30 Year old evicted by parents

I am from the town where this man was evicted by his parents. This not New York city by any means. Its a small suburb of Syracuse, quite rural and republican.
The story started as a local news report that my partner and I watched at 5:30 in the morning the other day. I said to her... This is news? I was absolutely disgusted that they would exploit a family problem like this (speaking of the local news). Then I found out it had become national and even saw the article on Huffpost today..
Ladies and Gentlemen we are in serious trouble if this type of personal story becomes national news.. It is well past the time we all get on the street and start protesting every day against the Republican Party and Corporate news organizations... This has become Nazi propaganda at it's finest

Remember Niemöller said; First they came for the Jews...

As an 8 year Army vet, with 2 children who served in combat, this needs to stop. We need to be on our rooftops yelling and spitting in the face of family who support this BS...

Not that I find it interesting. Actually it's kind of pathetic. But newsworthy, when our Nation is being inundated with corruption, daily racism, and mass shootings ? Not so much.

De Oppresso Liber, xeodtech. And thank you for your service.
