That's all well and good, but don't just sit back and hope that healthcare magically improves, or that other healthcare CEO's start getting their life claims denied.
Take the current well of anger, and point it towards politicians that will actually fight for free healthcare. It's not only a public health emergency, but also a "crime" emergency, and one of safety.
It's easy to sit behind a keyboard and laugh. It's slightly harder to sit behind a keyboard and email your local reps. It's again slightly harder to rally at your local reps office hours or town halls for free healthcare.
Nah let's shoot more CEOs. Let's frighten the fuck out of executives until they bend to our wills.
That won't really work. They'll surround themselves with private security, stop going to public places, and if things get bad enough pass gun control laws to disarm the proles.
Random acts of violence will never bend them to our wills. We need to be organized.
You are absolutely right, random acts of violence will result in more problems. That's why: "You know, if you had one day, like one real rough, nasty day, one rough hour, and I mean real rough, the word will get out and it will end immediately. End immediately. You know, it'll end immediately."
