Buried deep in the article: “The confrontation reportedly began after Hendrix claimed the child took a toy from her son’s diaper bag.”
So it looks like there are no clean hands here. The 5-year-old stole something. His parents were not supervising him properly. And an upset Hendrix picked an unwise choice of words.
Best to just separate everyone and move on. But that can only happen in a country where there are no race baiters eager to escalate things.
Say the kid was white. Is “white trash” unwise words?
