It would be good for him if they never catch him, but if they do, and he is sentenced to death as would be expected, his last words could greatly magnify the historical impact of his act, as with the anarchist/labor martyrs of the early 20th century.
That is, unless the media deliberately suppress what he actually said and report his last words as “skibidi toilet” or a declaration of undying love for some Jodie Foster analogue or something, thus proving that the shooter was nuts, as anyone who had a grudge against America’s healthcare providers would have to be.
I know this is indirect speech how they'd spin it, not your own words, but I fucking hate the way these vampires are spun as "providers" - they don't provice jack shit except the rare case of "I provide the wealth to shoulder large financial burdens at once" (but we all know the fine print on that).
The actual providers, on the other hand, have to watch a mother's entire world collapse when she's told her child is gonna die because the treatment isn't affordable and the insurance that made her come all this way to find an in-network doctor in the first place decided the kid should try Yoga or whatever bullshit.
I’m sure the propaganda ghouls in the US are currently talking with one voice about how Brian Thompson was one of the carers, who gave his life to helping the sick, and how his killer is bound for the lowest circle of Hell alongside Hitler, Oswald and the Rosenbergs.
Bitch, my boss is doing more for my healthcare.
Spontaneous Home Office because I caught a cold? If you mark it on your time sheet, I might have to reprimand you, so just don't.
Doctor's appointment with awkward scheduling? If it interferes with important meetings, we'll have to see if we can make it work, otherwise just mark it in your calendar so I know when you're unavailable, catch up the hours whenever.
Granted, it's an office job and I'm doing good work, so he has little reason to object, but that puts him above Thompson already.
So you're saying there's a difference between healthcare providers (doctors/surgeons/nurses/PAs/etc) and wealthcare providers (insurance companies)?
What I've seen the media do is that they will under-report the story and highly focus on a meaningless attention-grabbing event to distract from it. Whenever I see lots of news reporting on something meaningless but engaging, I think they're covering an important story that they don't want us to see.
I would really like to see a site that aggregates independent media so that we could see news headlines by media that isn't handicapped by political connections.
There's plenty of sites that'll give you whatever AI written garbage that'll conform to your personal political beliefs.
The real problem is revenue is drying up for media that confirms their sources and reports the facts without having a political slant to it.
People only viewing media that conforms to their personal biases is what got Trump elected.
New York has no death penalty afaik.
They'll throw him in prison where he'll be treated like royalty.
They can easily prosecute this as a federal crime in a federal court. Crossing state lines might be enough to do it, and they can probably add some additional charges like terrorism. Federal murder can be eligible for death penalty.
Biden should do something cool, since he's thinking about preemptive pardons...
