America is on fire now over a shocking murder on a tram in Charlotte, North Carolina. A young Ukrainian refugee, Iryna Zarutska, took a seat on the tram in front of a large, hooded black man, Decarlos Brown. After a few moments, Brown took a knife from his pocket, leapt up, and slashed helpless Zarutska in the neck. Brown, a schizophrenic with 14 criminal convictions on his record, staggered off muttering, “I got the white girl.”
Zarutska bled to death on the floor of the train, in full view of others, who did nothing to help her. At last someone—a black man, note well—ran to her aid and tried to stanch the bleeding, but it was too late. She was pronounced dead by emergency personnel when they arrived.
