    While law enforcement does not believe Thompson’s killing is part of a trend targeting health executives, the attack underscores the vulnerability of these high-profile executives.

    Yes, very vulnerable people. I mean, not as vulnerable as an elderly cancer patient who’s been denied care, or a working class family driven to bankruptcy by medical debt, but, you know vulnerable to righteous retribution. Except, they’re not really even vulnerable to that, since they have the resources to pay for private security.

      Judging from the pay I would say CEO should be one of the most dangerous jobs. That’s the only way the pay would make sense. Let’s make it so!

      You and your friends better batten down the hatches, because when it hits, you’re all gonna wonder how you ever thought you could live so large and leave so little for the rest of us.

        Weren’t the revolutionaries following Bane in that story portrayed as the villains? Because of how absurdly rich this Thompson asshole had become, his murder has struck me, from the perspective of his sons, to be more like the killing of Thomas Wayne in the universe your quote is from. Hopefully we don’t end up with a shit version of Batman, but right now the killer could be more like Joe Chill

        Let’s not warn or threaten, actually; it spoils the element of surprise.

        Ideally, the enemy should never see it coming.
