Summary
Brian Thompson, CEO of UnitedHealthcare, was fatally shot in a premeditated attack outside the New York Hilton Midtown before speaking at an investor conference.
The gunman, still at large, fired multiple times, leaving shell casings marked with the words “deny,” “defend,” and “depose.”
Authorities suggest Thompson was targeted but remain unclear on the motive. His wife confirmed prior threats against him.
Analysts speculate a possible vendetta tied to his company. The case raises questions about executive security, as Thompson lacked personal protection despite known risks.
My dude, my point is you are arguing against a viewpoint that has not been expressed.
So, this isn’t a thread about direct action?
Because gunning someone down seems pretty direct to me.
Sure it is, but I feel you are ignoring the context of the branch of it you have chosen to participate in, as I’ve already attempted to illustrate.
Having said that, if you don’t get my point, nothing I say now is likely to make a difference…
So, this whole thing has been about your feelings?
Whatever.
