The key word you are using is innocent. He wasn't. He went in every single day and excelled at denying care, lifesaving medicine, life saving procedures, and equipment to the most vulnerable. I would love to see how your definition of innocent would change if you watched your mother, sister, brother, father, or child suffer and die so Brian Thompson could get a raise. I would never condone murder, but all the shock over the American response to this incident is what is crazy to me. How can you not understand the reaction. The American people are done with the BS you and others are trying to sell. Look at history. When a civil society gets to where we make obscene profit off the sick, dyinlg, and most vulnerable, the consequences are inevitable. This conversation has been in social discourse for decades. If our politicians and corporations make billions to make the rest suffer, the outcome is inevitable. If you want the dynamic to change, only way to do it is to end the practices that got us here, not scold us for not feeling sympathy for a man who caused suffering and death for thousands. Again, violence is wrong, murder is wrong, I would never advocate or condone it, but I , as a thinking human, understand the frustration and lack of sympathy and empathy for the Thompsons.
