Things that made you laugh today (Political Version)

I think it is a bit different. I don't think overcharging on Chipotle is causing people to die due to not getting Doctor prescribed medication. And lets not act like these people are freeloaders, they've been paying premiums for years.

Not saying it was the right thing to do, hell, even Hitler would have gotten a trial, but I can understand it.

I'm not saying it's not different.. but it's all over my Instagram feed every morning.. scrolling names of the CEOs of other companies... how this CEO raised the prices of food "You know what to do".. etc..

Oh, yeah, I've got a few of those. Some people are trying to push a full-on class warfare. It's retarded.

Lara Trump will step down as co-chair of the Republican National Committee as she considers a number of potential options with her father-in-law, President-elect Donald Trump, set to return to the White House.

Among those possibilities is replacing Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, whom Trump tapped to be the next secretary of state. If Rubio is confirmed, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will choose who takes the seat through the remainder of Rubio’s term, which expires in 2026.

“It is something I would seriously consider,” she told The Associated Press in an interview.

More...

In 2021, Lara Trump was telling people that she was a resident of North Carolina so that she could run for a vacant Senate seat there.

Yeah, that is stupid. I also don't agree with him being murdered, just saying I can see how people could get there. Like I said, do something that hurts my wife and I have no idea what I might do. Probably nothing because I don't think I'm a murderer, but I guess it depends on how egregious the person or entity who did it was.

My time working in then Parish Jail, there are a lot of people that did things they never thought they'd do. You just have to be in the situation I guess.

The number of leftists who claim "This guy deserved to be assassinated" is honestly surprising to me.

Like when did they just become so disconnected with human lives?

I get it: No one hates insurance more than I do. I don't get it, I don't understand it, I don't like it. This was never more highlighted than during the last 2 hurricanes that struck the Tampa area. 3 homes.. all had hurricane insurance.. 1 home got TRIPLE the amount that was needed to rebuild. One barely got enough to cover the repairs.. and one got nothing because their insurance company claimed it was caused by flooding (from the hurricane) and not the hurricane itself.

No one hates insurance more than I do.

But no one deserves to be assassinated on the street because they work for an insurance company.

Some of you fuckers need some morals in your life.

"You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Parkbandit again."

Damn it! 100% correct.

[Suppressed Poet]

I'll start with by saying I have plenty of morals and don't *think* I'd kill the CEO of some shady insurance company - UNLESS - my wife died because of their policies. Then I have no idea what I'd do.

I can see how someone could be run around by the insurance company he made policy at to the point that they placed all the blame on this individual, hunted him down and killed him.

Talk about the morals of the CEO now, and his AI that was wrong 90% of the time. Talk about how his company denies claims at a 2x or 3x rate above the next worst denier. He was no saint.

I think people are jumping to conclusions before knowing the facts / evidence of the crime & applying hypothetical situations to this real world event.

We don’t yet know the identity or motives of the murderer. We don’t yet know to what extent this was premeditated / planned. It could be a disgruntled employee, or a hired hitman, or a person that had a family member denied for medical care. We simply don’t know yet. It takes time to gather the evidence and complete an investigation.

In the event that the shooter did have a very strong motivation to murder that man and the victim is in fact a vile greedy piece of shit, it’s still cold blooded murder. The public may sympathize with the criminal as a martyr, but he should still be held accountable for breaking the law. Instead of murdering the CEO on the streets, it would be much more honorable for a man to dedicate his life to making a positive change in our healthcare system the legal way. Murder is for pussies.

The CEO had, apparently, some shady shit going on. He was involved with a Federal lawsuit for insider trading, and who knows what else his fingers may have been in. It could have absolutely nothing to do with insurance denials, I agree.

Also, you are against the guy that killed the man in the airport that raped and kidnapped his son? He is a pussy?

[Suppa Hobbit Mage]

I think murder is totally reasonable in some situations. I've never said the murderer in this case should be seen as a hero nor that he shouldn't pay for his crimes, either.

Like the example Gelston just gave, I'd say justified, and the father who did it should get some community service.

I am against murder, yes. I assume you are referring to Gary Plauche. As a father I can sympathize with that man, but that doesn’t justify his actions of taking the law into his own hands & murdering that person in the airport. Only God can judge on the morality of that situation, but he should have and did face legal consequences. Vigilante justice is not real justice.
