craigslist car deal gone bad
Man shot after car deal sours:
The craigslist crime spree continues unabated. This time in Vallejo, California.
A man placed an ad on craigslist to sell his car. A buyer was interested. The seller and the buyer meet in public at 1pm. The buyer asked the seller to drive him to another location to get money. The seller agrees and has his brother followed him. The buyer went into an apartment and returned with a payment in lead striking the seller in the leg.
Here’s a description of the suspect�
The suspect was described as a black man, 6 feet 2 inches tall, 160 pounds, black hair with blonde tips and brown eyes. He was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and blue “Jibaud” jeans with red stripes on the knees.
And the suspect’s name is believed to be Tyrone. I couldn’t make that one up if I tried. Guys like “Tyrone” are the reason stereotypes get perpetuated.
Anyway, again this is another craigslist related crime and still no outrage on the level that MySpace receives.

I think it is a huge problem and hear they don’t regulate it for shit. And that is why this happens not because “Tyrone” went and did it cause a stupid male made a retarded decision and had access to craiglist. I know many of trashy people all colors and ages dont matter who they are it will happen. So the fact that dude is black doesn’t really have anything to do about it he just a dumb bitch.

I agree. I realize that him being black had nothing to do with the crime. I was just making a comment that stereotypes of all colors perpetuate because people continue to live up to them.

I totally know what you are talking about it’s just don’t you think that everyone lives up to their own potential, no matter what you look like or where you’re from. I just think it shouldn’t be a stereotyping situation cause this crap goes on everyday. But trust me I know what you’re saying.
