    Anyone considering running for high office, and looking for a hook to run on? Run for the governor of NY on a platform of giving Luigi Mangione a full and unconditional pardon.

    You would win in a landslide.

    Hey gun people.

    For decades I’ve been arguing you, and you always seem to think the 2A is very important for freedom in case you ever need to have a revolution.

    I want to point out that here’s an excellent chance to convince me I’ve been wrong about 2A being archaic.

      95% of American gun owners are pussies that couldn’t even get past the first hurdle when aiming at another human being unless their god king tells them to.

      that’s because they follow directions fairly well but lack the basic foundations of free thought.

        So let me get this straight: Not having free thought is what’s keeping me from using my guns to murder people?

    Corporate executives convince themselves they only do their job. Their action are evil but they are rewarded for it, so much so that “evil has become banal”.

    Recently reminded of the truth, they consider that “demonization”. Why should people leave you alone if you’re killing us & the planet?

    Even if “you’re just doing your job”, it still affect us personally and the law will either not be upholded or defend the right of the people. The only way then is steel.

    I’m dumb: I don’t see the complexity in Luigi’s action. I only see the truth: the only action that changed something after decades of non-violent political activism was bullets in a CEO.

      What did it change? Perhaps more people are becoming aware of the scope of the problem but from a practical perspective I don’t think any difference has been made up to this point.

      Only Little Caesars.

      The other chains occasionally deliver something minimally edible by mistake.

    One murder has put it all in to stark relief for many where the loyalties of law enforcement lie; and yet i cant help but think no one will remember who was on the side of the working class come election season

    So we know for sure which side of the class war New York Governor Kathy Hochul is part of.

    Are you taking notice state voters?

    If only they’d be proactive about the root cause rather than “proactive with law enforcement intelligence “

        ¿Por qué no los dos? If we stay mad long enough, maybe we’ll get an actual change in health insurance coverage. Or even single payer

        Then again, we may need to be mad for 4+ years

    CEOs and executives aren’t the target of the anger, it’s sociopathic CPAs (Cunts, Pricks, and Arseholes). It doesn’t help that to succeed as an executive one must embrace being a sociopath.

    The easiest path to remove the targets they’ve painted on themselves is to cease being, and behaving like, sociopaths.

    More broadly, we need to stop incentivising, rewarding, and normalising sociopathy.

      Or perhaps the aristocracy just builds another ring of fences and hires another battalion of guards.

    “We protect everyone on the streets of New York, not just CEOs”. While they might do that, this one murder has shown that for some people, the police really does the job they should be doing for everyone.
