Yes white people murder their spouse just as quickly and for any reason you can think of so leave the racist crap out of this.
As a white person I can honestly say that there are good and bad in everyone and there are plenty of bad white people in this world.
should she be locked up for defending herself????? Give the law time to sort it out first before they throw a her in jail. Doesn't she have a kid to care for?? He was supposed to walk away from the argument they had not hit her.... Now he is paying for attacking a woman. I hope he lives and she doesn't go to jail for defending herself. I mean what kind of law is it to say we should not defend ourselves!!
