    The guy was their landlord for two years and suddenly decided to murder them? What kind of sick fuck stabs a 6 year old until they die? Fuck this guy.

    Edit: and he stabbed the poor baby 26 times?! What a god damn monster

    Plainfield is full of these people. It used to be a haven for the KKK. The high schools had racially motivated brawls as recently as the early 2000s and I don’t get the impression things have improved since Trump was elected.

      I lived there and went to high school there from 2008 until like 2018. I didn’t get the impression that overt racism was an issue in school although I could see micro aggressions being a problem.(I am white tho) But I do know the people that stayed in Plainfield after graduation and I could see it getting worse. It’s also far enough from “big dangerous Chicago” so I wouldn’t be surprised if it attracted a certain kind of person.

      Kill all republicans.

      Yes, othering and dividing our society further will surely solve this problem. Keep seeing people who disagree with you on some things as identical to the outlying monsters who murder six year olds. It definitely isn’t a tactic used to control people or anything.

        I don’t see them as “others” because they have different beliefs. I see them as “others” because they have willingly allowed propaganda to radicalized them into believing we don’t deserve the same rights as as them, which gives them an excuse to see us as less than human. When they don’t believe we deserve rights and are less than human, this happens.

        Stop putting the blame on the people defending themselves and their rights and place it on the aggressors. But clearly the enlighted centrist knows better…
