I offer Brian my most shallow of thoughts and prayers, and my heartfelt condolences to the families and individuals that have been brought to ruin by his unchecked greed and corruption.
Get fucked, Brian.

As I said on other posts about this: Remember that jury nullification exists. If you're on the jury for the shooter, or someone like him, you can just say not guilty and there's nothing they can do to you. The court can't tell you that you gave the "wrong" verdict.
Just don't tell them you're going to nullify, because they'll remove you from the jury.
No one who is in a position to determine the life and death of millions should ever feel "safe" from the people they have the power to harm.
French Royalty learned that the hard way. Maybe it's time to remind people again.
Hope gun man gets away. Fuck the first article I read of how great he was and how touch the lives of so many. Just forgot to mention it was touching them by allowing people to die and suffer. I am with you fucking billionaires and rich CEO should be scared and shitting their pants.
CEOs should be scared. Especially extra ghoulish industries like this.
Make them feel like they need security.
The security guards they need --> 
I volunteer as tribute
Yeah I don't know the details of this murder, but I do want these types to be extra paranoid. I want them to live in fear of the choices they make
Make them feel like they need security.
You mean some kind of safetynet to make sure they're protected if something unforseen happens to them?
What a novel concept! Maybe we should create an economic equivalent for everybody in society...

Another ~~billionaire~~ forty three millionaire down, too many still to go.
Reports say he was worth $43 million. He was $957 million short of his first billion.
If he was a Mario enemy, he'd be that first goomba.
I mean, capitalism preaches the necessity of winners and losers. The owners demand there be millions upon millions of losers so they can win largely enough to buy pet mega yachts for their primary mega yachts.
Guess he lost.
Welcome to the free market baby.
Oh I'm sorry, does that only apply to the innumerable members of our society dying of exposure and ~~police~~ capital defense force brutality in your local gutter for the crime of not generating enough value for the shareholders in the "wealthiest nation on Earth?"
Look, I know he's out now, but his k/d ratio was insane.
- Thoughts and prayers
- that's rough buddy
- What a shame, he was a good man... What a rotten way to die
Great, now I have to playthrough DX1 again... It's honest work
GMDX.
Makes it playable in the modern age
He probably bled out waiting for insurance to approve the expenditure for the gauze.
Consequences are rough.
Keep reporting this post, libs. I'm getting a blowjob by a robot powered by angry libs reporting cool and based things about killing CEOs on the internet and I'm about to bust!
Can I get a robot like that for uhhhh.... friend?
1 report = 1 stroke
I'm reporting it right now to add to your stroke count, comrade
Wait, wait, so the right wingers also want the evil CEOs to be destroyed, it's not just the lefties???
The fuck are we fighting about, then?
No war but class war.
The right wingers want to destroy the evil government and be the CEOs. The lefties want to destroy the evil CEOs and be the government.
"Libs" is not a epithet that indicates the speaker is right wing.
Libs claim to hate Donald Trump and what he stands for, but damn if they don't circle the wagons to protect the sociopathic, literally murderous greed machine that Trump's entire persona is basically a totem/mascot/cartoon of.
It's like they don't even know the theme of Trump's gameshow that endeared him to his nitwits.
Sorry neolibs, you cant separate out the greed from the racism and misogyny. The greed we're Inculturated to indulge and encourage is every bit as monstrous as racism and misogyny, it merely has a better marketing team.
Greed/racism/misogyny are all just flavors of elitist sentiment. "I'm a lot better than others, and thus deserve a lot more resources than others."
- Brian Thompson, CEO of UnitedHealthcare, was fatally shot on Wednesday morning in a targeted attack outside a Midtown Manhattan hotel.
- Thompson was in Manhattan for UnitedHealthcare’s 2024 investor conference when he was killed.
- The New York Police Department reported that the suspect fled the scene and remains at large; no arrests have been made.
Thompson was in Manhattan for UnitedHealthcare’s 2024 investor conference
LOL
He sure as fuck wasn't there for the "help people access affordable, reliable, high quality healthcare conference".
Hopefully it wasn’t just a mugging
The cops said he waited in the freezing cold in one spot for ten minutes before taking the shot and fleeing down an alley to a bike he had waiting. This was 100% premeditated.
In unrelated news, I have an erection that will probably last longer than 4 hours.
thoughts and prayers
LOL JK
Thoughts and prayers for the shooter, hope they get away with it
It was super early. Hope they were able to get back to sleep.
Sleep tight, king
The kind of wholesome news we need in these trying times.
