Wealthy, white girls, Sophia? Who is “WE”??
The fundamental difference between Luigi and the average American is that Luigi truly felt he was entitled to health care. He was so affronted by the injustice that he went postal over it.
Most Americans are either too demoralized or too cynical to believe they can do more than yell at a call center worker when claims are denied.
So, totally unrelated, but like hypothetically, how illegal would it be to start printing guns and giving them to people with terminal illnesses who were denied coverage? No reason in particular
You can’t manufacture a gun for somebody else unless you’re a registered gun manufacturer. You can only make one for yourself. You can hypothetically sell/give a printed gun to someone if when you made it you didn’t intend on selling or distributing it, however many states require you to transfer that firearm via a dealer.
You would have to give/loan your cancer patient a 3d printer and maybe suggest a URL. They would have to construct the firearm themselves without help.
You worry about the legality of printing a gun when you want to give it to someone to use for murder?
There’s an old saying, “Never commit a misdemeanor in the middle of your felony.”
Organized crime worries about legal issues all the time, and their whole purpose is crime.
Limiting liability, and plausible deniability, is a cornerstone of literally getting away with murder.
That’s not how 3DP2A works. The “thing” that has to be registered is the polymer frame (on a semiautomatic handgun). That polymer frame is at least what gets printed. So if you’re printing a handgun, there’s no registerable purchase.
Frankly, it would be an objectively good thing if there were a trend of Luigi-esque incidents, because the only thing entrenched power structures will respond to is violence, and Luigi’s methods did not leave much room for collateral damage.
Cool, go assassinate another CEO if you actually care.
Posting on the internet does nothing.
Yeah, there might be some copycats, but I’m dubious. This reignited the healthcare and wealth gap conversation, but that’s about it. Nothing meaningful will come from this in regards to our legislature taking action to help the lower and middle classes out.
This guy is likely to go to jail for a long time. Law enforcement spared no expense tracking him down, catching him within days even after making a relatively clean getaway after a fairly well executed plan. Not many people have nothing to lose and/or have no fear of those kinds of consequences.
In my opinion, until around 30% of our country is on the verge of starvation, unemployment, and/or homelessness, there won’t be a mass movement that chooses to take forceful action. And even if that occurs, you can guarantee all the fancy police state surveillance they’ve put in place over the last 20-some-odd years will get dialed up to 11.
Fairly well-executed plan? Dude was eating in public in the same jacket he wore that day.
Not to mention going without the mask at Starbucks and keeping the manifesto and weapon.
He wasn’t trying to seriously evade capture. But I think he was close to having a chance.
And yet the only reason he was caught as soon as he was, was because a McDonald’s employee wanted $50,000 (and didn’t even end up getting the money anyway).
I didn’t say it was a flawless plan or even great, just that he did evade authorities for days despite the insane amount of resources NYPD poured into finding him.
It’s very strange. He had a ghost gun and all those IDs, and then went to get a McChicken.
I think he got cold feet when he realized he might have to stay on the run for the rest of his life.
