Oh he's not...Mentally ill people almost never see themselves as mentally ill. It's everyone else who's f***ed up and wrong in his eyes. He mostly has good intent, just goes about it all wrong. Like he started the war at his apartment building with other tenants over their putting trash out habits. My bro is super organized and methodical, and when other people don't do as he expects, instead of nicely asking them to fix it, he's go call them pigs and threaten to beat their asses, with lots of name calling....The one tenant is Muslim and he told them he was gonna slap him upside his head with a pork chop, for instance....REALLY racist shit! And he lives in a semi-scummy building so most of the tenants there are slobs. Like I said, he's lucky to be alive!!
I don't even know what to say to that. :( In this new climate he's going to get himself charged with a hate crime for doing stuff like that.

That was yesterday, and I did see him...took him some smoke and was going to take him to lunch, but I couldn't take the delusional rantings and wound up just dropping him off at the grocery store! It's amazing he hasn't been killed from some of the shit that comes out of his mouth, and he has a war going with tenants in his building, that HE started. He's one messed up dude. He did have a really f***ed up life. He was in a group home for boys by age 12-13, with mostly inner city gang members. He's been an alcoholic since an early age....and he has seizures from so many fights and falls. He is actually doing the best he ever has...but this mental illness shit is going to get him in trouble, killed or locked up. He's be a great candidate for sedation!
Dude, I swear we really may be brothers, because it sounds like we have the same brother! Except for the organization. My brother hides his mental illness in fundie christianity. He got so crazy that his wife recently left him and took his two little girls with her. She's no prize, either, but she's no where near as crazy as he. I feel bad for him because he really doesn't know why nothing really works in his favor, but to everyone around him, the reasons are as clear as day. He's had a hard life, too. Everyone in our family has.

That's scary. He is still alive, so he must not act on that kind of threat often, right? Safety to your family..
Well, I think he's only alive because he is tough. He actually has friends, and he has worked as a roofer his whole life, and that's a pretty tough crowd!! He has been in more bar fights that anyone I know. And as I said, he is tough as hell, but he can;t fight for shit after a few drinks, so he usually gets beat up. Many, many trips to the ER in ambulances over the years. Luckily his drinking has slowed down quite a bit.
I don't even know what to say to that. :( In this new climate he's going to get himself charged with a hate crime for doing stuff like that.
He has alienated so many "normal" people with his comments. He made his old landlord cry saying racist comments to her and he doesn't understand why.

And sadly, the world is still full of people like him. I really don't think he is all that racist...He has friends from all walks of life, just no filter.

Oh damn...another Realtor just called and said he will have at least 2 offers tomorrow, both at least 40k over my asking price...the new asking price I just increased by 35k. I never thought I'd see the day when this town was booming again!! All thanks to f***ing Covid! Isn't that insane?!!!

Tomorrow might need to be a xanax day...I feel the stress building already!!
