t get me wrong there are some out there that does not give a flying flip about life and there are those that have a reason to live for. Half of the crimes that black people commit are a retaliation of what they have been through in life. A lot of them feel that selling drugs is the easy way out because the white man will not give them a job. A lot of them rob and steal to take care of their families. All of this is wrong, but we have to survive just like they do. ************PEOPLE TIMES ARE NOT GOING TO GET ANY BETTER. PEOPLE ARE GOING TO START COMMITTING CRIMES JUST BE PUT IN JAIL. THE ECONOMY IS GOING TO CRASH. IF IT HAS ALREADY WE WOULD NOT KNOW BECAUSE WE HAVE A PRESIDENT THAT IS A HABITUAL LIAR!!!!******START SAVING YOUR MONEY. THIS WORLD IS NOT GOING TO GET ANY BETTER UNTIL EVERYONE WAKES UP AND REALIZE WHO IS IN CONTROL.

WTF!!!?



Sunshine Said on

He should be trying to kill what is inside of him. The African American who slept with his wife and all blacks aren’t his problem. He needs to deal with his own hidden issues. Because if he could kill us all he still would have himself to deal with. See black people this is why we have to love ourselves and each other more. Its bad enough other races are against us, we don’t need to be against ourselves.
Blessings, Love and Peace

Man he should do long time for that



Keke Said on

Apparently this man was not doing something right in the bed, his wife crossed over and gotten it done right by a black man.



D Said on

In some states a “Hate Crime” brings tougher sentencing, but I agree…Attempted Homicide charges should be added to the list of charges I’m sure he’s been charged with. The worse thing about this is I’m sure this nut case doesn’t have the money to satisfy the civil lawsuit Ms Cato is certain to file against him and she’ll be out luck as far as collecting any judgement given to her. Her best bet is to hope he was insured and she can collect something from that.



LADIIE LAYLA Said on

W.O.W SO WHEN DID IT BECOME SLAVERY AGAIN PLEASE TELL ME…
HE DOESN’T HAVE THE RIGHT TO TAKE THINGS OUT ON SOMEONE WHO DIDN’T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE SITUATION. I MEAN IF MY MAN CHEATED ON ME WITH A WHITE WOMAN I HAVE THE RIGHT TO RUN OVER A WHITE MAN?? I WANT TO SEE HOW THE JUDGE WILL HANDLE THIS ONE… LETS SEE IF JUSTICE WILL BE SERVED CORRECTLY…
