TPTB are making a statement. The perp walk along with the terrorism charges are sending a message to the plebs; the corporatocracy must be protected no matter how many deaths they're personally responsible for.

Hmm. So the dead victim in this story is a deserving member of the “corporatocracy”? Would you mind explaining what and why that is?
 

I never watched the TV series "Bull"
but..now... am enjoying on IONI I I I
re:The process of selecting a jury = voir dire.

it would be interesting to see it for his trial.
"Heard"...prosecutor will try to eliminate young (where sympathy lies)

12 Angry Men is a classic.
 
l can go for the death penalty but l can't go for someone killing someone because they're pissed. Who would be next? Your son or daughter? Husband or wife? l don't want to live in that kind of society.

Hmm. Deserved? Not within the rule of law. Jeffrey Dalmer was sentenced to life in prison without parole but was bludgeoned to death…also not within the rule of law. I’m as upset about Thompson’s death as I am Dalmer’s.

We will probably never know the hell of crappers he pulled in prison to get his brains beat into the steel bars of a cell plastic floors or whatever!
He probably just wanted to get it or win it.

My thought is it was the guy at a computer screen that caused it not the CEO.
 
and how do you go about becoming a deserving member of an auto ???? toetoe??? crazy crazy ?? - don't quite get that bit - and if you are undeserving do they still keep you as a lucky charm??
 
Yeah... so with this mindset, all the "needless suffering" that has been brought about by obesity and diabetes, etc. gives anyone the right to shoot the CEOs of McD's, Burger King (evil fast food) and Pepsi (evil sugar) in the back? Good gracious. :rolleyes:

I don't think anyone is saying Luigi had the right to do it; only that many don't care it was done.
 
There are a lot of similarities with the motivation to kill him, as there were during the French Revolution towards the Aristocracy.

Similarities Between the Killing of the Insurance CEO and the French Revolution

Social and Economic Frustrations​

  • Perceived Inequality: Both incidents were driven by deep-seated social and economic frustrations. During the French Revolution, the aristocracy was seen as responsible for the country’s economic woes and social inequalities, while the killing of the insurance CEO was potentially motivated by frustrations with the healthcare system and the perceived profiteering of insurance companies.
  • Sense of Injustice: In both cases, the perpetrators may have felt that the victims were responsible for perpetuating a system that was unfair or unjust. The aristocrats in France were seen as benefiting from a system that oppressed the common people, while the insurance CEO was viewed as a symbol of a healthcare system that prioritizes profits over people.

Targeting Symbols of Power​

  • Symbolic Targets: Both the aristocrats during the French Revolution and the insurance CEO were targeted because of their perceived role in maintaining the existing power structure. The aristocrats represented the monarchy and the old regime, while the insurance CEO represented the healthcare industry and its perceived failures.
  • Violence as a Means to an End: In both cases, violence was used as a means to draw attention to the perpetrators’ grievances and to spark change. The French Revolutionaries used violence to overthrow the monarchy and establish a new social order, while the killing of the insurance CEO may have been intended to highlight the need for reform in the healthcare system.

Emotional and Psychological Factors​

  • Anger and Resentment: Both incidents were driven by strong emotions, including anger, resentment, and a sense of betrayal. The French people were angry about the economic and social conditions imposed upon them, while the perpetrator of the insurance CEO’s killing may have been motivated by a sense of personal tragedy or loss related to the healthcare system.
  • Desire for Revenge: In both cases, the perpetrators may have felt a desire for revenge against those they perceived as responsible for their suffering. The French Revolutionaries sought revenge against the aristocracy for their perceived crimes, while the killer of the insurance CEO may have sought revenge against a system they felt had wronged them or their loved ones.
Also keep in mind that 600 people around the world are killed everyday by a firearm. 71% of those deaths were homicides.

The difference is: health insurance is a necessity. You can't live without it unless you want to rely on emergency rooms, which result in enormous debt that could ruin your life. Junk food is not a necessity; it's a bad habit.
