Probably with a check directly to his lawyer, if at all.
During the Great Depression, people were so angry at banks that they rooted for bank robbers. Things are so bad now that we're just straight up rooting for cold-blooded executions. Censoring people's online activities won't make this anger go away. The genies out of the bottle now, and if billionaires don't want any more dead CEOs, there will need to be fundamental, radical changes to our society.

OR...they raise premiums to pay for more security.
I mean, I'm sure they will, but I doubt it will make a difference. Trump almost got it twice this summer. He's only alive because he was incredibly lucky the first time, and the second time, the shooter was incompetent. Meanwhile, in the last 25 years, schools have added metal detectors, more police, active shooter drills, and bullet-proof walls, but it's only amounted to security theater. I'm sure there will never be another assassin who escapes and leads police on a 5-day manhunt, but there are too many guns in America to prevent a guy with a death wish from gunning down a CEO or billionaire.
Reddit just banned me for saying I support Luigi in his monster slaying quest and hope there’s more heroes out there.
Say, what’s the Lemmy policy on being real? I don’t really care. I’ll say it in person as well as any online platform, and if I’m banned from them all then I’ll just read books and shit.
then I’ll just read books and shit.
That's how I use the toilet!
Depends on the instance, I hear LemmyWorld doesn't really like it.

They let the guy who leaked Trump’s tax returns hold a gofundme, but folks didn’t really help him out as much as he needed.
