A 73-year-old Detroit man is behind bars for allegedly attacking a 7-year-old girl with a knife in a city park full of children, slashing her throat in an incident that ended with the child racing home to her mother for help, and the suspect in handcuffs.

"He just like came out of nowhere and just like (pulled) the knife on me," the girl told Fox 2 News as she sat on a porch step this week with gauze around her neck, explaining how a day at the park with her grandmother turned into a day of horror.

They are saying they can't prove it's a hate crime. Just ask him where he keeps his red hat and to really get him, ask foe his opinions on migrants.

Wouldn’t necessarily put this to a political side. Dude was just crazy

If not for conservatives, the U.S. would have mental healthcare support systems the way every other developed nation on earth does.

Conservatives don't believe the study of psychology is valuable. They do not support mental healthcare. They do not believe the science of mental healthcare. Conservatives did this and they continue to insist on these conditions on a national scale. Fuck conservatives. They are 100% responsible for attacks by mentally ill people.

This isn't politics. This is good vs evil, plain and simple. Conservatism is a scourge of oppression and death. It always has been.

Both things can be true at the same time.
