Oh now we’re doing details of the link tab posted? Ok.
In the Hartford killing, Thompson and King were roommates, too, making their living situation unique to other renters around the country who are bracing for mass evictions. But while all the details were not immediately known, the deadly dispute was over unpaid rent, the latter being a serious reality for many people.
It was unclear how late Thompson was with his rent. However, the Hartford Courant reported that King told police on July 25 that Thompson threatened him with a samurai sword when confronted about the unpaid rent. King was found beheaded in the home the very next day.
Let me get this straight. You have a psychopath as a roommate who ends up beheading you with a samurai sword. But you are the asshole in this situation for pushing your poor roommate to the brink? Do you think maybe just maybe, there might have been some other shit go down before the samurai sword came out? All roommates must remain frozen in place for the entirety of covid even if you think your roommate is insane and might kill you?
You guys are so far out in la la land it’s ridiculous. Pick better examples to rally around.
JFC this shit is getting on my last nerve.
And on the other BS - I never claimed I wasn’t lucky. I was born a white male in the US working class but not dirt poor. I happen to be very good at a skill that pays very well. I try to give back as much as I can. I’m hoping my book makes a tiny difference in attitudes towards the people of Latin America. The main reason I can (semi) retire early is no kids.
But you can just fuck right off if you think I’m not allowed to criticize celebrating murder - or call out anything else on this site I think is patently ridiculous - for fear of checking my privilege.
