Healthcare companies, especially insurance companies, make a living out of denying claims so that people go bankrupt and/or die from denied claims. It’s unethical and downright evil, but they do it anyway. It would be hard not to hate the CEOs of those companies. After all, medical expenses is the leading cause of bankruptcies in USA.

Important to point out this is usually after they’ve been paying for that insurance their whole life.

MSNBC said on Saturday that police examining the bag and its contents found a jacket and Monopoly money, but no firearm.

Thats a plant. They aren’t as close as they say they are. Also 60k as a reward for betraying your entire class? Lmao you better pay kingmaker money.

I like how one article said: “The net is tightening,” New York City Mayor Eric Adams said Saturday.

No, I don’t think it is, but keep saying that.

The NYPD’s working theory of what pistol was used doesn’t even make sense either. These cops are clueless.

They appear to be clueless, so those with a clue may out themselves.

Guy should just surrender and go to trial. I bet they will find it hard to get 12 person to find him guilty.

IIRC, Snowden wasn’t eligible for a jury trial, because he worked for the NSA and, so it they were pushing for a secret court-martial trial. Who knows if Snowden would have actually done it, but I remember he said he would return to the US if it were a jury trial.

Juries are specifically selected to avoid people capable of critical thinking, and people knowledgeable about jury nullification.

If it goes to trial his chances are slim. If he knows what’s good from him, he’s already in a foreign country with no extradition treaty, or halfway across the country in a remote section of wilderness laying low for the next few months.

Fuck off. If he surrendered he will be killed. There is no way the billionaire class would allow a peasant like us to try to harm them and survive. They will also demonize him and drag him through the mud and claim he is a pedophile rapist who killed for pleasure.

They gotta prove it was him. Also it sucks. Really hard. Like gun charges? What happened? How did they figure? If I did something with a gun like that I’d have to do my best to get rid of the gun (disassemble and destroy the parts first).
