Most of the people trying to assassinate presidential candidates and other public figures are your left wing nut cretins. And it actually helped in getting the candidate you hate ( so much hate you side) elected.
So ironic.[/quote]

Ridiculous allegation. Please provide Citation for any aspiring assassins who are LWNJs. The young guy (Thomas Crooks) who shot Trump’s ear st an Eimoand came close to killing him had an associate degree in engineering science and was a registered Republican. Now that’s irony.

I am not the PP you responded to, but I agree with her that the LWNJs are the people who are supportive of the Luigi the gunman’s actions.

Taylor Lorenz is a prime example of such a LWNJ.  The tenured Columbia university professor is another.

But they are merely the tip of iceberg of LWNJs condoning murder here.  And by “here,” I am not merely including DCUMAD.

I mean across the USA.  Violence is never the answer! [/quote]

It’s very Pollyanna to say it’s never the answer because as history has demonstrated it clearly is.

If our government attempts a Holocaust 2.0 I would say a revolt is needed. If we continue with current tax and corporate policies and eventually 99% of the wealth is owned by 1% while many of the 99% are left homeless and starving then I’d say violence is reasonable.

Obviously there is subjectivity as to the tipping point when violence becomes necessary to fight against an evil. You may not think we are there yet (which is easier to say for an employed person with decent insurance who owns a home, etc.) But a lot of people feel we are already close (if not at) a tipping point as evidence by people not caring this CEO died.

We’ve had our political powers taken away through Citizens United and the reality is white collar criminals have a lot of financial resources to fight against charges. The playing field is not remotely level. If you don’t want violence, then what options do the regular folk have to fight back against the tyranny of the American corporation and its C Suite execs who are engaging in their own violence (albeit through the use of power and bureaucracy).

It's very different to rise up against your government instead of hunting down your fellow citizens. [/quote]

But the CEO class is essentially running our government. Maybe not through being elected, but they are donating (aka buying out our politicians). And this is a problem on both sides of the aisle. So how exactly are the people supposed to “rise up” against politicians when they are funded by corporations?

It’s disingenuous to act like this CEO is just a “fellow citizen.” The reality is 99% + of citizens’ lives are in no way comparable to this guy. It’s not like he went after the little guy and shot a claims processor making 60k/year. [/quote]

Replace the government. Killing a CEO just creates another CEO. Do you think UHC's replacement will be any different? Do you think we get to vote on the CEOs? We only can vote for politicians. Stop voting for the corrupt incumbents.[/quote]

Replacing the govt doesn't do anything, because CEO$ and their lobbyists have ownership over our laws and who writes them.  Go ahead and try to elect new politicians and a govt.  They will just lobby it all away and water everything down because of Citizens United.   Corpristons and Wall Street ruined the entire country with CU.
