    You would see the exact same if a president was assassinated, regardless of the side you choose. Super happy people, super angry people.

      A political figure of either party getting assassinated would spark some very ugly times. A bunch of universally hated CEOs? Not so much.

        I never said it wouldn’t be ugly, of course it would. I’m saying that there would be people reveling in it and people raging about it, which is a fact. An unfortunate one.

        There’s people raging about the CEO murder too, it’s just different populations of people.

            I don’t disagree, but still there are people happy and unhappy. I was making a simple comparison that in all cases people are glad and people raging. In every statement I’ve made it has been factually correct, it just seems people are trying to make it more complex of a statement than it is.

              Because it’s not correct. Most people are fucking thrilled to see this guy killed, or at least certainly not upset about it. Quit your enlightened centrist nonsense.

              To your earlier point, if the attempt on Trump succeeded there’s a damn good chance it would of sparked a civil war or at least a significant conflict like the troubles in northern ireland. As you can see, the killing of this guy is not sparking anything like that but fire memes and a fired up populace ready for the next deserving CEO to meet a similar fate.
