    Wow, I really hope this isn’t the moment it starts and a bunch of copy cats spring up targeting all the parasites. That would be terrible.

      With all the suicides caused by extreme wealth inequality it’s a good thing that suicidal people don’t kill a CEO before killing themselves. That would be tragic.

      Bombs being thrown into boardrooms is certainly something nobody wants.

        The preffered nomenclature is:

          Bad example. That is a CEO killing his board of directors.

      The fact that the man got away (and had a silencer) goes to show that it’s more rich targeting the rich. Likely not a peasant. The billion-dollar question is: Why?

        Suppressors, like anything else gun related, aren’t that hard to come by. You can even make your own pretty easily. They won’t hold up over 1000 rounds at the range but they would be more than sufficient for something like this.

        You’re right that we don’t know why this happened. I’m just saying I don’t find the possibility that a suppressor was involved to be particularly indicative of anything other than the fact that the shooter wanted to be harder to catch, which yeah, you would expect to be the case.

          Yep. A few hundred bucks for an inexpensive one, and a pretty good one costs in the neighborhood of a mid tier PC gaming rig. Theoretically you have to pay a tax and do some paperwork to get one, but you’ve already mentioned how easy they are to make.

        Maybe a bunch of folks decided they’d rather hire a hitman than pay their deductibles.

          I was reading about how it cost this family $100k to keep their child alive and they were paying out of pocket with gofundme because the insurance rejected them.

          And I did think to myself… What can you do with that 100k to get revenge?

        The robot dogs are just pompous posturing by rich idiots, they don’t do anything that a cheapo CCTV camera couldn’t do.
