Isn’t it funny how they don’t mention the races involved anywhere in that NBC news article? Think it would be the same way if a white guy did the same thing to elderly black patients?

Good thing he'd film himself doing this. Smart move to keep this kind of footage around.

Shhhh...we have a narrative to push.


This is a terrible thing for someone to do. Glad the guy was arrested.

That's about the only narrative I think needs to be out there for this one.

The comments are pretty bad too.. Seems like a lot of black folks have a deep hatred for us crackers..



A lot of them do because that's what they are taught by their "leaders". Can't let them have any power over their own lives.

I think working at a nursing home is such an undesirable job that you get bottom of the barrel people filling those roles. Add that to vulnerable people in late stages in your life and you get this BS.

I read something even more disturbing a few months ago. A woman had nearly drown to death at 14 but what incapacitated and unable to make speech or anything for the last 20 years. She had been raped for years by a nursing home worker, unable to convey help to anyone. They found out when she randomly got pregnant and a baby popped out.

True, but no mention of the race of the victim or suspect.

I don't believe this was racially motivated, however the narrative would be different had their roles been reversed.

Fair enough, on that I do not disagree.

According to the NBC article, the guy was another patient at the nursing home, there for temporary rehab, not an employee. I’m willing to bet he has a psych history.

I will bet anything this doesn’t get nearly the amount of attention that the thug killing got.

Just want to point out I was right.

Father of patient who beat elderly man at Detroit nursing home says son shouldn't have been there, suffers from mental issues

If you work in medicine for a while, you realize that there are way more mentally unstable people out there than most realize. Sometimes it’s not about race, it’s about crazy.

Oh that’s right..... “crazy”....... the white guys who do this kind of thing are “evil” though. How about we call it what it is? Anyone who would do this is an evil lowlife POS.

It would be racist to point out that this person of color was doing such a thing to a white woman.

What did the guy doing the beating say the entire time he was beating the shite out of an old man and lady give you this idea?

Because I think his words prove it was about race the entire time he beat the shite out of people who couldn’t defend themselves.
