14. This looks like a family squabble that got way out of hand.

First of all, her parents should not be ugly racists; there's no excuse for that. The young woman was wrong, however, for putting her parent's info on Facebook. If she hadn't done that, I doubt the police would have gotten involved.

The parents make the remark that they aren't going to help her anymore and they take her car away. They probably paid for the car, but that doesn't give them the right to go to 'her' house and assault her. They should be arrested for that.

As other people have noted in this thread, you shouldn't characterize everybody in Mississippi by the actions of one family and a rural sheriff's dept. You'll find this sort of thing going on just about anywhere in America these days.
