Which, hopefully, he can use some of that for his attorney. That's the problem with our dystopia. The poor are far too powerless to take matters into their own hands. They don't have access to 3D printers, let alone ammunition and the academic rigour that wealth can provide to plot something like this. And I'm not talking the whole "getting away from it part. The hit was calculated.
That's why the elite are pressing so hard against this. If more of their own (but lesser) become sympathetic to the larger population, then they are truly fucked.
Revolutions need resources. We're in a society where the resources are so well controlled and industrialized that every little bit is tracked. It's up to the people with any power to do something to do it.
That's the message the elite doesnt want to spread. They don't want people that have basic human empathy to turn against their handlers.
