I'm always amazed that in cases like this nobody gets crazy and try to get justice themselves.

There are so many guns in the US, and we hear about rogue snipers and school shooters, but never about one guy that decided a CEO should pay for his bad deeds in blood.

Maybe it shows that the average human being is quite stable and peaceful?

Despite our media, it isn't part of our shared culture to go out shoot someone in revenge. Things like murder and generational feuds are taboo. And we're too individualistic to do things like make the ultimate self-sacrifice in pursuit of justice.

We are also very far removed from nature and death. Most of us fear death and do everything to avoid it. Few of us have any experience in killing.

It's easy to get a gun and kill someone in broad daylight. But you have to be really motivated to overcome all that I mentioned and accept the consequences.

To whoever flagged this: grow a spine. The poster is making an observation - and an interesting one. Not even a call to action. Instead of plugging your ears and screaming lalalala, why don't you come up with an equally interesting response to this question that has apparently made you so uncomfortable?

In certain circles this might be considered a call for action by a lone wolf. Not saying that this is one of those circles.

CEO has a $million+ security detail. What does your kindergartener have?

Vigilante justice died down with the phase out of leaded gasoline. One of the effects of people not being so violent and impulsive anymore is that people are not so violent and impulsive anymore

And yet, you still get 'I hate society and I'm going to shoot up a school/mall/movie theatre/parade/nightclub' terracts on the regular.

It is strange that intersection of 'I'm angry at stuff and want to make people pay', and 'I own guns and I'm going to use them' seems to consistently result in rage and violence against society at large, rather than bad actors in particular.

It's almost as if there's a kind of slant to the propaganda that pushes people into those buckets. Not a lot of unhinged, violent anti-3M/Purdue/Kaiser/DuPont rhetoric on the *chans and in the Q-sphere...

Uncle Ted had plenty of time for exposure to lead, there have got to be hundreds of better domestic terrorists for you to choose from
