Default Acid attacker: 'Hey pretty girl, do you want to drink this?

VANCOUVER, Wash. — A 28-year-old woman severely burned when a stranger threw an acid-like liquid in her face was listed in serious condition in a Oregon hospital.

Bethany Storro, of Vancouver, Wash., was getting something out of her car in downtown Vancouver when the attack happened Monday evening, her mother Nancy Neuwelt told The Oregonian.

Neuwelt said a young woman walked up to her daughter, said: "Hey pretty girl, do you want to drink this?" and tossed a cup of liquid in Storro's face.

"I’m a nice girl and I don’t know why this happened," Storro, 28, said Tuesday in her hospital room in the Oregon Burn Center at Legacy Emanuel Medical Center in Portland, The Columbian newspaper reported.
Storro said the pain was the most excruciating she had ever experienced, her mother told The Columbian.

"It was burning through her shirt. She took off her shirt and she was trying to wipe her face," Neuwelt said, according to the newspaper.

I noticed in the comments in one of the stories that it was a allegedly a black woman who did this, and of course the victim was white. They are saying that if it was the other way around, the outcry would be greater because it would be considered "racially motivated".

I don't know if I agree, but I find it interesting that those lines are being drawn.

Apparently the woman now admits that she threw acid IN HER OWN face, then lied about it...! I think I speak for everyone when I say: WTF?
