This bit of news does not bother me at all. I wonder if this will become a trend now

Awh noo.. The shooter got away :(

The shooter fled the scene on foot and then on a New York Citi Bike, Tisch said. He was last seen in Central Park. As of Wednesday morning, no arrests had been made, police said. Crime Stoppers was offering a $10,000 reward for information.

Be careful talking about legal things that can happen as MODS WILL ERASE YOUR COMMENTS ABOUT IT, and state it is against TOS even though it is not a call for violence, not an attack on users or groups, discrimination against anyone, isn't doxing, has nothing to do with privacy, is not a system disruption, is not illegal content, is not violent content, is not misinformation, nor is it doing harm. JURY NULLIFICATION IS NOT AGAINST TOS nor IS saying TEMPORARY INSANITY PLEA against TOS. IF MODS DO DELETE this please tell me which part of TOS any of this goes against? Edit: jury nullification is : "refusal of a jury to find a defendant guilty even with established guilt, because a conclusion that conviction would be contrary to some other concept of justice." Temporary insanity plea means: the defendant was mentally unstable when the crime took place. None of these endorse violence or are saying what the person did is correct. It is just saying that in this instance the defendant shouldn't be punished for their actions.

Violence is bad. The shooter is probably a hero for other things they did in life..

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 weeks ago

What part of anything I have said is about violence? It is about the legal battle that will take place.

I don't think anybody deserves such a fate, but it does seem he was asking for it at least a little.

I mean, I thought we were gonna eat the rich, but this will do.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 weeks ago

It's already dead, we might as well.

I'm relatively sure that the shooter will turn out to be someone who had a loved one suffer and die because they were refused health care coverage. This may turn out to be only the first of similar incidents.

Isn't this basically the plot of one of the Saw movies? Maybe minus some steps.

Is the shooter a tech bro or photographer? He’s wearing a peak design everyday backpack: https://www.peakdesign.com/products/everyday-backpack?Size=20L&Color=Ash

No, they're a mystery and we'll never know their identity so we should stop trying to find out.

Let’s be honest here. This is probably the only way a ceo would ever be punished for crimes against the poor in America. Unfortunately this will probably lead to the increased militarisation of ceo security teams (and the police) rather than a recognition of why someone would want to dome a ceo in the first place.

this will probably lead to the increased militarisation of ceo security teams

People can start going after their family

There is an uper limit to how much that kind of security can help.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I’m more concerned about the harm they’ll cause on their ineffectual path. Militarised police are already a disaster. Now imagine the absolute dystopian nightmare that is private hyper militarised police that are accountable only to the billionaires oligarchs they protect walking around and mercing anyone who looks ‘suspicious’ with no accountability.
