I'm mad at private insurers screwing the people over. 
I respect Tim Walz but his and other democrats take on the murder of that CEO is part of why people think democrats are out of touch.

1. Nobody is arguing that he should be happy and celebrating like people online are.
2. If you continue to have low expectations out of your representatives, you will continue to elect bad ones.

Even with how insane politics are, it is ridiculous to expect a sitting governor of a state in the US or any prominent politician to outright celebrate this cold blooded murder in the street, there is just no way its happening

Everything doesn't have to be a political exercise. Dude was CEO of one of the biggest healthcare companies in the world. Walz expressed his condolences. Politicians especially ones who were on the ticket of a losing presidential election have to use their words carefully.

Life is absurd. Lean into it.
Completely agree.
Whataboutism
Deflection. You must have been pissed when a corrupt CEO gotten clapped.
P.S. it can happen to any enabler of this system. Right down to their wealthy donors
OP sounds like a dimwitted moron
Being edgy doesn't bring in donations to run a political operation

I thought it was weird thecoli stickied thread after the news came out he was killed. Guy was a nobody and then same people flooding that thread going to be the same ones saying black woken deaths and missing go unreported.

Aside from the obvious reasons why a public, elected figure isn’t going to condone assassination….
You gotta understand that inviting inflammatory language or sentiments like that is escalating an already precarious and highly volatile political environment.
The Republicans have no shame and have no interest in improving society so they have no issue in appealing and instigating the radical parts of their base to score messaging points. But overall it’s not healthy for a democratic society to be comfortable with political assassinations (regardless of how much the victims deserve it).
Especially in a country with as many guns as we have.

Of course not. When they ask for his thoughts on the murder, he should simply just discuss his dinner plans for later

Yes and we all saw what a 1 billion dollar campaign war chest accomplished in this last presidential election. We saw what "not trying to offend people" accomplished in 2016 and this election right? Obviously democrats should continue to do the same shyt since it's worked so amazingly for them.
Show me where in my post or any of my posts in this thread where I am asking for him to condone murder.
Show me an example of what I wanted him to say that would involve being happy that the man was killed.
