Honey Cocaine- Shot!

If anyone is familiar with Tyga, they would probably know that he has a new rap artist named Honey Cocaine. She's small in stature, but don't be fooled because the bars she brings are far from miniature. Although I haven't heard much of her music, I do know this: early last week she was shot in the arm at Tyga's show in Omaha, Nebraska. The story "supposedly" is that Tyga was enraged after a person in the audience began throwing objects on the stage. He asked the audience who threw it as a response to the rude act. After the show, Tyga and his entourage were followed by a four-door black sedan and police say Tyga's vehicle had several bullet holes. Although Honey Cocaine was shot, she later Tweeted that she was alright and still alive. Derrick Lowe was also shot and just like Honey, he was okay.
My question is this: Why did it come to this? Were the people throwing things during the concert even the same people that shot Honey and Derrick? If so, what angered them so much that they would risk taking a life? It's horrific to think about. It's events like this that give Rap and Hip-Hop a bad rep. It's not all thugs and gangs and shooting and drugs (although her name being Honey Cocaine isn't really helping). The time-line of rap music is a sad story, in my opinion. From Murs rapping about "Dark Skinned White Girls" bringing attention to white girls who appreciate the African American culture, black girls who don't "fit into" their stereotype, and mixed girls who have an identity crisis-- to Waka Flocka Flame saying the same ideas in rotation ultimately saying nothing but, it has an "ill beat", is a shame.
