Following the killing, some argued that had Hattori been white, Bonnie Peairs may have not reacted the way she did. The Haymakers stated in an interview following the trial that had Hattori been white, they believed he would have never been killed, noting that Bonnie Peairs said that she first noticed that Hattori was “darker colored” than her.
I’m inclined to agree. Although the wife/instigator denies it, deeply learned/inherited societal racism affects nearly every relevant choice.
That was infuriating the whole way through. I don’t exactly want to recommend reading further, because it’s just a depressing story all around, but this was well written and provided the piece of information I was shamefully burning with curiosity about
Thank you regardless. That definitely is a sobering read. Poor Webb Haymaker, he tried…
It didn’t have what I was thinking about, though… Even though the country is completely in the gutter with gun crimes by civilians and law enforcement alike, it’s at least nice to know that my initial assumption, that the Brady Bill the community helped enact probably was decommissioned, is in fact still active and enforced.
You mean like that Japanese kid that knocked on the wrong door and got shot? The guy who shot him was acquitted.
