When model minorities go bad



Local blogger Joe files the definitive account of the young suburban mom slayer Esmie Tseng.

Her parents were Chinese and quite old fashioned, you might say strict, borderline mean, and the girl sometimes said she hated them. But all in all it was your normal teen blog, though perhaps the writing was better than most, and the author, Esmie Tseng appeared to be just your typical suburban kid growing up on the Internet.
While I generally don't agree with mom killing, I'm down with breaking stereotypes. This Asian chick went apeshit in a way that's usually typical of spoiled American teens. What a country. Truly a melting pot. At least when it comes to everybody acting crazy.

Still, hard for me to feel sorry for kids who kill. Black kids taking out an Asian delivery driver or a crazy Chinese chick who cracks under the pressure of being good at math. Once you kill somebody, you loose the right to sympathy. Unless you're really hot or rich or have a hot or rich mom and dad.
