logged on just to post this what-the-hell

https://www.msn.com/en-in/news/world/us-man-beheads-father-posts-video-on-youtube-arrested/ar-BB1hx75Y

Justin Mohn, 32, beheaded his father Michael at their $390,000 home in Levittown, 10 miles south of Trenton - then displayed the head.

He said many saw him as the messiah, and wanted him as president, and urged relatives living with federal employees to murder them. He blamed the federal government for 'woke mobs' and migrants he claims are destroying the United States, and ranted against 'globalists and communists'.

The appalling 14 minute clip - which remained on YouTube for six hours after it was posted at 5:30pm, before being taken down - sees Mohn hold up his father's head in a bloodied plastic bag, having declared: 'Violence is the only solution to the federal government's treason.'

He says: 'This is the head of Mike Mohn, a federal employee of over 20 years and my father. He is now in hell for eternity as a traitor to his country.'

burger reich is uhhhhhhhhhhhh not doin so hot

That home price is just a hair above the US average. Strange they mentioned it at all, much less before the YouTube clip of the head in a bag and all the other wtf stuff.

[–] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 51 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Yeah 390,000 is just… a normal house

[–] Doubledee@hexbear.net 41 points 9 months ago (2 children)

People say stuff like this and I get real doomer "I'm never gonna be able to afford a house" vibes every time.

[–] Sinistar@hexbear.net 16 points 9 months ago

It's the median but I live in expensive ass California and I'm looking at homes in the 200k-ish range, so cheap houses are out there.

[–] NewAcctWhoDis@hexbear.net 6 points 9 months ago

Free Texas Revolution of our Times

Just like Honk Honk, the protests will involve murder and dismemberment of a national and putting the remains in a suitcase or bag

context: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Poon_Hiu-wing

graphic description of violence

Around 2 am, the two got into another argument, during which Poon revealed the baby she was carrying in her womb was conceived with a former boyfriend, and showed Chan a video of her having sex with another man. Chan reacted with rage and smashed her head against the wall of the hotel room and started strangling her from behind with his hands. They struggled on the floor for around 10 minutes until Poon was dead. Chan then folded her body into the suitcase, packed her belongings, and went to bed.[3][6]

So a guy took his girlfriend to Taiwan, murdered her there, then returned to Hong Kong.

He couldn't be extradited because Hong Kong has no extradition treaty with Taiwan, and Hong Kong does not recognize Taiwan as a separate political entity from mainland China. The 2019-2020 Hong Kong protests were the result of the proposal of an extradition treaty, which would've allowed Hong Kong to extradite people to mainland China as well as Taiwan.

The guy still hasn't been brought to justice for the crime of murder.

Maybe boomers will stop thinking their adult millenial children not being able to afford to move out is normal and not a problem

$390,000 home in Levittown

Holy shit. Levittown was a development created by a Jewish guy for white people. Basically it's the model for the modern subdevelopment.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levittown,_Pennsylvania

William Levitt had a career-long commitment to a whites-only policy in their developments.[dubious – discuss] Levitt & Sons would not sell homes to African Americans. Levitt did not consider himself to be a racist, considering housing and racial relations entirely separate matters. Initially, the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) conditioned essential financing for this and similar projects on the restriction of home sales to those of "the Caucasian race", as stipulated in housing rent and sales agreements and deed covenants.[12] This did not prevent Bea and Lew Wechsler, a Jewish couple from the Bronx, from connecting an African-American family to a neighbor who desired to sell his home. Levittown's first Black couple, William and Daisy Myers, bought a home in the Dogwood Hollow section in 1957.[13] Their move to Levittown was marked with racist harassment and mob violence, which required intervention by state authorities.[14] This led to an injunction and criminal charges against the harassers while the Myerses and their supporters refused to surrender and received national acclaim for their efforts. For instance, Daisy Myers has been hailed as "The Rosa Parks of the North",[15] who helped expose the northern states' problems with racial inequality of that time. Daisy Myers later wrote a book about her family's experiences.[16] She died Dec. 5, 2011, in York, Pa.[17] The NAACP and the ACLU opposed Levitt’s racist policies, and the Federal Housing Administration threatened to refuse mortgages on his next Levittown. Levitt still refused to sell to blacks, and developed plans for yet another whites-only Levittown—this one to be in Willingboro Township, N.J.—while fighting legal challenges in New Jersey courts. Ultimately the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear his case.[18]

The community's otherwise placid exterior was again disturbed during the so-called suburban gas riots of June 1979 in the wake of the Camp David Peace Accords, which resulted in a second embargo by Arab oil-producing nations. The unrest occurred June 24–25, 1979, as lines swelled and tempers flared in the heart of Levittown at an intersection known as Five Points, a location surrounded by six service stations, two of which were severely damaged by vandalism in the riots. The two days of riots made national headlines and were mentioned (although not directly by name) in the draft of an address to the nation that was to have been delivered by President Jimmy Carter on July 5, 1979.[19]
