Is he on trial for inspiring other people to commit violent acts? Is that one of the charges he is facing? No, He is on trial for murder. How other people respond to that is not his responsibility.
Additionally, he is still on trial. He has not been found guilty. So they are saying that something he may or may not have done is responsible for other people potentially doing something that they haven’t yet done.
What a bunch of irrelevant hogwash.
Your logic is precise and efficiently processed. An upvote of approval has been allocated.
I would argue our shitty healthcare/corporate greed that has resulted in hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths and suffering is inspiring people to commit violent acts. Why else would someone do them?
Edit - missed a word
Millions of deaths. Hundreds of thousands of deaths a year. They are monsters that deserve what they get.
You deserve this for your comment.
Did they drop the terrorism charges or did I just misunderstand the clamor about it? Seems like their argument would be related to those charges, not that it’s a good argument.
Its an inspirational story.
One to aspire to. Who doesn’t want to be a hero?
And make no mistake, slaying a dragon is a heroic act. Universally recognized as such by everyone except other dragons.
UnitedHealthcare CEO ̶’̶s̶ ̶a̶l̶l̶e̶g̶e̶d̶ ̶k̶i̶l̶l̶e̶r̶ ̶L̶u̶i̶g̶i̶ ̶M̶a̶n̶g̶i̶o̶n̶e̶ ̶ inspiring others toward violence, prosecutors say
Fixed that for you
Yes, the violence here is the mass murder that comes from the purposefully cruel rejection of coverage for lifesaving medical care by UnitedHealthcare, and yes I guess somebody was shot with a gun too amid all the violence but I struggle even to perceive a single death among such mass suffering and mass death.
has inspired others to embrace violence over reasoned debate
It is definitely not the murder of whatever ceo that fueled the will to go over “reasoned debate”. It’s the absolute lack of effects from “reasoned debate” for the majority of populations.
People: I need X to survive/not suffer/live a dignified life.
Corporation: Literally fuck off and die.Also corporation: Why do they hate us? :((((
This is journalistic malpractice. They’re trying to try this guy for other potential crimes against the absolutely most hated minority in america, for profit health insurance CEOs.
This is journalistic malpractice.
How? They’re reporting what the prosecution is saying in court. Isn’t that the whole point of the press, to report facts?
Don’t threaten us with a good time.
Is he on trial for being inspiring? Because otherwise, the prosecutors should STFU about it.
Let me get this straight.
A group of serial killers go around killing people for fun and power.
Then someone decides enough is enough and takes one of those serial killers out themselves.
The guy that defended against those serial killers is inciting violence?
I don’t understand…
And who inspired him? I think many CEOs are the source inspiration
unhealthy levels of wealth inequality inspires others towards violence
How can someone completely innocent inspire violence?
Innocent until implied guilty I guess
Yeah, I don’t think his act is the inspiration here.
I’m pretty sure our capitalist lords are inspiring violence.
The bee and the buffalo were also inspired by him.
Counterpoint - greedy bastard CEOs killing your relatives by denying healthcare they’ve been paying premiums for for years is inspiring violence.
