Well. Others on this thread say that he WAS worthy of execution.
And with the derangement of the Left, I agree this is no surprise this is going on, after all, they tried to murder President Trump twice, and no doubt more attempts will happen.
That is is not surprising is not in itself a surprise. What is surprising is that people, even on this website, support what was murderously done.
We are generally conservatives on this website, and most conservatives believe in the rule of law under constitutional guidelines, not the rule of law of one man who decides to be judge, jury, and executioner and walks up in the middle of the street and plants a bullet in the back of someone’s head.
I disagree that I have to take it from the “other direction” discostu. I think taking it from the law and order perspective, and the underlying constitutional perspective has far more worth.
Especially in a discussion of this type, on this subject.
I may abhor the decisions by the CEO (which as I state, were NOT made in a vacuum, but were decided on via consensus) and may, in my heart, wish for the bad things to happen to Brian Thompson who was in the eyes of many “responsible” for the death of my loved one, but I wholly reject the open and pre-meditated murder that was done to Brian Thompson.
I’m not gonna disagree with them either. This is the problem with the world the CEOs have made. THEY have created an us or them situation. THEY have created salary boards to make sure they all make a lot of money. THEY setup corporate cultures that revolve around layoffs. THEY have decided that corporation that delivers they least at the most profit is the right corporation, even if what they’re supposed to be delivering is keeping alive. THEY have decided their should just hoard assets, like housing, to drive the price up, don’t worry about how homelessness is increasing.
There is NO law and order in this country. Just look at Epstein. The rich are not accountable. He got busted multiple times before it was finally so egregious they just had to throw him in jail. And some of this stuff shouldn’t be against the law. I don’t want the government declaring how much a CEO can make. I want the CEOs to recognize there’s a logical moral cap to how many times what their average employer salary they should get. But it’s not the government’s business. So no, law and order will NOT solve this. The CEOs either get it or they don’t. And since we’ve been talking about CEO salaries being way out of whack for 30 years, it’s clear they don’t get it. Maybe they’ll start listening.
This is the world they made. And now they have to audacity to be shocked that a growing percentage of the population is thinking “or we could just shoot the bastards”. Again, they went to liberal colleges, they read right books, they know what inspires the revolution, they know who’s first against the wall. It’s nobody’s fault but their own that they’ve decided that’s what they want to happen.
