The handgun police say Luigi Mangione used to fatally shoot UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson is nearly as recognizable as the now-famous alleged shooter himself—and shows just how common and lethal these weapons have become.

So...

A common 3d printed gun...

And you sure as shit can't ID it in the video, that's just the ones the cops say was in a backpack that they say Luigi had....

And like I've said before, the backpack isn't admissible evidence.

Like. You're operating under the assumption that whatever the police do is ok, and I struggle to understand how an American can have that much faith in the American criminal justice system.

People get off on way less all the time man, he's got money and it doesn't take much to beat reasonable doubt. Especially when the cops fuck up this bad.
