First corporations were people, now they’re kings.

There would be zero response is she had literally told another person she was going to kill them, in fact law enforcement would simply dismiss the event as not a legitimate threat.

In our corporatocracy/oligarchy even repeating words used during a crime is a serious crime worthy of imprisonment when our corporate overlords are involved.

Boston reportedly told detectives she used the phrase “because it’s what is in the news right now,” and that she had learned of the phrase due to the UnitedHealthcare homicide.

However, Boston added that she does not own any firearms and “was not a danger to anyone,” police said.

Boston was charged with threats to conduct a mass shooting or an act of terrorism, according to the affidavit.

“My client is 42, married mother of three. Never had any criminal charges or convictions. May you release her on her own recognizance,” her attorney Jim Headley said to a judge during her first appearance in court. However, the judge set her bond at $100,000, stating, “I do find that the bond of $100,000 is appropriate considering the status of our country at this point.”

3 Words that will get you charged with terrorism.

While denying people healthcare makes you a “hero” because you weren’t born ultra wealthy.

This fucking timeline…

Directed against insurance companies

ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NOT. It’s what insurance companies use against all of us! Clearly she was just telling them they’re next because of the golden rule. They’re gonna be denied just the same as her.
