Absolutely gonna get downvoted to hell for this but he killed someone. Murder is a crime. He’s a criminal. Whether you think the person he killed deserved it or not is irrelevant, giving a free pass because of that sets an extremely dangerous precedent

I understand people are tense about healthcare and sometimes become emotional but come on man. Do better

Allowing countless to die due to denied insurance claims is already a pretty fucking dangerous precendent going on for years where our leaders did nothing but allow it to happen. We’re pretty far past “dangerous precendent.”

I love how you completely ignored my point and just went back to health insurance, you people are unsavable

So some random person, can become judge jury executioner and kill whoever they want isnt a dangerous precedent? So if Luigi had killed a homeless man instead of brian thompson you wouldn’t be celebrating it right? That’s what im talking about

I like how you completely ignored the reason why all this has happened so you can nitpick on an argument where you barely have a leg to stand on.

Health insurance companies are already judge, jury, and executioner. Thousands of people die every year because they can’t afford health insurance and I guarantee I’m not the only one in here who’s had family die that way.

Correct, no one would support Luigi for murdering a homeless person. Support for Luigi is a social proxy. People don’t feel like they can change the system peacefully anymore. When that happens, you’re right, an angry mob can become judge jury and executioner. It is up to the system to reform itself or fail, not the masses to calm down.

By definition of the word, yes.

For all other purposes, no.

Not even by the definition. He’s accused of murder. He hasn’t been proven guilty.

No, he’s accused of killing someone.

Accused with evidence that has a contradictory history over the course of the manhunt.

But he’s not a criminal until he’s convicted by a jury of his peers.

There’s no way you think it’s possible for him to come out of this right? The dude is either going to jail for life or getting the chair

You know how a trial works, right?

He still has to stand trial and be convicted by a trial of his peers.

Even if the evidence is overwhelming, the jury still has to issue a verdict.

It would hardly be the first time there’s a hung jury or even a nullified jury.

You need to learn how the justice system actually works, instead of watching law and order.

I don’t know if it is morally objectionable to kill a man who is directly responsible for the deaths and suffering of thousands. The murdered piece of shit bragged about using AI to deny claims and he was responsible for the highest claim denials in the industry just so he could make a buck. Fuck that guy. I’m glad he is dead and Luigi is a hero if he did it.

I never said he’s a bad person, just that he’s a criminal.

Absolutely sickening comment and its insane that this is SOMEHOW the ““morally correct”” opinion to have on this platform

Somehow you are missing the violence that Thompson inflicted on all of his thousands of victims? Maybe you are ok with that because your moral compass is dictated by the state? Or is it ok because they are peasants? Or maybe you are ok with sick people needlessly suffering so this shit eater can have more boat money?

We prefer to stop people like Brian Thompson, whose killed and tortured tens of millions by weaponizing boring insurance policies, peacefully.

For the sake of those tens of millions, it’s going to stop. Let’s push for the peaceful option, with the understanding that it will be stopping one way or another. Hopefully the peaceful way works, and we’ll keep doing everything we can to ensure that it does.

While you’re shilling for a murderer, that’e some level 9000 cognitive dissidance that even lunduke would be proud of

I disagree with you here. Many people already fought and pushed for the peaceful option in the last decades. Also just for clarification: this isn’t a struggle for wealth or glory - this is a fight about literal human life’s. And I will be honest with you, if one person who has committed terrible actions dies, but as a result many more people can live (see the Bluecross reversal), it is difficult for me to say that it is a cognitive dissonance to fight for the peaceful option and to accept that violence may be necessary here.

I’m not gonna say that murder is right or anything. But, people in power can and often will threaten other people with their lives and get away with it. Elon Musk is a good example of that. Yes, we don’t know have any proof of him killing people, but he can casually and “as a joke” say that other people should be assassinated.

The problem isn’t that a CEO was killed, the problem is that it has gotten to that point, where so many people get killed overall, and the big powerful people don’t give a fuck. But when suddenly someone “important” gets killed, then it’s a big problem.

It’s just patently absurd. It’s an angry mob. They probably didn’t even know the victim. They could turn on you, me, or each other.

I get the sentiment, and yes rule of law is what we should strive for.

But if somebody murders an active serial killer, my internal desire for practical improvements to human well being keeps me from getting too upset about it.

And yes it’s illegal, and if the system is working as intended, the assassin will go to prison. Maybe the people intervene via jury nullification, maybe not. But if conditions are bad enough, individuals can choose to live as a hero in prison rather than as a desperate anonymous poor person.

I don’t want to see children lose their parents even if their parent is a scumbag CEO, but I want human civilization to heal and flourish even more.
