      NGL if there were copycat crimes targetting other health insurance CEOs, most people would probably herald the vigilantes.

      Yeah murder is bad and all but these guys are responsible for so much death and pain and suffering for making a profit.

      Killer here is a legit antihero. Like Dexter Morgan. In the earlier seasons.

      Really I’m just picturing the scene in Dogma where Matt Daemon and Ben Affleck drop in on a Mooby’s board meeting and kill nearly all of them.

      Makes sense. 9mm is protected under the second amendment. And our incoming VP says that shootings are a way of life.

      It’s unfortunate that in Canada they have a handgun freeze that means all current handgun owners in Canada cannot get new guns, and if you get a firearms permit, even a restricted one, you can no longer buy new handguns.

      There are alternatives… but I am not talking.

        A pipe with a nail I’d all you would need. Shit. Humanity overthrew leaders and governments without firearms for most of our history. A few CEOs aren’t the governments. So…? I am not implying any violence should be taken against any single persons. There are limits to freedom of speech (imo).

          Yeah but these days you can do a lot better, LutySMGs, p80 frames, ender5 and PLA+, 80% lowers, the works.

          (I can talk because it’s legal where I am, ha!)

              Oh I’m not advocating violence, IMO violence is only for proportional self defense from immanent threats. I am for people being armed so as to do that if (“Bob” forbid) the need arises, so long as they themselves don’t hurt others outside of self defense. I’m also for building/tinkering, and target shooting, etc.

              By “I can talk about it” I just mean the RCMP won’t knock on my door to haul me off to some Yukon gulag for posting about it, because even if the ATF did show up “bruh idk what to tell you, you (and the supreme court) say it’s legal” is a pretty rock solid defense lol.
