I don’t really celebrate murder, but I’m certainly not gonna mourn the loss of someone responsible for many preventable deaths bcz they wanted a bigger paycheck.
I think the latter is fine, but there’s lots of active celebration going on.
Understandably. I’m emotionally removed from the situation enough to know that I shouldn’t actively celebrate, if I knew a loved one who’s medical care was denied by a for profit health insurer or if I had to waste my life fighting with them for basic care, then I’m sure I would be actively celebrating too.
I rightly celebrate when evil is destroyed. That ceo killed a huge number of innocent people just so he could make himself even ultra wealthier. That’s true evil. The shooter is an absolute hero.
In a better world the serial killer ceo would go to trial and be jailed for the rest of his life. But in the world we actually live in, the ceo would have faced zero consequences for his evil acts, and he would’ve continued living a life of ultra wealth while he continued murdering thousands more innocent people. So in lieu of legal consequences, shooting him is the most good thing that anyone could’ve done.
Completely agree, but lots of folks here are cheering for what amounts to cartel style street assassination.
What makes it “cartel style?”
Not killing the right people, you know, the poor 😉.
Brazen broad daylight, “professional” (in this case well prepared), targeted. Corporate or politically motivated
Realistically it’s a stylistic thing, as we’ve seen countless such videos of similar killings
