offensive or funny?

You always have those light hearted people that try to look at the bright side of things. Yes! Those people are great people to be around, but when do you draw the line...

A 22 year old women dressed as a participant in the Boston Marathon Bombing for halloween. The bloodied women wore a t-shirt with a participant number in the middle and running shorts and shoes as she posed with a flashing smile to a camera. My question to her is was this some kind of a joke? How can you explain  your decision for this heartless costume?

I am trying to look at the situation from both sides of the fence, but I am finding it quite difficult to argue that the costume might have served as a sign of honor and remembrance for those who were lost.
I wish this women would have thought about her costume more, because now she is suffering the despise and hate that comes with idiotic decisions. I find her action embarrassing and plain heartless.

WHY 7 TIMES?

Andy Lopez: Looking at it from the inside out:

Every once in a while I am awoken by the racism that lures around our community, our states, our countries, and our world. On October 22nd a thirteen year old boy was shot 7 times for carrying a toy gun that seem to look like a real and threatening gun.

I read in the newspaper that Andy Lopez (the boy killed) was asked by the police to put the gun down, and instead of lowering the fake arm, lifted it and pointed at the police. Then is when the police fired.

This article: http://nation.time.com/2013/10/25/toy-guns-deadly-consequences/  and the news did not mention any of this happening. All they offered was the basic information. A boy with a fake rifle that got shot 7 times. 

What is the media hiding from us? You see it really fires me up when the media decides to leave out information or hide information from the public. I want to look at all of the situation not just what the media wants me to see.

Why 7 times? Why did Andy get fired at 7 times? Was 1 shot not enough? Why fire in the first place?

If the newspaper story was true about the boy lifting his rifle up when told to put it down then I understand the police's motives to shoot, but why 7 times? Wouldn't one be enough?

What if Andy raised his fake fire arm as an act of impulse or fear? 

The police could have tried to talk to the boy before firing at him. 

I can go on about the possible alternative ways in which the police could have dealt with this situation, but my question still remains; WHY 7 TIMES?

The other way to look at it is... Why was Andy carrying the toy rifle in the beginning? Why did he walk away when the police called him? Shouldn't he have known that people could mistake the toy gun for a real one?

All of this can be argued, but that is not the main point. 

7. bullets. fired. Was it an act of racism? Could it be considered injust? 

It sickens me to my stomach to think that a man can fire 7 bullets into somebody else. One is enough to injure or even kill a person. 7 bullets is a ridiculous amount. As a hispanic I could easily say that he was shot at because he was of latino/hispanic descent, but I refuse to go that route, because apart from being that he was a human being. One shot is enough to stop a human being from moving to quickly or escaping anywhere. Yes, his ethnicity certainly adds fuel to the fire, but we should take into consideration that 7 shots is 6 too many shots or maybe even 7 too many shots. A life did not have to be lost.

bullet 1. and he was probably down or even dead

bullet 2. definitely dead 

bullet 3. still dead

bullet 4. still dead

bullet 5. still dead

bullet 6. still dead

bullet 7. still dead

WHY 7?
