When the rich kill the poor it’s called business. When the poor kill the rich it’s called violence.
Granny knows what’s up
Oh how I hope all these righteous old ladies in viral images and memes go down in the history books. From my own guesstimate experience, tragically, it’s an upvote and a moving on. Yet, these women are not doing it for glory.
slaps magazine into handgun. We can do business too.
Its called terrorism.
Let’s all be poor entrepreneurs and venture for some capital.
Yep, when you shoot someone it is called violence.
Unless shooting someone isn’t considered violence anymore?
I couldn’t tell whether you were making the pedantic point that shooting a CEO is violence, or saying something more, viz., letting people die for corporate profit isn’t a form of violence. If you’re just arguing that killing a CEO is violence, sure, but this is missing the point.
Violence is violence. There is no grey area here just black and white. You shoot someone because of a cause. Reminds me of Hitler to be real. Hitler had a cause and he murdered plenty.
So this shit just promotes violence. There is no spinning this to be a good shooting.
CEO woke up went about his day and was shot by a spoiled rich kid coward. The coward chose violence after being denied like most people are everyday. He couldn’t fathom being denied.
I hope he gets justice.
And that a CEO intentionally and illegitimately denies health care coverage that leads to people straight up dying or otherwise ending up permanently disabled due to preventable causes, that’s just fine?
Of course not, but he’s also right. Robbing someone is not violence, shooting someone is violence. Granny has the right spirit, but she needs to work on her wording/messaging. IMO the poster would have worked the same if it said “when you rob the poor, you’re a businessman, when the poor fight back, they’re criminals”.
If robbing someone causes them to fucking die it is absolutely violence. It’s like taking food away from someone who desperately needs it: you’re essentially killing them.
It’s never this black and white.
It’s it violence if you’re stopping someone else’s violence?
If you defend yourself with force against an attacker that means to do you significant harm or end your life, is that still violence?
When do we cross the line between violence and self defense? When is it a crime and when is it ok?
If someone does some happy shooting into the air and a bullet comes down on someone 100 miles away, killing them, is that violence? If it doesn’t harm anyone is the happy shooting still violence?
Nothing is as black and white as you seem to want to believe.
I’m with Luigi. Bluntly, that CEO was, in my opinion, causing significant harm to people unnecessarily. Denying coverage when something is clearly covered, having non-medical people weigh in on whether a procedure or treatment is medically necessary… People literally died and suffered by his hands, and his polities; but he gets a pass because he caused all that harm with a pen instead of a knife?
I guess to you, Hitler was a fine person who didn’t kill anyone. He commanded armies to kill, sanctioned gas chambers and the deaths of millions of people just because… But since he was only giving orders, he’s not guilty of committing any violence, right? Do you think Hitler’s family also deserves justice for his death?
Hopefully you recognize how stupid you sound.
