Why would a White Supremacist kill a philanthothropist? Just because she was involved in helping black folks?

Another California murder story to make me scratch my head today. I'll say no more. I admit to being selfish. I hope they don't go after me.

It is a shame that someone would kill Jacqueline Avant since she was a person who cared for the poor people.

Very odd. Maybe it was random and they didn't know who she was.

@TheHorse That could be a factor since I have never heard of her before.

It never stops and funny how if we fixed this problem like so many claim, how come so many racist things keep happening let alone racists killing?

@TheHorse I am not forcing anyone to do anything, I just found it funny how many times I get asked or told we fixed racism. No we did not they just hid it for a long time and once racist president became a thing racism is cool again.

@RubyHawk It can be complicated. When I worked in a certain city, I was the victim of many racist taunts and threats. But I was never actually attacked. I was worried that if I retaliated to a racist attack, I might have been called "racist" myself. I did not want to get involved in that kind of thing.

@TheHorse Me either but scientists say everyone of us have it in us to kill in the right circumstance. I suppose I would to save my life or someone else.

By The Horse @TheHorse Why would they go after you? I understand what happened. As soon as you wrote White Supremacists. They hate blacks and Jews. Does not surprise me that they murdered the one helping blacks.

You need to look for the facts before you make such racist remarks. The suspect is black. PS Not every white southerner is a white supremacist.

Why are you obsessed with white supremacists? The man arrested for her murder is black. I found nothing that would have implied he was a white supremacist even if he had been white. Either you're being facetious, you're a bigot, or you're incredibility fast to claim things before you even find the truth.

@1creekgirl I invite people to do their own research. And to actually read what I write. Some do. Some don't. I'm glad you did. Given that I've devoted most of my life to helping black people, I've always thought that it would be ironic if I were killed by a black person due to racism. That may be what happened in this case. But we don't know yet.

@DocAndersen I have trouble presenting facts to both my extreme Liberal and extreme Conservative friends and acquaintances. I have even been hung up on. Sigh. My training is in research psychology. We generate hypotheses based on what we've seen, heard and read. Then we TEST those hypotheses by gathering more objective data. Many humans are victims of "confirmation bias."

@TheHorse once facts get involved the two sides can settle down I hope., right now there is so much supposition pretending to be facts its hard to see the forest for the lies.
