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-

Explain to me how it is an intellectual issue to mock shooting victims who were killed at work because they were black? I never said it was, and I didn't post that comment... people can say what they want, sometimes it may not appear proper, but free speech means the freedom to say what you want no matter how offensive it might be to someone else... It appears that you are the one walking on egg shells to preserve the integrity of your thread by not facing the facts. Respectfully, I think you're confused... if you have a problem with a poster, then please take it up with them, not with me... why are you now lodging charges at me that I'm "walking on egg shells." On the contrary, I really don't give a rat's ass about political correctness, not do I care what someone might post no matter how offensive or obnoxious it might be to someone else, this is an open forum, everyone is grown up and can fend for them selves, I'm not anyone's mother or father here... egg shells mean nothing to me... If your mother and wife got shot at work would you feel they deserved to be talked about as if they were crack whores fighting over a pipe? That's an irrelevant question, I never made such a comment... what do you want to do, provoke a fight here? What kind of absurd question is that? So if you want to discuss the issue, why don't you go back to the original posts, not the back peddling affirmative action discussion. You keep calling it back peddling, but affirmative action is where the conversation began, so kindly do not attack me and make accusations to me or about me when I had nothing to do with comments that bother you... you're a big boy, speak for yourself and discuss the issue with the poster who provoked you, leave me out of your problem... okay? Thanks... GZ
