As someone who was alive in 2020, what was amazing was that nothing was really shut down. For a few weeks, there was a (state level) 10pm curfew for non-essential work/gatherings.
If shutting down bars and restaurants at 10 pm for a few weeks 4 years ago crashed the economy… Then maybe the economy wasn’t that strong to begin with?
Nah, he’s guilty, but I wouldn’t convict him.
Oh no, he’s threatening to hold his breath! What will I even do!?
When you’re ready to talk like an adult, I’ll talk with you like an adult.
Aww, someone didn’t have the attention span to wead da whole comment and now dey are super angwy about it…
did brian thompson deserve to die for his crimes?
The answer is no. Unless you are counting his drunk driving and insider trading. His business was operating legally, and he was providing legal orders when directing UHC to deny 30% or more of bills. And that’s the problem. Brian didn’t commit crimes, but the industry as a whole is insufficiently regulated, and should not be privatized, but they are so large and powerful that the general citizens cannot oust them. Denying any coverage and passing the bill on to the insured party should be illegal, but it isn’t.
I feel the same way about Brian as I do about trump. Not sad or angry that they got shot, but I’m upset that someone shot at them. In a better world, we would be empowered enough that the answer to these moneygrubbing grift barons would come before violence, unfortunately, when you only react to violence, violence becomes the only answer.
For my FBI agent… I do not have plans to harm anyone, and this comment is an observation of the current political, social, and equality situation in the US, and not an advocation of violence.

Bombastic.
The shame cuts deep. I hope you don’t need stitches.
they keep trying to pass more and more gun control.
If you’ve got a solution for the absurd rates of mass shootings in the US, that does not involve some form of common-sense firearm restrictions, then you need to let people fucking know about it.
That being said. Common sense firearm restrictions is not the same as “taking guns away from the working class.”
They wont gut Medicaid, they’re just going to force it to take on huge debt while they cut taxes for the 1% and then say that it’s Democrat’s fault for overspending.
If they would campaign on Medicare for all…
That’s essentially what the ACA was before the Republicans gutted it (the first time).
…and stop trying to take guns out of the hands of the working class…
This isnt actually a platform or goal of the Democratic party…
they would get several of my family members to vote their way.
So… Which Russian agent did they vote for instead?
Thats not going to happen.
The only thing they love more than bitching about government overspending, is benefiting from it. The whole DOGE will have less power in the government than the meme it’s based on, and the people who will run it are looking to line their pockets with your money for the least effort on their part.
Jar-jar, is that you?
Fuck that guy. The worst part, we’re still paying for his fucking corrupt bullshit.
Well good, this was one person. What does your book have to say about vigilantes?
I have bunnies. They will not give you peace.
Peace can work too, but the Ivory towers types need to learn that ignoring peaceful protest, and undermining accountability and regulation, will inevitability lead to violence. He brought this on himself.
"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.”
Hopefully this makes all those money grubbing assholes consider how many of the millions of people they’ve fucked over have access to firearms and their location.
Doesn’t matter if you were born here or not, you just need to look like you would fit white in with their idea of normal.
