  People were happy about the killing of Brian Thompson the moment that news of his death spread. A health insurance CEO. A man who systematically denied healthcare to thousands of people, almost certainly leading to some of them dying.

  You can say that murder is wrong, and be correct in that. But then surely being instrumental in running a system of denying and delaying people’s access to medical treatment leading to their death is so much worse that directly killing one person.

  Tell me you’re an insurance company executive without telling me you’re an insurance company executive

  I still believe he’s a look-alike scapegoat because they never found the actual guy who did it, but yeah go off I guess. Not like the CEO was responsible for millions of deaths himself but because it’s a ‘business’ he gets to be called an entrepreneur instead :)

  An executive whose job it is to increase profits by systematically denying care to vulnerable people.

  I’d like the guy and think he is a hero even if he was ugly.

  not-yet-convicted murderer

  Using lethal force to stop a mass murderer from continuing their spree isn’t murder.

  Even if he’d done it (which he didn’t), it wouldn’t be murder, he should be given a public commendation, not a jail sentence.
