Something tells me we're going to see way more Super Smash Bros characters in the next few months/years. The Blackstone CEO's assassination is pretty much the same as United Healthcare's assassination, but the Media learned not to call it what it is so they said it was a mistaken identity but the target was the NFL??? It makes no sense.
Also the VA councilman that got burned alive was involved in Blackstone real estate decisions, so it seems these two recent assassination attempts were very much related. It's like how a cancer starts to kill an organism but it triggers the body's natural white blood cells to re-balance things.
As Trump causes more and more fundamental issues, the "bread and circuses" will start to go away, and what comes after is... more white blood cells.
Reading some of the reports, the guy had CTE and had used the wrong bank of elevators.
The two are nothing alike
Shane Tamura wasn't targetting a specific person. That's why it's a mass shooting, and not a mass assassination
He had a note on him explicitly blamine the NFL for his CTE, on account of them downplaying the risks of Football
The Blackstone CEO wasn't even an intended target. He went up the wrong elevator, looking for the NFL HQ
They didn’t target Blackstone.
Anyone cheering it on like it was a situation similar to Luigi is misguided IMO. You gotta be principled imo.
I agree here. Im looking at peoples responses and its like dudes. He did not shoot a woman coming out of the elevator but he did shoot one at his destination. Sounds like he was not shooting random females. Seems to me the crux of the narrative is a note they "found" on him.
