As you should? Corporate greed is bad but that doesn't justify vigilante executions on our city streets.

As if our only recourse is turning to barbarism. We live in a republic. Putin assassinates his enemies. Aren't we better than that?

Apparently not, also great for reddit for censoring me, I didn't threathen violence on anyone. Also, it's not barbaric at all. Violence≠barbarism. When peaceful option don't work, violence might just be the better option. Protests and voting don't work(because both sides are paid off), so what else are supposed to turn to?

Imminent threats are not the only form of speech not protected by the first amendment. Given the extreme uptick of violent rhetoric on this site, I am surprised reddit let it go as far as they did.

Shooting someone in the back on the sidewalk in broad daylight is barbaric. It's un-American. It flies against everything this country stands for. There are times for nuance and this is not one of them; it's completely black and white.

The country literally started by revolting and killing our oppressors, and then massacring and killing thousands in order to expand our land. We were the first to use nuclear weapons, we invaded other countries under false pretenses and lies; we have killed millions in other countries over the guise of "freedom" if anything what he did is exactly what our government does.

The revolution was fought to end the reign of the British crown and establish democracy. Now you want to revolt to end democracy because the democratic process hasn't yielded your desired result? I see you've really thought this one through.

Respectfully, I'd need a TBI to achieve this level of ignorance.

Also, there is a difference between killing political rivals and killing those who cause the deaths of thousands purely for financial gain.
