    “It’s just so sad and so senseless to kill someone over a dispute that should be worked out reasonably,” she told NBC News.

    Gonna force this peon to live in a mold, rodent-infested apartment for 2 years and see what she does about it.

    So this guy was living in a $1.1m place and was driven to adventurism? I really have to wonder if the bourgeoisie realise there is a limit to how far they can push people. A doctor who can afford a $1.1m is driven to violence! Heightened contradictions or what…

      I think it’s cause they don’t live in the bullshit as the rest of us do, so the tiniest thing sets them off and then the adventure movie propaganda sits in and they become walking time bombs. I random chud white guy with a facebook comment avatar look to him is more likely to cause random violance then any homeless person I’m pretty sure. Though this is mostly just me speculating on the fact i’ve seen a few studies that say homeless people are more likely to be harmed than to do harm and filling in the blanks.

      it’s a really bad idea to live in a place that is getting remediation for mold, lots of noise and potential toxicity. he should have moved into a rental and added the cost to the lawsuit

        Depending on how long him or the mold had been there could have already been too late. Mold will fuck you up mentally and physically long before you know it’s there

  • was reading some article where the guy had been inviting people over and showing them the mold problem, before ultimately suing the management company over the mold damage for something like $300k and the response from the management company was that he, as the resident, “had not done enough to reduce his risk.”

    im just like, what in the fuck does that mean? sounds like some totally weasel legal attrition shit that would drive someone to violence.

    also, the shooter is from West Virginia, a state with a storied history and present of corrupt institutions and people ultimately pursuing justice with their own hands.

    says he also cut open the gas line in his place and started a fire. guy was totally going nuclear.

      Unsurprisingly usa does very little to protect it’s citizens from mold or allow for anything other than moving or suing and hoping to win.

      Hell a lot of states don’t even try to have osha limits on how much mold is too much. Some places even say hey it’s humid so we’re not even gonna try suck it

      Did he actually shoot anyone from the HOA or just some other tenants?

      Edit: he killed a property manager who probably had very little power over the hoa and shot 4 other people

      I get the gist of fucking over the hoa, but that manager was probably just a dude collecting a paycheck and doing everything the actual hoa told him to do
