[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would the case be getting this much press if she weren't white?  Don't think so.[/quote]

I was thinking the same thing.  I can see why this would be a big story in Boston but not a national story.  I wish more attention were given to the missing/murdered Native American women.  Guess they're just not as telegenic or sympathy-worthy.   :roll:

If you think it is, then maybe you should be spreading the word, instead of disparaging and judging others.

[b]People follow what they identify with - it is not rocket science. [/b]

Stop showing up on each of these threads with the same old tired trope - do something about it - spread the word in other ways, to other boards/sources!  Your coming here and trying to disparge and judge the people who read this site is only hurting your message. [/quote]

You're right.  It's not rocket science.  It's racism.  It's a shame that you, and others like you, only see the tragedies/issues of those you identify with.  It's a shame you can't find anything about Native women to identify with - if nothing else, they are human.  [/quote]

Unfortunately, [b]women of color are treated terribly and victims of crime more than UMC white women[/b].  White women like this woman are featured in the news because the story is unusual.  UMC white women rarely are murdered.  It’s shocking. Sadly, a woman of color being murdered by a spouse isn’t as interesting of a story.  If crime were very low in say the African American community, then it also would be a huge news story when a black woman is murdered or goes missing.  [/quote]
Overall numbers, no. Why are you trying to pit WOC against white women? WTF is wrong with you? Women are victims of partner murder everyday. Coming on here and saying we shouldn't care about this case and how nobody cares when WOC are murdered is absolutely insane.[/quote]
