    agreed that no one goes to that much trouble to carry out an assassination then walks around with the murder weapon. plus i wouldn’t trust a plastic homemade gun to begin with, but after it had been fired several times? that’s literally trash.

    the only mitigating factor I guess could be mental illness. Brian Thompson wasn’t exactly an obvious target, as far as evil CEOs go, still seems weird to pick him

      I can assure you a plastic home made pewer can go hundreds of rounds and thousands if done right and not abused

      Just look up the guys doing it on youtube

      Have you read the things United Healthcare has done and continues to do to people in the name of profit, and even if that’s not enough, if your life or the life of someone you cared about got ruined because of the decisions of your insurance providers, that could be motivation enough for someone.
