St. Louis woman dies in another fast-food dispute By Joel Currier ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH 09/02/2008

ST. LOUIS — For the second time in a month, police say a fight over fast food has led to the killing of a St. Louis resident.

Decora Jenkins, 18, was fatally shot early Monday in her home in St. Louis after arguing about a fast-food meal, police said.

Jenkins died from a gunshot wound to the head shortly after 1 a.m. in her home in the 1600 block of McLaran Avenue in the city's North Pointe neighborhood, police said.

Jenkins, her boyfriend, 20, and Erika Wherry, 28, returned to Jenkins' home after ordering food from a fast-food restaurant.

All this came about over a hamburger. It's a terrible situation."

Andrews said tough economic times may have factored into the argument.

"It's sad out here right now," she said. "There's no jobs. Everybody is stressed out."

There's no jobs?
Someone had money for fast food.
20 million Mexicans managed to find a job.

Just the usual stuff from the shallow end of the gene pool.

"Wherry and Jenkins' boyfriend began wrestling over the food, police said. Wherry then picked up a gun and fired it toward the boyfriend but instead hit Jenkins, who was standing behind her boyfriend, police said."

Should have had a V-8.

Well 2 out of 3 sentences I wrote were right.

Still why on earth do you fight with someone for a stupid burger? And then pick up a gun and shoot at them. With your niece standing behind the person. Insanity.

It is another exampel of black-on-black crime. They are self-destructing as a race, on the whole.

Decora?............named for a kitchen cabinet?.........

Good guess. Probably not for a feminine of "Decorum"
