Re: UnitedHealthcare CEO Assassination
It amuses me to see just how many firearms autists jumped in on this conversation with their intricate knowledge of the hardware details. They remind me exactly of all the railroad autists with their obsessive knowledge of alphabet soup terms like MP40 and SMEE that ordinary people never heard of or care about, and still don't.

Re: UnitedHealthcare CEO Assassination
I agree. Whenever a person goes to commit a crime, there are 50 ways they can fuck up and get caught and if they can think of 25, they are a genius.

Re: UnitedHealthcare CEO Assassination
This hits my eyes as someone who fully expected to be caught. I don't believe killing this guy is where he expected the story to end. I think he wants to get on the witness stand, where he knows the world will be watching, so he tell the world why he did it. Having his manifesto published won't be enough for him. I think we'll find out he doesn't want an insanity plea and if his lawyer tells him he can't take the stand, he'll fire him and get another lawyer. Did you see the news clip of him hollering while they were trying to get him from the car into the courthouse? He wants to be heard. Will it help him? No. I'm no fan of health insurance and the games they play but murdering people isn't going to bring about change. I'm not sure I have the answers (government needs to step in?) but John Q Public deciding who has a bulls-eye on their back is a scary concept. Where does the concept of "you did damage so you deserve to die" stop? The kid who drives wrecklessly and rear-ends your car and causes permanent back damage because they were texting? The contractor who takes $10k of your money and never does the work? The financial advisor who steals your life savings? The kid who knocked up your 18 year old daughter after a few too many beers, which ends up saddling you with having to raise this grandchild and destroys her chances of going to college? Firing an employee? All of these scenarios (and hundreds more) damage a person's health or damages them financially. Are we now individually empowered to decide whose life needs to end? |
