Another Shooting

I think you are on to something. Maybe he also went to the bank and the kidnappers asked him to go to the bank and get an international money order.

It’s all just a wild scam out of Punjab Pakistan to get the guy to send him a money order and Best Buy gift card information. Irish Envy just cracked its first case.

My money is on the wife hiring an EDP she found online to kill him. Pro hitters don’t ride bikes to Starbucks and get caught on camera. The act of the murder indicates someone who’s either crazy or comfortable killing someone. I’ll go with crazy.

Did you forget occupy wall street? That was cute for a few minutes. Protest in the streets, eat the rich, etc.

Lasted about as long as a six pack in my garage on a football Saturday.

Stop for a minute and think about all the mass shootings that take place around the country. Now, imagine if even a handful of said shooters for whatever reason choose to direct that energy towards people like the Heathcare CEO who was shot.

It’s not that big of a stretch honestly.

The wife found him advertising his work in the back of an old copy of Soldier of Fortune. He was kind of rusty, considering S of F hasn’t been published in quite some time.

Back track? In your opinion, state what you think I was trying to say or what I was back tracking on. Not everything is some battle, you see how NoDak can carry on a conversation without getting in his feelings?

All I was saying economic insecurity leads to people lashing out and it's likely to continue. I'm not siding with a bunch of anarchists who have no vision lmao.

My post had no feelings at all. Just reminding you of history you seem to have forgotten or ignored.

Your original post said BLM protests didn't last long because it was centered on race, but a situation like healthcare could lead to a bigger movement because it touches everyone.

Another poster and I pointed to the occupy movement, which was entirely based on income inequality, had no impact, and didn't last long.

Not a shooting but this penny trial needs to end.

Not a shooting but this penny trial needs to end.

Jury is deadlocked which is good for Penny. Judge has ordered them to keep deliberating.

 

[RDU Irish]

Just takes one Daniel Penny on the jury to do the right thing.

Forgotten or ignored? lol do you just sit there waiting to argue about the most inane things? Ok buddy you got me, I didn't put Occupy Wall Street in my initial post and have since discussed it with a rational adult and you're upset you missed your chance.

I can't believe me saying economic insecurity is going to drive people to commit violence is something that's this controversial for you.

Most mass shooters are still in the ghetto and they generally have free insurance.

Does anyone know a professional hitman? I’m curious what the standards are in the field and how so many people seem to understand those standards.

Different person but what would you guys do? He holds a woman next to him against her will. She's mouthing help me. He then picks her up by the hair and shoves her out of the car, proceeds to rant and rave at others, feints their way to get them to flinch away and then starts trying to break the windows of a moving subway train.

Now the few of you who would actually try to protect her and intervene (because nyc men sure as hell wont)tell me you could get him down and keep him down without him making you have to practically kill him.

It's just an impossible situation. 😔

Thanks for the insightful post!

Thanks. People are too fat and happy to have an actual cause.

Like the guy that shot up the Walmart in El Paso, the dude who shot up the Tree of Life Synagogue, Dylan Roof, the guy who shot up the Country concert in Vegas, the guy who shot up the grocery store in Buffalo, the guy who shot up a 4th of July parade, or the guy who shot Trump and killed a rally attendee?

These type of guys are generally committing suicide by mass shooting. Killing random CEOs just doesn’t seem like something these male role model deprived and attention starved weirdos would target.

Well let's cross our fingers.

In the classic cartoon King of the Hill it turns out you just need to put an advertisement in Soldier of Fortune magazine like Dale Gribel does.

Yep. I dont think any of them were result of an urban upbringing. Even here we get some wacky stuff, certainly not to be blamed on the population density (or lack thereof).

We certainly have an issue with weirdos in this country. Comes with the territory I suppose. I think mental issues are behind almost all "mass shootings*" that are not gang/turf affiliated. Normal well adjusted people aren't going around shooting a bunch of folks.

*The definition is like 4 victims or something like that.

 

[Blazers46]

I don’t see a big difference between your common inner city shooter and your suburban shooter. They both lack or are deprived of a good male role model. These shooters tend to be 16-24. The age where boys get lost. Black inner city shooters chose suicide by gang violence and white suburban mass shooters choose suicide by mass shooting. Different worlds but same root, same end. Anyway… these 16-24 year old don’t have enough life experience to take focus their energy on healthcare costs. They are young and lost. The smart ones are probably feeling invincible to health issues or even costs mostly covering themselves and maybe a spouse with insurance. Middle aged men with the ax to grind with healthcare costs seem to have grown out of the mass shooter mentality (for the most part, exceptions to every rule).

Not upset about anything and no feelings involved. Just pointing out an obvious fact of history you left out. Carry on.

The one broader domestic group that I can think of that also has a significant history over the past couple decades of ideologically driven mass shootings, bombings and assassinations is the white power/christian nationalist movement.

To clarify my earlier point, if groups/individuals with that type of mindset/conviction decided to start targeting corporate CEO’s or Board Members shit would get wild pretty quickly.

Brian Thompson shooting: 'Monopoly money' found in New York health CEO gunman's backpack in Central Park

Police still have no idea of the gunman's name, whereabouts, or motive, but although no weapon has been recovered from the bag, detectives did find a jacket he may have worn during the attack.

Really surprised they haven't identified the guy by now.
