When one individual inflicts bodily injury upon another such that death results, we call the deed manslaughter; when the assailant knew in advance that the injury would be fatal, we call his deed murder. But when society places hundreds of proletarians in such a position that they inevitably meet a too early and an unnatural death, one which is quite as much a death by violence as that by the sword or bullet; when it deprives thousands of the necessaries of life, places them under conditions in which they cannot live – forces them, through the strong arm of the law, to remain in such conditions until that death ensues which is the inevitable consequence – knows that these thousands of victims must perish, and yet permits these conditions to remain, its deed is murder just as surely as the deed of the single individual; disguised, malicious murder, murder against which none can defend himself, which does not seem what it is, because no man sees the murderer, because the death of the victim seems a natural one, since the offence is more one of omission than of commission. But murder it remains.
I don't think either one of them are heroes. If Trump put lynchings on PPV a lot of people would pay to see someone get murdered. Especially if it's someone that they don't think is as human as them. It's a slippery slope and I'm never going to dehumanize anyone, but especially not those whom I hate or dislike.

I don't see anything special about this manifesto. He's, still a killer and you guys are 5 steps from attending a lynching.
