A Chicago-area landlord has been arrested and charged with murder and hate crimes after authorities said he stabbed and killed a 6-year-old boy and seriously wounded his mother, allegedly because the tenants are Muslim.
it’s so weird, right? you’d assume that the landlord has seen the mother and child before…and after the whole israel-palestine conflict, he just suddenly becomes violent towards them? the propaganda he watches must be super unhinged
From the local news reporting he was very friendly to them previously:
“What we have is a murdered Palestinian child by someone who is radicalized by the environment in which we live right now, that casts Palestinians as human animals,” said Ahmed Rehab, president of the Council on American-Islamic Relations in Chicago. “This person had no track record with the family. As a matter of fact, the father says he had built a treehouse for the boy, and allowed him to swim in a makeshift pool and brought him toys.”
The nonstop propaganda about Muslims as dangerous subhuman animals can turn a normal friendly relationship into a targeted and cold-blooded murder.
Maybe in previous covid years he suffered a stroke or something else that made him rapidly go demented. There was no talk about Palestine\Israel before the music fest terror. It’s too short of a window for that change otherwise.
There has been more than enough ongoing anti-Muslim propaganda in conservative media to prime people to just need a single horrific act and the terminology escalation that follows to push them over the edge.
We can speculate about mental deterioration or whatever, but that just makes people more susceptible to the propaganda. Without flooding the airwaves about the inhumanity and danger of Muslims there isn’t the trigger to go get those specific people.
You are right. It’s wrong and intense. If you turn off your filters, you’d get insane real quick. What’s probably happened there.
I’m just guessing about this surprising and fast switch and a couple of my coworkers got exactly that with their elderly in a recent couple of years. A degradation from regular adults to not knowing how to brush their teeth and reacting to any annoyance like a baby in an adult body.
You pointing this out is important because not all of us have a learnt adblock and many people, especially children, are endangered by this shit.
This landlord that was involved in the incident in the Chicago area this week…
The one that killed a tenant? Yeah.
Yeah, that’s not very typical, I’d like to make that point. Well, how was it un-typical?
Well there are a lot of these landlords owning rental properties around the world all the time, and very seldom does anything like this happen. I just don’t want people thinking that landlords aren’t safe. Was this landlord safe?
Well, I was thinking more about the other ones. The ones that are safe?
Yeah, the ones that don’t kill their tenants. Well, if this wasn’t safe, why did it own the property?
I’m not saying it wasn’t safe, it’s just perhaps not quite as safe as some of the other ones. Why?
Well, some of them are raised so that they don’t kill their tenants at all. Wasn’t he raised to not kill his tenants?
Well, obviously not. How do you know?
Well, because he stabbed a six year old boy twenty-six times, and his mother more than a dozen times. It’s a bit of a giveaway. I’d just like to make the point that that is not normal. Well what sort of housing standards are these landlords held to?
Oh, very rigorous realty standards. What sort of thing?
Well, they’re not supposed to stab their tenants for a start. And what other things?
Well, there are regulations governing the materials their apartments can be made of. What materials?
Well, cardboard’s out. And?
No cardboard derivatives. Like paper?
No paper. No string. No sellotape. Rubber?
No, rubber’s out. Umm, they’ve got to have a toilet. There’s a minimum room count requirement. What’s the minimum room count?
Oh, one I suppose.
Typical landlord mentality
I hate landlords too, but killing six year old tenants in cold blood with a knife is - thankfully - very atypical landlord behavior.
