mother kills 4 kids b/c of "borkers": w67thstreet

keep in mind that this poster previously owned residential real estate and was involved in numerous litigation with his tenants.

nopigsorshrimp, is it your position that the real estate industry doesn't have blood on its hands in these tragic deaths?

Oh, so you blame the real estate industry too, interesting.

nopig: You share a remarkable M.O. with hfs, jimhones, and ulster/greene/jefferson counties. You wallow in righteousness and cast yourself as ultimo critic by selectively taking posts out of context and re-posting on a new thread. Then you endlessly flog your victim with inane, absurd, comments that you have repeated ad nauseum on every thread on the board. Are you reviving this name because you have been banned so many times you are running out of aliases?

i don't know where you sucked up this particular post but it sounds to me like your adversary, w67 is sending a clarion call for us all to show some compassion for a hapless woman victimized by her circumstances and who found no escape short of a medea-like tragedy. The fact that you choose to ignore tragic real life circumstances just so you can bash another poster in an ethereal nether world shows how twisted you really are. Why don't you get the f off this site where intelligent people would like to share some informed data about a vital subject. Better yet, get some help. You are in denial about just how sick you are. For your sake, I hope you don't end up of the front page of The Post.

Makes sense. 4 kids are dead. But apt23 has pity for the mother "a hapless woman victimized by her circumstances"

nopig is clearly the one who needs help.

Seriously, apt23? I find npos an irritant, but w67th's blaming a quadruple murder on the real estate bubble -- absent any facts whatsoever to suggest that the monthly rental cost of her sh*tty SI apartment had anything to do with anything -- was truly beyond the pale, and certainly not intended as "a clarion call for us to show some compassion." Next he'll be invoking the Holocaust. (Oh, wait, he did that earlier today as well.) Next time a real estate owner murders someone, should we blame the downturn?

Mr.pigorshrimp: Alan was making a valid point. Good that you found it interesting.

See: apt23 for more.(above)

agreed, its a good point. All of kosherboy's whining over the top doesn't change it, just makes the broker shills look more guilty.

Did anybody watch 48Hrs,yesterday? A man who had lost his job, and then another; because of the economy -- actually said that he would be worth more to his kids dead , than alive. Because, if dead; they would at least be able to collect Social Security.

And, they were already just surviving; when he had a job. In rural Ohio.

somewhereelse: Oh, man. You are back, not a minute too soon.

Suicide is a tragedy, even ones like the gentleman on 48 Hours, who apparently killed himself to make the world better for his loved ones

the person w67th and apt23 seem to support is a murderer. (but of course we should harken w67th's clarion call and, in the spirit of apt23, show some compassion for her).

Shrimpie,
a greater life could be led by the addition of prescribed psychopharmic agents.
See your local physician or go to psychopuppy/tripolar/treatment@pfizer.com

psychopharmic is a big word

Do you support apt23's sympathy for the mother who murdered her 4 children?

I hate those borker

Miette: Since this post was taken out of context and I am not familiar with the thread, I don't know about the issues you raise but :

"I can't imagine the despair of a parent to kill their own and the fear of the younger daughter watching her older sister being killed by her mother haunts me."

is clearly a compassionate understanding of poverty and what tragic circumstances it can lead to. If you ever find yourself in abject circumstances-- just like the many citizens pounded by this recession who never thought their privileged lives would end in poverty-- I hope you find more compassion than you seem willing to give now. You clearly have no sense of nuance when you rhetorically ask if we should blame the downturn for murders in any particular circumstance. Have you never read a greek tragedy?

more important to show compassion for the mother than to worry about 4 kids who received none from their mother, their murderer

I feel plenty of compassion for that whole family. Which is why I'm not going to take their horrible story and use it as fodder for my rhetoric about real estate prices.

apt23 is more concerned with her apartment than 4 kids killed by their mother

Is apt23 a mom?

It's about the price of everything: Food, clothing... Those people on 48Hrs were dependent on a food-pantry. That father said that he would move to anywhere; if he could get work.
