Pipe bombs and the decomposed body of a handcuffed male were also found, the latter likely involving foul play, police said.

Foul play, you say? 😲

[–] FirstCircle@lemmy.ml 8 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

It's only foul if the dead person is white and Christian. Funny the sad excuse for a news article didn't mention whether the decaying body qualified as a Master Race member or not. You'd think the wife would have known the details but the sad excuse for a news article doesn't say what happened to her. Maybe the cops killed her with their toys.

lol

"I think it's clear the deceased handcuffed themself and decided to just sit this one out. By staying very still, Mr Parkington had no knowledge of the deceased's presence and eventually they succumbed to aparhy."

Please consider finding sources for stories like this other than CBS news. They don’t deserve your clicks/eyeballs/whatever.

[–] logicbomb@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago (4 children)

I've not heard this. What's wrong with CBS news?

[–] reddig33@lemmy.world 8 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (2 children)

~~Google~~ Do an Internet search for who owns cbs/paramount now. Then ~~google~~ do an Internet search for Bari Weiss, current head of cbs news. They want to own CNN next as part of the current WBD sale.

Search. The verb you're trying to use is "search". Took me three times to figure out that you weren't saying Google owns Paramount/CBS.

Also, just save them the trouble and say it's Larry Ellison, problematic billionaire owner of Oracle.

[–] PolydoreSmith@lemmy.world 7 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Hey block me too - I think your comment was poorly-worded as well!

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

CBS News is about to go full MAGA. They're firing EVERYBODY. They intend to join the Conservative Propaganda Machine, and give Fox News a run for their money.

After they're done with the news division, they'll be going after programming. That will take a while longer to cancel "Woke" programming, and replace it with new MAGA productions, and get them to the screen.

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Other than the extremely poor writing in the article?

[–] AcidiclyBasicGlitch@sh.itjust.works 19 points 4 weeks ago (4 children)

Nazi paraphernalia was also found inside the home, including writing on a wall that says "Kapitulieren nein," which is German for "No surrender."

Do all Nazis think suicide is some kind of loophole/technicality? Like maybe it's not really "surrender" if you forfeit?

[–] azimir@lemmy.ml 9 points 4 weeks ago

They're just rightfully following in the footsteps of their ex leader who only ever did one painting properly.

[–] mfed1122@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 4 weeks ago (3 children)

Maybe I'm wrong, but shouldn't this grammatically be "Kapitulieren nicht"?

[–] Kirp123@lemmy.world 31 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

He was just a regular nazi not a grammar nazi.

[–] tym@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago

chef's kiss

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

No. The closest I can come up with would be "Niemals kapitulieren".

[–] anton@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Not quite, "Kapituliere nicht" would be the correct imperative form, but sounds a bit weak. "Kapitulieren? Nein!" would work, but not without the question mark. No surrender would be "keine Kapitulation".

Romani ite domum

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 weeks ago

It's because they are stupid and fear going out in a blaze of maddened glory. When I think no surrender it's going down with the intent of taking every last bastard possible, not bitching out and putting a bullet through one's own brain. Though I guess it's good they don't generally do that since they'd definitely shoot up a pre-school or something rather than going toe to toe against the cops.

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago

You didn't kill me you so you didn't technically win!

[–] HellsBelle@sh.itjust.works 18 points 4 weeks ago

A representative for the investment group that initiated the eviction said in a statement, "We are deeply saddened to learn of the events that have occurred, and we extend our sincere condolences to all those involved in this tragic incident."

'Sincere condolences my ass. Gfy.

[–] xxce2AAb@feddit.dk 15 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Parkington fired dozens of AK-47 rounds at officers

The Nazi was using an AK-47? Tsk. tsk.

[–] FirstCircle@lemmy.ml 7 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Times are hard, period-authentic gear is expensive. What machine gun would a self-respecting Nazi have used? "A representative for the investment group that initiated the eviction" - oh great, the building was owned by Private Equity - the Nazi should have launched V2 at it.

[–] Kirp123@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

An MP40 I guess but they're pretty expensive, the cheapest goes for 16 000 dollars (the fully automatic ones).

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 weeks ago

Probably cheaper to build one from scratch at that point if you just want the gun and don't care about the history of the weapon.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

Any self respecting Nazi would have an Acht Acht in his basement.

[–] FirstCircle@lemmy.ml 13 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

has ... incredible capabilities

What kind of news story writing is this? Just what incredible capabilities does the machine have? Tell me! Name them. "Incredible abilities" wastes two whole words in this CBS news story and they tell me exactly nothing, they just take up space. This is more like the writing I'd expect from a high schooler, or from bad AI.

[–] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 4 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

What movie is this from?

Edit: Oh yeah, it reminds me of that bit in Dead Poet's Society

[–] anarchiddy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Nazis can rot in fucking hell, but so should landlords who want to kick 60 year old couples to the street who cant afford their apartment because of medical debt and illness.

The guy was shooting at officers coming to evict him.

[–] azureskypirate@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The news clip said "...after many years of not paying his mortgage." {0:45}

I am inclined to agree with you, because there have been cases of elderly people with pending evictions and unopened social security checks on their counter. They were simply too senile to pay their bills. {People I (mostly) Admire, Podcast, ep 100, interview with Sherriff of Cook County}

This case is not that. He chose not to pay, he chose to shoot at people, and he chose to kill himself.

[–] anarchiddy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 weeks ago

Not at all saying the guy didn't deserve to get clapped, but not for non-payment of his mortgage.

[–] 6stringringer@lemmy.zip 2 points 4 weeks ago

Chiming in to say I am tapping out & pretty good with enough stories so eternally wretched that the fact/fiction line is too blurry at the moment.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 1 points 3 weeks ago

As he fought eviction, Parkington wrote a letter saying he suffered from cancer and long COVID, and criticized lawyers and banks. Earlier in the week, Parkington's wife begged a judge to delay the eviction, writing about a decade of financial hardship and health issues. "Winter is coming and I am afraid I'm going to be left on the street," she wrote, in part.

Imagine being in these circumstances and arguing for any economic system other than socialism.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

What an idiot. He should have just waited for his pardon from Trump.
