"All murder is wrong! You're all sick!"
Oh, cool, so we agree, let's decommission and dismantle our for profit military industrial complex, demilitarize the police, ban the death penalty, and remove all guns from civilian society immediately!
AND make sure everyone who's sick get all the help they need!
From the bottom up, in order of those the worst off with having the least upward!
The logically and ethically correct response, as usual, is the one drawn from leftist theory.
Killing in self defense has been a cornerstone of human legal systems since human society has existed.
Violence comes in many forms. This time it was a bullet. It could be a denied healthcare claim. It could be excessive copays and deductibles. It could be wage theft. It could be abuse of workplace power dynamics.
Employers shouldn’t have started the violence if they didn’t want people to start defending themselves.
Exactly. An important point to make is this was, is, and will be a murderous rampage by him and whoever they appoint to sit in the chair. That's the job. To fuck over the customers who trusted them with their very lives and prepared for disease by paying them ahead of time in the name of private profit.
This literally happened at a meeting about how to deny their claims more, and this event didn't change that. They want to kill their customers when they become inconvenient. All for profit insurers do.
And they're allowed, LEGALLY, to casually discuss at a conference how they're going to KILL these customers and those customers on this buried technicality and that legal loophole and that's fine, but in most circles the people who've experienced their sociopathic, ice cold, emotionless rampage for private greed, will be silenced for so much as expressing approval of what happened a few days ago.
Profit belongs in making widgets, not in sectors people need to survive. I've been screaming that for years, and they called me madman.
Im so defeated that I'm literally telling myself not to trust any hope.
