    Basically every mass shooter is “known to authorities” or “on their radar” and they don’t do shit.

    Someone who doesn’t even own a gun says something they decide is threatening? Time to throw the book at her!

    I swear the media trying to treat this with the same severity as a mass shooting (if anything they’re treating it more serious than a mass shooting. No news outlet had a talking head wearing a 3d printed 9mm pin offering thoughts and prayers) is making me lose my mind. The media is basically trying to say Luigi gives mass shooter vibes. There’s a reason there has been efforts to remove pictures of him, take down posts of his statement, and generally trying to frame him in the same vein as a school shooter.

    Also more proof (as if we needed it) that the bail bond system is solely in place to keep poor people in jail and rich people out.

      i absolutely think they are going to roll out the same viciousness they used to defend the zionist entity if this nascent class disturbance keeps going

        Absolutely, you can already see it starting with various outlets rolling out articles on how the CEO was good actually and people like being screwed by health insurance. I have no doubt that they will crack down hard on people supporting Luigi or his actions.

        It’s not like she found an executive’s number or went to an office, she literally just got mad at a service rep over the phone. If someone actually attempts/succeeds in a copycat assassination the response is going to be 1000x worse
