I am looking at another headline right now: “White House condemns using violence to tackle ‘corporate greed’”
When corporate greed is out of fucking control, and nobody is lifting a finger to do anything about it via legal channels, what the fuck else do you think is going to happen?
I’m also amused by how reporting on this has been “We’re trying to work out what his motive was,” when it’s so clear that everybody knows what it was. They are fucking us, every day, and this guy got pushed to his breaking point. The fact that there’s been such vocal support for Claims Adjuster - not just indifference - suggests that a whole lot of people are real close to their breaking points.
This is how revolutions begin.
Yep, and spreading pictures of the guy all over the internet in celebration of his deed has been a wonderful second step. That was truly clever and smart and didn’t help at all his arrest.
Go USA revolution, go!
Just put down that self indulgence, before you hurt yourself.
err didn’t the police put his picture out? you think a reddit post cracked this? last i heard it was a boomer
Yes, good. I love the smell of gaslighing in the morning.
I’m just sorry for the guy, while I do not condone what he did since I’m in a country where usa has license to kill without too many obstacles or consequences (I know, this ain’t narrowing it down much). The mugshots are the pictures of a man who knows he’s finished, done for. Nobody will really help him, and the best part of his life will be in a cell. And those idolizing him are the one who helped get him caught.
Before we knew anything about him, it was just as plausible that he killed the CEO for authorizing payments for abortion. It wasn’t clear it had anything to do with wealth in the beginning
The bullet casings make it pretty damn clear. If you didn’t know what it was about then that’s because you weren’t paying attention.
Circumstantial evidence made it damn clear!
Jesus it’s like nobody has ever read a crime thriller in their life. This is like chapter 1 misdirection
Only if you ignore what was carved into the bullets…
…meanwhile, back here on Earth:
That’s cute and all. What evidence did you have on day 1?
While law enforcement does not believe Thompson’s killing is part of a trend targeting health executives, the attack underscores the vulnerability of these high-profile executives.
Yes, very vulnerable people. I mean, not as vulnerable as an elderly cancer patient who’s been denied care, or a working class family driven to bankruptcy by medical debt, but, you know vulnerable to righteous retribution. Except, they’re not really even vulnerable to that, since they have the resources to pay for private security.
Judging from the pay I would say CEO should be one of the most dangerous jobs. That’s the only way the pay would make sense. Let’s make it so!
“Over the last two years, online activity has indicated a growing negative sentiment around conglomerates, the wealthy, and executive staff at private and public organizations,” the bulletin said. “Calls for targeting the executive team, their families, homes, and places of work using a variety of online and offline means to harass, disrupt, and harm the individuals and the organizations have become widespread.”
I wonder why…
Bitch please. That’s how unions got shit done. The boss made threats? Cops come to beat up and shoot at striking workers? Then the workers show up at the boss’ house and burn it down or beat the crap our of him. That’s how it used to be done.
I’m not even going to read their warning. Law enforcement should shut up and quietly do their job. No one has to talk to the pigs and if they dont show some respect to the public, no one will. So if they want to be professionals they should pipe down and keep their “warnings” to themselves.
I mean, doing their jobs is protecting the wealthy. They don’t exist for any other reason.
This is ultimately the moral failing of the Irish race
