I Think Its a Lowball Charge: Two Alabama White Women Charged with Disorderly Conduct for Threatening to Shoot a N In WalmartTwo Southern 20-year-old women have been arrested in connection to a video posted on social media, threatening to kill Black people at a local store. Both women were charged with disorderly conduct after a prominent civil rights organization reported the incident to law enforcement.
On Thursday, June 23, the Tuscaloosa County Branch of the NAACP released a statement notifying the public of a video posted a day prior by a white Shelton State Community College nursing student. In the clip, the young woman threatened to shoot a n-word in Walmart, prompting the organization to submit a query to the Tuscaloosa Police Department to investigate the domestic terroristic statement.
The organization also contacted the schools administration and learned even before their outreach, both the school and the police were working together to address the issue.
In a statement regarding the investigation, SSC stated, The College is fully participating with law enforcements investigation and is dedicated to upholding its institutional values of integrity, accountability, respect, and responsiveness.

They should be charged with a hate crime. This kind of Trump induced racism cannot stand.
