I don't even give a shit if it was a targeted hit for reasons totally unrelated to his ghoulishness. Uncritical support for murdering insurance CEOs.
I saw the full footage of the hit on CNN and dude badass, cold ass mofo. The gun even jammed and he cleared out the jam and plugged that guy even some more.
I can't seem to find the footage on CNN's page

Please excuse NYPOST. @Frank@hexbear.net mentioned in a post https://hexbear.net/post/4036316?scrollToComments=false this might be a slide lock pistol, I thought the gun jammed and they were clearing it.
I actually found it on Twitter.
Damn dude even had a silencer, he clearly practiced with that thing. And he walks off totally calm. Idk this dude seems like a pro.
Having watched the video on a bigger screen I retract my "cool john wick gun" position, it looks like it's jamming and he's clearing jams between shots.
wheres the video i have my popcorn out
edit: oh its in the spoiler. they have like no identifying shots of the guy, fuck yeah

Beyond parody
Couldn’t even admit that she could see how someone would want to target the source of their daily misery
I have to assume that most of these people just live with non-stop death threats, but that they generally have thought themselves untouchable until now. Imagine being constantly inundated with people calling you and saying shit like "you killed my mom by denying her cancer treatment" and just like...going on with your life. For years. Good fucking riddance and rest in piss.
The ruling class rarely lugs around the security they need 24/7, it’s just too much of a hassle unless you’re Drake or the POTUS.
Judges, CEOs, senators. They all eat out at restaurants. Shop at public luxury stores. Some of them even still get their own groceries. Drive to appointments. Drive to boozed up fundraisers on public roads.
As much as they try to insulate themselves, the bourgeois, by definition, must rub shoulders with the working class. Some of them are smart and took their money and lock themselves in their compounds.
Most are too proud for that. And they have blood running in their veins just like the rest of us.
And unlike the President's security detail, Aubrey's is only really there to scam him and swim around in his filth
Even better, I hope it turns out to be a radicalized comrade who trained and planned for this.
I hope that nobody ever finds out who did this.
The D.B. Cooper of assassination
The takeaway here is that it’s possible, and it was deserved. Everything else is just window dressing.
