If national gun control eventually happens because of CEOs getting shot it will tell us what the exchange rate of dead children to dead CEOs is at getting legislation to happen.
That gun control will be ableist and racist mental health checks as well as a massive fee so only our best and brightest (read: richest and whitest) can crash out and shoot people.
That’s most gun control laws in the US. There’s never anything that stops mass shooters, only fees and a reactionary gun culture. Even stuff like automatics or RPGs can be bought if you pass a background check and pay a ginormous fee for the permits.
They applied gun control in California after the Black Panthers started arming themselves
So all told the fatalities are:
- Blackstone REIT CEO
- NYPD off-duty security guard
- other security guard
- 27yo employee of the real estate management company which owned the building for some reason
RIP to some portion of the latter, though they may have been the CEO on a 17 year delay
Working for a landlord management company is the same class traitor tier as an officer.
We’ve got a death Star construction worker over here
Huhuhu hooohoo haha HEEHEEHEE
It’s weird that this feels more important than if he’d actually gotten someone from the NFL, even though the NFL earned twice the revenue of Blackstone in 2024
It’s the morality of the revenue. Not that the NFL is squeaky clean, but mass corporate rentierism that’s keeping people out of home ownership is another level of gross.
Yeah you don’t need football to survive, but you do need shelter. The NFL, for as stupid as it can be in a lot of instances, makes its money from providing something people want to see, rather than profiting off of something they need.
