Man those parents. Oof.

I do not wanna be in their shoes.

Telling your kid that needed an emotional support robot friend that the robot friend is going to take a nap for a long time and might not wake back up? Ooo boy.

Helping a kid through a divorce is hard enough. This seems like a terrifying nightmare.

No, they will declare that a copycat and they have the right guy.

Then they go on a wild goose chase grabbing more people that fit the profile. It will quickly fall into political arrests - only the politics are the wealthy and powerful vs all of us.

I don’t have sources on me. But I’m fairly certain that in the French Revolution you had upper class supporters of the revolution, and maybe even some nobility. Most of the revolutions did, and they provided support to the revolution usually through some supply chain they had access to.

That being said, I could be entirely making it up, because that would have been more than a decade ago I learned it.

The only thing I can see this affecting is the Secure-boot requirement.

Which is very odd to consider that anything compatibility related would likely have nothing to do with secure boot, and everything to do with Windows being Windows.

The more that comes out against this guy, the more horrors I hear. No wonder the people fought so hard against such a strong opponent.

But it’s also impressive that it shows ordinary people are still more powerful in numbers, no matter how much you try to scare them into submission.

Jihad.

(I don’t think enough people understood your comment, well done)

That wasn’t a 3D printed silencer in the video.

If it was, that material is way stronger than anything I’ve worked with.

They don’t want him in front of a jury.

Regardless if it’s him or not. They cannot afford him to get acquitted.

But they can’t martyr him. That will be a death sentence to the US.

This isn’t going to end well for anyone. This guy has shown a much darker picture of the US to us that we all know too well.

What kind of hell would that bring.

That’s an exciting prospect isn’t it.

The exact same style of a shitty resolution camera catching the upper frame of a guy’s face while their only suspect sits in jail with evidence constructed in parallel?

The only thing I can imagine is that they would call that killer a copycat and that they have the right one.

“Do you realize how much the wealthy are losing right now?”

Clearly, not nearly enough.

If he wanted to get caught, why would he say the evidence was planted?

So I’m looking up how many elephants they would need, and so far it’s a lot.

I believe Luigi Mangione was radicalized by pain. The shooters who follow him will all have their own reasons for what they do, their own journeys to that violent end. But ultimately, they’ll do what they’ll do because Luigi proved it’s what gets attention.

So even the author of the article, who clearly points out it was a calculated, planned, and well thought out plan, which harmed no one else but Luigi’s target, comes to the the conclusion that this is about attention? Pain?

No. He wasn’t radicalized by pain. The attention he got was because he saw injustice that was inflicted on him and a lot of others and decided to do something about it.

Radicalization would imply he joined a terrorist group to prepare for this. The “group” he joined was unorganized, scattered group of people who suffer from chronic pain and have no choice but to live that way. This guy wasn’t dumb, he also cut off his family, had no children. He knew whatever he did, he wanted it to be entirely concentrated on someone who had a hand in the suffering of so many.

Wish I could be on whatever jury they cook up, because it looks like he didn’t do it to me.

He’s a software guy. The difference between his take home pay which covers the cost of living, some hobbies, and a car, and a guy worth $50,000,000 is about $49,800,000.

I certainly don’t know what it is.

Never heard of it. Never seen a show with it, never read a book on it, or read up on it online.

In fact, those two words together? I ain’t seen them like that ever, and I’m pretty sure it ain’t English. Just like this guy, I ain’t seen him do it. Ain’t him.

To be fair, the video of the shooter had the upper half of his face.

And the guy they arrested has the upper half of his face.

Although I have the upper half of my face.

Do you have the upper half of your face? If not we can probably rule you out.

Something something stiches

Nah that ain’t him.

Edit: Looking at photos they had on ABC NY article and this guy? Unless they get him to plead guilty or otherwise confess, which they totally could do, it actually really might not be him.

Yeah, that’s the part I’m not excited about. They’ve narrowed who they are looking for far too much for it to be pinned on just anyone.

So you can guarantee whoever they do pin it on will “resist law enforcement” and be unable to plead their innocence in court.
