Yeah, I’m actually really wondering what this woman’s motivations were in stopping the guy? And then to lie to the cops about what he was doing? WTF?

I won’t speculate as to her mental state or her potential lack of sobriety, but it’s stuff like this that really makes me wonder if some people aren’t somehow living on a different plane of reality than the rest of us.

Could just be the simple explanation of someone who has a little bit of authority exercising that over someone else, in order to make themselves feel better… the whole “tinpot dictator” thing.

@abutilon I agree completely that mental illness ≠ wanting to hurt others. Even when someone’s illness does cause harm to others I don’t generally consider that wanting to hurt others.
One of the bpd people I know has lost her husband and her two teenage children (the children refuse ANY contact with her) and her job, and has been completely unable to land a new job.
She also is a strong Christian. She has been torturing herself trying to understand “why God hates” her. I can’t imagine a much sadder, lower feeling than believing in a “loving” god and believing he nevertheless hates me for some reason.

Yikes! I had no idea that was codified. Thank you, you malevolent yet inexplicably helpful pixy!

The lack of recognition of the evidence the video would show, though; as we saw, she clearly knew she was being recorded and still asserted a completely different version of reality than what was happening.
She said an obviously stationary vehicle ran her over.
IMO, there’s more internal fuckery at work there than just your usual authoritarian-asshole ‘sense of entitlement.’

Yeah, I mean did we learn nothing from Zimbardo? People overstepping their authority is fairly normal behaviour. In a world where we’re creating special classes out of people who wear uniforms, classes that some people think deserved special (protected) treatment, this can be expected.
Merely exhibiting a behaviour in an isolated incident (we have no pattern of her life here) or under specific circumstances is not mental illness.

Yes, a turnaround ought to be a gimme. I think even Mike Ehrmantraut would let that slide.
Or would he?

@lasermike026 I’m stealing a comment from the YouTube page that speaks to the video without violating rule #2 -
I can’t tell if this lady has taken too much of one drug or not enough of another.

You’re all mistaken; the guy did run her over, Mike can fix everything, and the guy couldn’t leave. And… the police were coming.
Oh, plus… jet skis suck.

Or that the dispatcher won’t notice it’s taking her longer to die than Desdemona in Othello?

Apparently, this is her schtick…
This is from 2017, Hampshire says a friend sent this to him.

Dye her hair orange and put her in a bad suit and you get the current POTUS.

dang, she has a whole thing worked out, scream bloody victim on anyone she wants to assert power over…pretty fucked up. sad thing is that if she’s been doing it for a while, it obviously has been working. this is somewhere between crying wolf and swatting. she doesn’t seem to grasp how cameras work though…one fatal flaw in her plan is that it is 2018, cameras are everywhere.
