It's only really happened the once so far. I think they're overreacting at this point...

To some extent, yes. However, history has a tendency to repeat itself, and generally we see that there’s only so much inequality that people can take for so long. Deny them a peaceful option for change, and violence becomes inevitable.
To be clear, this is not a threat. It’s an observation, and history’s promise.
Here officer here's the guy. /s
In the US, to get what we deserve we've been killing businessmen and politicians since before the country was formed. Just a few years ago a whole mob of idiots tried to kill our Congress.
CEOs, not schools!
Well obviously they wouldn’t have to worry if they stopped putting profits over people and gave people good service and fair coverage.
So of course, they’re now demanding we pay them more via state-funded private security to protect them from further violence.
A for-profit business must put profits over people. That's why health care must never be a for-profit business.
Huh, interesting. I wonder who is paying politicians to ensure this predatory behavior is never regulated in the healthcare industry.
Could it be the executives whose primary compensation consists of company stock, which only gains value as they continue to systematically murder people by denying necessary medical care coverage? I wonder.
Ha ha, I don't think you really wonder. (:
