What I would like to know is if she was just angry, or if "she was drunk , or on drugs"

My guess is she was not intoxicated, but just an angry person who had to have her way. That is not suprising after having lived in the US.

Watch the film. It does not say whether or not she was impaired.

1 hour ago People like this make me sick. This is the reason that everyone has such a negative opinion of Americans, and this is the reason that the rest of US women, like myself, can't get a husband or bf. It's not fair to judge someone because of their nationality but idiots like this are to blame for the world's opinion of Americans. I think that she should be forbidden from EVER reproducing, because a little version of her is the last thing the world needs.

Great Orchestra, they look Korean.

They went pretty easy on her. If it were a black person they'd be in jail for years for ASSAULT not VANDALISM. She only got something like 60~90 days iirc. It really benefited her to be a white girl.

I was surprised too at the light sentence.


Indeed. They seem to throw the book at a black person.

I understand this inequity and refer to non Black People as the "good people" , the ones the cops give a break too.

As a white person, that really makes me mad.

Having a British reporter cover it as a story adds to the condescending judgement of American culture impression whereas it was clearly a subcultural incident, something along the lines of Eminem white trash versus the Black worker she's probably prejudiced against. Notice the customer's come-on-and-fight black rap aggressive arm moves up by her side? It was like she was gonna pop out the rap or put a cap in someone. Thank god she didn't have a gun.

I figure drunk and angry. If you pause the video at around 1:13 you can see she threw a beer bottle through the window.

I loved her attempt at trying to get in the window, she lifted her leg about a foot of the ground, realised she was too fat and inflexible to actually get near the height of it and went back to punching.

Darn, because this was just something I copied from another forum.

Reminds me of being in upstate NY. I stand by my assertion that northern white trash is far far scarier than southern white trash.

I see , she is from Ohio - never noticed before.

In Iowa, they like their trailer parks and customer service jobs - and are proud of their trailer parks.

What I could never understand is that it is not cheap to live in a trailer park with the lot rent and increased utilities!

So , in many cases it is not because of lack of cash flow.

But when you consider the lost wealth from not being in real property over time - it just does not make any sense to live in a trailer.

I guess it is the inability to see this loss of potential wealth as the factor that loses me with this segment of the population.
