According to police, Charles Smith, 27, entered the Walmart at 1955 S. Stapley Dr. on Dec. 19 intending to film pranks for social media platforms.
Instead, police said Smith grabbed a can of Hot Shot Ultra Bed Bug and Flea Killer from a shelf without paying for it and then sprayed the pesticide on various vegetables, fruit and rotisserie chickens that were available for purchase.
Smith recorded his face, the pesticide can and the act of him spraying its contents. He later posted the recording online.
Now, this could qualify as terrorism.
Not a single murder of a psychopathic indirect mass murderer CEO.
What political cause or ideology do you think this was done in support of?
I mean, I get your point…but not every story has to be compared to other stories. In this case Luigi. I also see other people bring up politics during stories that have nothing to do with politics.
And I wonder why people do that. Why talk about an unrelated topic when there’s already an interesting topic?
I guess it’s not as bad as reddit, where they would instead just post a random unrelated quote from the office, but still…
It’s quite simply what’s on people’s minds right now. It was a major event, it outlines some of the systemic inequalities, and people are interested in the subject.
Yeah.
It’s also just fun to talk about because it probably makes US healthcare CEOs nervous.
After all they’ve done to the rest of us, it’s nice to think of them feeling nervous. If they’re not going to feel our grief, or appropriate remorse, or empathy, at least they can feel nervous.
It’s a current event being compared to another current event. One about a murder, and the other potentially attempted homicide, depending on the pesticide used. Seems to be pretty related to me, regardless of any politics.
Just because they call it a “prank”, and the media uses the same shitty term, that doesn’t make spraying pesticides on food for unsuspecting citizens to grab any less dangerous.
One has a potential villain above the law and a moral purpose in removing him, or is at least a sympathetic figure striking out at one of the many causes of our misery, and who we can applaud. There is a root cause in desperate need of fixing but corporate voices in search of profit who are somehow more important than people’s lives
The other is threatening people’s lives and health by contaminating food, and dismissing as a “prank” for clicks. He needs plenty of time in jail and to forfeit whatever cash those clicks might bring. There is no morality play, no political difference, only exploiting the worst of humanity for cash
What was the political motive behind Luigi YAHOOO-ing the ceo?
I would recommend you reading his manifesto as long as you can, its not long but its being taken down from pretty much everwhere
It’s been publicallly stated neither him nor his parents were customers of that specific insurance company, so the manifesto is likely fake.
Doubt many CEOs shop at Walmart, otherwise it would totally be terrorism charges.
you’d be surprised. A fairly large number of them are quite miserly, even in their personal lives.
