    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.

    As a trans person in the US this sentence makes me want to scream. Can’t imagine what it must be like to be vulnerable to being murdered 🙄

      School children throughout the US being told that gun violence is “a fact of life” are also deeply unimpressed by this statement from the cops

    This bulletin perfectly exemplifies everything wrong with the status quo. The cops are basically saying “We’re aware that everyone hates these rich fucks, so the rich fucks should barricade themselves behind additional layers of security & continue their evil and destructive pursuit of profit. The police will hurt anyone who tries to hurt the wealthy.”. How about evaluating why the entire country is outraged? Oh, because you already know why, and just don’t care.

      At what point in time does a first count as part of a trend?

    law enforcement is on high alert as calls for threats against health care executives and their families become “widespread,”

    Last I checked it was only the executive in question who became “widespread” if people are threatening families that’s kinda fucked up but this just reads like pigs embellishing.
