As I pointed out a few weeks back, people who use the word “Disrespect” as a verb <\/a>are nothing but trouble. <\/p>\n

Ripped from the headlines? Proof <\/a>(with emphasis added): <\/p>\n

Aloeng K. Vang, 19, of St. Paul, told police that he shot Jeffrey T. Elling as the victim answered the door of his home in the 1400 block of York Avenue, according to a second-degree murder charge filed Tuesday against Vang in Ramsey County District Court.<\/p>\n

The men had argued a short time earlier after Vang allegedly turned onto Elling\u2019s street at a high rate of speed, nearly striking Elling and his girlfriend as they crossed York Avenue. At the time, Vang was headed to a cousin\u2019s house on the same block \u2014 a residence where people had driven recklessly before, the charges say.<\/p>\n

During the altercation, Elling pushed Vang to the ground, and Vang, who had appeared to be intoxicated, felt disrespected<\/strong>…Initially, Vang, who turned himself in to police at the scene, told authorities he been driving around in an effort to cool off.<\/p>\n

He later admitted, however, that he had gone to his house to get a gun, according to the complaint. He rang Elling\u2019s doorbell, hid behind a tree and then fired two shots when Elling answered, Vang told police.<\/p>\n

He added he didn\u2019t mean to shoot Elling, only to scare him.<\/p>\n

\u201cI should have just whooped [him],\u201d the charges quote Vang as saying.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Once people use the term “disrespect” as a verb, we should just through them in jail to protect whomever they might hurt in the meantime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
