I hope once the news cycle about The Adjuster dies down, he or a copy killer pops another one. (hexbear.net)

I know adventurism like this would probably lead to life getting worse for all of us somehow. But I'm just feeling really jokerfied lately and want to see the hogs get scared for once. I hope if it happens again they get Musk or Theil because they're so goddamn annoying, but capping an insurance board member or majority stake holder would be pretty cool.

There's absolutely people chomping at the bit but without reliable support I think they'll not execute for various reasons. If there's any self-preservation or doubt that the public will just acquit anyone for these kinds of actions (probably best odds are medical insurance CEOs). Doing it all alone and not getting caught is just so damn hard.

Our hero really put themself out there. I'm wondering if they considered any other tools for the job. I hope we never find out, but did they know about the lack of security detail? If it seemed like they would be apprehended immediately, would they have waited for another opportunity? Maybe they have been close before, that would be something.

the weather and situation this time was perfect so he executed it
