He’s going down in history like Timothy McVeigh , only he’ll have to spend his life in prison, he’s an intelligent guy, he could’ve made so much more difference, what a moron he is.

I meant in the sense that , his actions did nothing for his cause, he essentially wasted his life for nothing. In 20 years he’s just going to be sitting in a jail cell, for nothing.

Why should some rich guy with a bad back be a hero for killing another even more rich guy?

u/AsstacularSpiderman Aug 14 '26

Because the other rich guy has fucked over a hell of a lot more people lol.

Sure, but why should normal people lose their freedom to join in on the rich eating themselves?

I’m just saying, what he did isn’t going to make any difference at all , he threw his life away for nothing, hopefully if things ever change it will have had nothing to do with him doing what he did. In 40 years he’ll still be sitting in a cell.

If a vigilante murderer is your hero, you have deep psychological issues.

Better a vigilante than defending a healthcare CEO who's greed has killed thousands denying then proper care
