I don’t care if he’s ‘off his meds.’ I don’t care if he’s ‘gang-related.’ His family could have reported both behaviors.
And I certainly don’t want a slew of psychologists paraded thru courts at tax payer expense, to substantiate the perp somehow wasn’t responsible for his own behavior because of white privilege or because somehow this poor gal contributed to her own assault. The gal was not in the wrong place at the wrong time. She had every right to be in in a public store at ANY time.
Intentionally planning to target a (non-black) victim (hence the ‘gang’ excuse from the family), with intent to kill is a felony hate crime no matter how much fluff the press will try to put on it.
Obvious Hate Crime. What’s with these racist asses?
