      he took another life in cold-blood

      Hasn’t been proven, yet, so he’s innocent still. Also: it wasn’t cold blood, whoever shot the guy was angry and targeting him specifically

      Lick that CEO boot harder, you’ll surely get a share soon!

          I wonder how many sons have been left behind as a result of their fathers having their insurance claims denied.

          First, he and his wife had been separated for some time, and he had minimal contact with his kids. Second, how many children lost a parent due to being denied coverage as a direct result of his policies? I don’t know the exact number, but I know it’s a lot. No sympathy for that evil bastard.

      What? I don’t typically find males attractive and I was supportive of this man’s actions way before I knew what he looked like.

      Also, isn’t it a bit too soon to say he hasn’t accomplished anything through his violence. I mean at the very least he’s sparked a massive discourse about how Americans have a fucked up health industry. This is all while the media pretends he doesn’t exist anymore because they realised that sympathy for Brian Thompson was… lacking to say the least.

      Brian Thompson killed tons of people in cold blood. There’s basically zero chance he would have seen any justice for that in the foreseeable future. Taking him out was no different than taking out an active shooter.

      Oh wow, he did? No need to have the trial callisto on Lemmy declared that he did indeed commit the crimes that he has not yet been found guilty of in a court of law

      All of which was handled improperly by the police. The arrest the evidence all of it fruit of the poisonous tree. It’s gonna be a mistrial.
