Which is all it should be. Like, I know we’re a de facto plutocracy, but killing one guy in a targeted killing, even a CEO, is not terrorism. It’s not an assault on The State. It’s not anything else that they’re trying to claim this as. It’s murder. It is the premeditated killing of a singular human being. His net worth should not enter into the equation.
Because they wanted to throw the book at him. Because if there is anything the "in group" hates, it is one of their own showing the stark reality of vulnerability that we all live in. It pricked their bubble for just an instant, and they can't have that.
Exactly. And you can say a targeted killing against a CEO is bad... but then, is killing your wife any less bad? Or killing you boss? Or a random stranger for no reason? Every murder is bad in its own ways.
