As a former Marine, fuck this guy. He’s so lost his way with regard to what he’s actually supposed to be standing for.

I appreciate former Marines like yourself coming out across the socials to say this. We should be normalizing the good of what you volunteered to do, and its purpose. These crazies need to learn what they apparently completely missed, and that they are dishonoring the military position they served.
What a doofus... we all know this is Elon's America now anyway.
didn't realize we called racism "bias-motivation" now
« It seems the physical interaction was motivated by a slight difference of opinion »
Wait, I think I've figured it out! All minorities need to get jobs at health insurance companies ASAP! That way any magats who threaten or attack you will be prosecuted as terrorists going after the health insurance companies.
To really make Republican heads explode, everyone who's not a Republican needs a small arsenal of AR-15s.
No no no, you're confused. The field the company is in doesn't matter. What matters is if that you get to a C-level position.
I'm thinking of the woman who said over the phone in response to her claim being denied, "deny, delay depose, you're next" or something close to that. She was talking to a regular employee at the health insurance company and was immediately arrested and charged, could get something like 10 years in prison. So you don't have to be a high-level employee.
edit: rechecked the details and found:
Boston was ultimately charged with threats to conduct a mass shooting or an act of terrorism, with a bond set at $100,000, as first reported by local station WFLA. That's a second degree felony, punishable by up to 15 years in prison.
But if you make it to a c-level position as a minority in a company the same crowd will spend all day everyday talking about how you're a DEI hire.
So heads racists, tails bigots I guess.
It's not that hard to become über wealthy, you just need to be born from über wealthy parents. Simple.
Also the amount of melanin you have, as both Luigi, and the person being Luigied.
They used to be called “hate crimes”. Why are we soft peddling violent racism like this
It's terrorism, actually, since it is politically motivated.
Terrorism and hate crimes are nowhere near mutually exclusive, though. This is a case of both.

But a woman who got mad for having a claim denied for health care coverage THAT SHE PAYS FOR and saying something in anger, well that's a big problem, but stalking someone for 40 miles and strangling them is cool, right conservatives?
The attack is being investigated as a possible bias-motivated crime.
The levels of avoiding saying "hate-crime"
You have to do some tap dancing these days to avoid saying Trump = hate.
Well in the USA white supremacists can't commit hate crimes since hate is their religion and their church is the state

After ABC News just ponied up $15M to settle that Trump lawsuit, it's no surprise.
Sure, but it's fucking pathetic

He'll be charged with terrorism...right?
If he attacked a CEO yes, otherwise no.

Alex, who had been out reporting, then drove back to his news station in the city. After he got out of his vehicle, Egan chased Alex as he ran toward the station's door and demanded to see his identification, according to the document laying out police’s evidence in the case. Egan then tackled Alex, put him in a headlock and “began to strangle him,” the affidavit said.
He followed him, chased him down and proceeded to strangle him, and they still needed to determine if this was a "bias-motivated crime".
He said it - "it’s Trumps USA now". Get ready for a whole lot of fecal matter hitting the air circulation device…
Egan, who was driving a taxi, pulled up next to Alex at a stoplight and, according to an arrest affidavit, said something to the effect of: “Are you even a U.S. citizen? This is Trump's America now! I'm a Marine and I took an oath to protect this country from people like you!”
Yeah still too early to tell isn't it

He followed him for 40 miles
40
That’s insane.
These are the people that vote for Trump.
He tackled a man.
Because of his purported ethnicity.
That's insane.

This shit is only going to get more frequent, and a lot worse very soon.
I wish the man wasn't right. But he is. This is Trump's America now and this is the new normal and the lügenpresse will be amongst the first victims.
This should be a thing. Every time something horrific happens it needs to be labeled as "Trump's America."
And I don't mean things like natural disasters. Increases in hate, poverty, brutality. Things that Trump stands for and causes.
