I don't admire leeching at all, I don't understand how me comparing landlords to murderers would give you that impression.

I will say I do know quite a few small time landlords and they are good people, but to try and say they're not leeching is disingenuous. In fact, I'd argue some of the big corporations are actually less of a drain on society because they generally build housing that wasn't already there. The worst are the large "mom + pop" landlords who own multiple properties but don't have the competence or will to take care of them. Slumlord behavior.
