Funny how the politicians and the media react with horror, but the entire rest of the Internet has an entirely different reaction. I wonder why.
A person died, murdered in cold blood. That person had people that loved him. Politicians need to be respectful. Would you prefer they celebrated the execution of mass murderers on death row?
It's a horrendous thing. To see a person killed before their time when they didn't have to die. Just like what happens to thousands of Americans each year who are denied coverage. If we're actually honest with ourselves, the only reason this one is seen as a tragedy by politicians and CEOs is that there was no profit to be had in it.

John Brown Did Nothing Wrong
The CEO got shot just two days after the anniversary of John Brown's execution. I'm sure JB smiled upon this assassin from the afterlife.
