I dont think it was an intentional setup, its was a rookie cop (for real, he was new) who arrested the first person he found where one person from the public claimed it was the perpetrator, and he didn't marandise him, searched his bag without him bring able to see it. And didn't find a gun. Arrested him (remember I said didn't marandise), called someone from new York, who came down 6 hours later, then they found a gun in his bag.
Yes Luigi was at a hostel in new York the day of the shooting. This is the only link they have. Similar, not the same looking jacket, other clothes were not the same. Was in the same city.
I dont believe Luigi was the shooter. If he was he woudlnt bring a gun to McDonald's
I think he is the guy (not that it’s a bad thing).
The “anonymous tip” that lead to his capture was rather “illegal surveillance/technology the plebs don’t need to know about”. And they found the gun and manifesto in NY and planted it on him to make the case go smoother.
I honestly think they fucked up massively, thus the endless delays of the trial. In a high profile case like this, if the evidence was solid, they would have already crucified him.
I hope for a mistrial or acquittal, maybe it will be the final spark that ignites change in the US, and later the world, leading to the death of neoliberal capitalism.
Sounds like a much more complex reason than just incompetence, so both Occam's razor and Hanlons razor would support incompetence rather than a conspiracy
And if that conspiracy was true, why would they send a rookie cop?
agreed that no one goes to that much trouble to carry out an assassination then walks around with the murder weapon. plus i wouldn't trust a plastic homemade gun to begin with, but after it had been fired several times? that's literally trash.
the only mitigating factor I guess could be mental illness. Brian Thompson wasn't exactly an obvious target, as far as evil CEOs go, still seems weird to pick him
Have you read the things United Healthcare has done and continues to do to people in the name of profit, and even if that's not enough, if your life or the life of someone you cared about got ruined because of the decisions of your insurance providers, that could be motivation enough for someone.
hey calm down i don't work for them.
Yes can't you see, hes unemployed, so he can't work for them
you didn't read the whole username. I got fired from being a claquer, which means I can't get paid to clap in 19th century French theatre productions. Gosh!
No that would mean you are a claquer that is unemployed, I know because
I can assure you a plastic home made pewer can go hundreds of rounds and thousands if done right and not abused
Just look up the guys doing it on youtube
