From the accounts I read, three Black women were having a typical ghetto argument at work. It wasn't the first time. The shooter was paranoid that the other two were talking about her behind her back and spraying things on her, which they probably were.
So, Yvonne got her gun and killed the other two after she told them that she would "take them out" during one of their heated arguments. As everyone knows, homicide is a very typical and real threat that Blacks often make and carry out.
Whether it is Latrell Sprewell choking PJ Carlesimo and threatening to kill him, or Serena William rabidly ranting and raving at a line judge and threatening to kill her, or Omar Thornton snapping and murdering his fellow employees after he was caught stealing, or Yvonne Hiller threatening to murder the people who were screwing with her, the theme is the same. Blacks are easily angered and provoked. When they are, lives are placed in grave danger.
It is a well-known fact that when someone screws with a Black person, one of their common responses is to get a gun and murder the perceived offender(s). That's why they are nine times more likely to murder someone than a White person.
Regarding the two victims, I strongly doubt that they were innocent little angels, TideGlider. They were probably relentlessly screwing with Yvonne in some childish, ghetto way. Obviously, that is not a reason to murder someone in the White community, but who are we to judge the intra-community standards of the Black community? Diversity is a good thing and it enriches all of our lives, remember? Why fight it? Respect and celebrate their different ways. -g- |
