Weird fucking story tbh. Apparently the shooter got CTE from playing football in college and decided to shoot up the NFL offices. Got off on the wrong floor and blasted some of the worst capitalists in America instead.

[-] Dessa@hexbear.net 83 points 5 days ago

Granted, had he gotten off in the right floor, he would have also killed some of the worst capitalists in America

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 55 points 5 days ago

Pick a floor any floor, they're all the correct floor for some shooting!

[-] GiantSpoonWielder@lemmygrad.ml 53 points 5 days ago

I'm not convinced by anything two pigs say about the events. They have an interest in depoliticizing and obscuring the motivations for violence against the ruling class. Maybe a happy accident, but maybe not an accident at all. In either case the world is better off with fewer of these leaches.

Divine providence if I’ve ever seen it

[-] CommCat@hexbear.net 40 points 5 days ago

critical support to CTE

LePatner helped organize a trip to Israel last year for senior women on Wall Street

i-cant

she used to work for Goldman Sachs too. a truly worthless leech upon society who dedicated her life to the upwards transfer of wealth, and to making housing unaffordable. rot in piss

[-] culpritus@hexbear.net 14 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

While looking into her a bit, I came across the term 'humanitarian zionism'.

anyway packwatch

[-] robotElder2@hexbear.net 79 points 5 days ago

Are we finally entering an era of mass shootings at people who actually deserve it?

[-] Monk3brain3@hexbear.net 52 points 5 days ago

I really do hope so. The elites did nothing when schoolchildren were and are getting shot daily and now every psycho has a mini armory. At least its finally being put to good use

[-] halfpipe@hexbear.net 28 points 5 days ago

Ironically, US mass shooters switching their targets away from schools and walmarts and towards office buildings and institutions will absolutely cause congress to start pushing heavy gun control laws.

[-] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 11 points 5 days ago

That being said, also keep speaking ill of the pigs. It just might get hate speech and hate groups banned as well.

[-] Monk3brain3@hexbear.net 10 points 5 days ago

That also crossed my mind. At least school children won't risk their lives to get educated

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 27 points 5 days ago

Going to be cautiously optimistic. Let's hope this all starts giving some pause to these ghouls gleefully ruining the world.

[-] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 23 points 5 days ago

I think it may depend upon how the public reacts to this shooting.

Honestly, if they react the way they did with UnitedHealth, despite the condemnation from the media, then I would completely expect to see more capitalists getting capped. Shooters are usually deprived of social relations, etc. and would be desperate to be seen as heroes by the public, which would be just a pure :waow:.

[-] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 9 points 5 days ago

From what I heard so far I think this one was chance not targeted at this person. I'd hold off until we get more info on the motive

But either way sounds like one less shithead

[-] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 12 points 5 days ago

Yeah, that's what people mentioned here too. So, sounds like the motive was unrelated/missing but the outcome was acceptable.

Maybe the motive will throw people off, since United had a vengeance element. In which case, I think we could tentatively say USians approve of revenge killings of CEOs.

Two senior law enforcement officers said the suspect was targeting the National Football League’s office, but ended up on the floor of another company by mistake.

I prefer to call it a happy little accident

Dear shooter, may you reincarnate as a butterfly or something else cool 🦋🦋🦋

[-] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 33 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

spend a few lifetimes chilling as a deep sea fish or something out of harm's way, and come back out once we've achieved communism

[-] LeeeroooyJeeenkiiins@hexbear.net 18 points 5 days ago

god no life as any kind of fish is fucking horrifying

[-] MayoPete@hexbear.net 11 points 5 days ago

IDK whale life sounds fun. Of course humans have to ruin it with fishing and filling the oceans with all sorts of plastics and waste :/

[-] LeeeroooyJeeenkiiins@hexbear.net 11 points 5 days ago

Whales aren't fish though. But tbh the exact same reasoning applies- parasites. I might be wrong but my understanding is essentially nothing in the ocean escapes them. You're constantly swimming through a larval soup. And almost all of them are horrifying, like that isopod that eats and then effectively replaces tongues. Or how Greenland sharks all have copepods chewing through their eyes that make them blind.

She was also a Zionist? What are the odds of that?!

[-] bennieandthez@lemmygrad.ml 28 points 5 days ago

like 99%? you won't find anyone remotely anti-zionist in the upper echelons of Blackstone of all places lol

[-] CthulhusIntern@hexbear.net 40 points 5 days ago

How are there different evil real estate companies named Blackrock and Blackstone? What kind of Wario/Waluigi shit is this?

[-] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 14 points 5 days ago

I thought Blackstone became Blackrock? They're actually different?

[-] Carl@hexbear.net 17 points 5 days ago

They're both investment firms founded in the 80s but by different people.

We live in a shitty Ridley Scott movie without any of the cool aesthetics.

[-] sewer_rat_420@hexbear.net 39 points 5 days ago

So was this collateral damage, considering he was supposedly targeting the NFL?

Regardless, man goes on shooting rampage at building full of evil people and an evil person died. Shocker

Rest in peace to the security guard and the shooter, who were both working class.

[-] stink@lemmygrad.ml 56 points 5 days ago

Sec guard was an offduty cop

[-] purpleworm@hexbear.net 33 points 5 days ago

If you're working security at that high a level, you kind of need to be viewed as a collaborator.

[-] sewer_rat_420@hexbear.net 26 points 5 days ago

I was trying to give some benefit of the doubt and pictured someone like the security guard at my local CVS and makes near minimum wage. But probably right, and if he was an off duty cop then definitely right that he is a collaborator.

officer-down

[-] mayo_cider@hexbear.net 34 points 5 days ago

We all need a little bit of adventure in our lives, not everything has to be for the revolution

Buy that last minute ticket to Ibiza, drop a tab of acid before the job interview, shoot up a real estate office, order your coffee black
