Topic	Why do people of the same race have to defend each other no matter what...

Also, when I told people of the same race how ridiculous that was they said, "Oh, yeah, well you cant threaten somebody's life like that." You can't though. Yeah but it wasn't really a threat. She was just saying how she felt. All she said was, "He makes me so mad sometimes I want to just shoot that guy." I have heard other people say things like that and they were just venting. If she had said, "Tomorrow, I'm going to bring a gun up here and blow him away." That would have been a threat. She had just gotten frustrated. She's a soccer mom. Even so, there was no reason to try and take her to court. I can understand where she's coming from. She's gotta realize though that you can't make those sorts of comments towards people that you're not familiar with because they lack of context built through a relationship can lead to the other person taking it far more seriously than she'd otherwise meant for. Her talking about shooting a coworker she had a friendly relationship with will be interpreted differently than saying the same thing about a coworker that she actually disliked. Considering that they don't like each other in the first place, it was awfully foolish of her to say that, especially around people that can't keep a harsh remark to themselves. --- Who is?
