    He had a manifesto, put monopoly money in the backpack and left messages on the bullets. He wasn't trying to get caught, but he wasn't hiding too hard. I think he wants to be a hero and have his message heard.

    Worshipping the wealthy is alive and well. Go visit a country club. Lot’s of CEO’s there. It’s absolutely disgusting. Have we made progress? Probably but it’s easy to hate an obvious scum bag like Thompson. He is low hanging fruit. Money is still the unquestioned king of our society from coast to coast.

    Anti capitalist or anti exploitation? I guess you can't become a billionaire without exploiting and ****ing over countless people.

    Lol at the right wing spin on this. They're trying so hard to be the victim in this. Poor health insurance CEOs lol

    He was a religious agnostic, anti-capitalist, climate change activist. He had the emotional (lack of) control of a liberal as well, apparently. They get mad and then think anything is justified -- it's how they think. Complete liberal on our hands here, folks. He rides a bike for goodness sakes, do I need to provide any more evidence?

    There's a difference between anti-exploitation and "quotes the unibomber".

    Tech wiz huh? That hacker angle I brought up a few days ago might be true. They seem to be priming us for it with the tech whiz thing

    On that, I agree with you. Even for the rightwing heroes who beat the rap (or the ones who got convicted by supposedly prejudiced juries), it wasn't because of jury nullification -- it's generally about how laws are written and how they are applied in jury instructions. I don't think our justice system nowadays has a big problem with juries going rogue to see their own justice done. Worst case, his first jury gets hung and he has to get a second trial.

    I don’t think the national temperature is yet at a place where this guy gets jury nullification.

    Maybe for someone doing a similar act in the future though.

    I've seen him called anti-capitalist a few times already. The corporate media is going to have to scrub his Rogan-sphere social media real quick to make that pig fly.

    They're going to start calling him communist/socialist/Marxist any minute now :rolleyes:

    Keep telling yourselves that (drink that copium). There's alot of discontent and anger brewing underneath the surface and it's bipartisan. Your divisive tactics to get the "poors" to fight eachother, will only work so much. Its a matter of time before it all comes to a head.

    [The Manifesto] is well thought out and the argument is sound - Joe Rogan

    Radical left wing violence is a big concern -- and this incident further proves it. Based on reactions from the sympathizers on Reddit and apparently here, we need to protect our business executives from executions. This incident has really exposed some extremists, who believe murder is justified for a man simply doing his job in the insurance field.

    Looking at some of the posts here justifying or celebrating this murder, one needs to be concerned about some of the leftist lunatics here wanting to take action, too.

    Simply doing his job of denying as many claims as possible, killing/financially ruining as many lives as possible- all in the name of increased profits. Keep playing victim lol.
