    Reported by a worker at McD. Wtf, they’re the group that would benefit the most from a change in the healthcare system. Idiot.

    Or, and hear me out here, we can view this with a little sympathy: there’s $60k in rewards for anyone who turned this guy in, and the person who did it makes peanuts at McDonalds.

    Now, I don’t know if I would do it, but I can completely and utterly sympathize why someone who makes poverty wages would turn class traitor for what almost certainly life-changing money.

          Vigilante justice indicates a failure in the system to administer justice.

          It is absolutely in society’s interest that someone who has caused deaths and misery of thousands is punished.

              Luigi wasn’t really in a position where he could stop the CEO through any lesser use of force.

                And that’s because it’s not his job to do so. Not every problem needs to be solvable by any given individual.

                If he really was that passionate about the problem, he should’ve run for office to get into a position to solve the problem, or at least joined forces with some group that pushes for causes he believes in. Or started a business to compete with those businesses he disagrees with. Those would all be proactive steps he could take. Killing a CEO doesn’t solve anything, another will take his place, and surely he knew that.
