I applaud your moral high ground stance, but it’s worth saying there’s no court that can punish a man like that. They are above the law.
What’s your idealist’s heart say about what to do about people like that when the system that’s supposed to protect us from them is completely and utterly broken?
I keep having to go back to the French Revolution- eventually they were executing hundreds of people per day. I’m sure all of them were guilty and deserved Capital Punishment.
Even Robespierre was executed, and the whole thing blamed on him, though he was adamantly against these executions.
We’ll never know what would’ve become of France if a different approach had been taken rather than just start lopping off heads.
Well, you see, the blood was warm when it was spilled. Unfortunately, because the customer was in the 3rd tier SuperSavings Freedom Unlimited* HSA Semi-Preferred SelectChoice Healthcare plan, all claims require a 24-hour waiting period after symptoms erupt to allow rebuttal from the primary physician. The blood was only cold after the grace period elapsed.
tolerance should not be considered a virtue or moral principle, but rather an unspoken agreement within society to tolerate one another’s differences as long as no harm to others arises from same. In this formulation, one being intolerant is violating the contract, and therefore is no longer protected by it against the rest of society.
Yes, killing a man in cold blood by gunning him down in the street.
What a joyous occasion.
That was no man

I’ve heard this rumor already but haven’t seen a source on it. Thank you
Do I get a prize for leaving the 100th downvote on this clown?
To quote a recent tv season, there is no prize to perfection
Depends on the man, I suppose
Not really.
Well, maybe Vladimir Putin, but he’s literally a war criminal.
Tomato / toh-mah-toe.
They are both bad people who got to where they’re at by exploiting people in one way or the other.
Aside of their nationality, how would you consider them different?
So we’ve established that there are some people you’d be happy to see gunned down, we’re now just quibbling over who qualifies.
I wasn’t being serious. Someone like Putin should be in jail.
I don’t support the death penalty.
Indeed, having some disconnected powerful authority figure handing out decisions on who should live and who should die is a pretty repulsive concept.
Yeah, if anyone should be shot, it would be that kind of person of course.

Disagree there. The world would benefit from a good number of people being unceremoniously air dropped over point nemo.
Good for you, Bono. This fucker had it coming no matter how you slice it.

So we agree there are candidates, we just need to negotiate on where the line is.
Denying life saving medical care seems like a good enough place to start
Meh, I don’t feel bad if someone lynched hitler
Edit: Not to say the CEO was as bad as hitler, just to demonstrate the point.
There’s always unknown consequences.

France seems pretty chill today, actually. Relaxed people that aren’t afraid to unify and protest when they feel the government isn’t on their side.
The appeal of Le Pen to them is worrisome but humanity as a whole seems susceptible to right-wing populism, unfortunately.
Lizard.

*Limited
It is for every person denied healthcare by UHC, and to a smaller extent anyone who’s ever dealt with an insurance company in general
Society is deteriorating this is what it looks like…
When CEO cheers at his pay check after denying claims of sick people WHO PAID FOR THIS SERVICE, do you ever find yourself saying:
Now think about it… why not?
It’s not a good place for society to be, I quite agree. Yet here we are.
There are probably ways we could change things so that vigilantes gunning down health insurance CEOs isn’t considered a reasonable option.
They won’t and we have no voice.
And so, as I said, here we are. In a place where vigilantes gunning down health insurance CEOs is considered reasonable.
We would need a lot more philanthropic billionaires for that to happen.
Actually the more I think of those two words together the more it seems like an oxymoron.
If you gave a fuck about people you wouldn’t underpay them enough to earn a billion dollars off their labour.
