No.
But one day I will get so desperatly poor that taking out someone in siphoning wealth from the country and ending them might seem like a fitting end.
If we don't change things anyways.
I always wonder why people shoot up schools and parks when their problems are caused by people in board rooms. Never see a mass shooting in a board room for some reason.
Well one of the original mass shootings resulted in the expression 'going postal', but I don't recall what was ever theorized as a motive there. Workplace frustration maybe?
Maybe there's a selection bias, and we only hear about the dumb ones who target innocent people and get caught.
Believe it or not, people willing to murder others aren't the best at thinking clearly.
"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable."
Let's make peaceful revolution possible by campaigning for electoral reform at the state level! We should all be free to vote for those who best represent us, secure in the knowledge that our vote will still be cast against those we don't want in office.
We don't need to wait for trump to have a hamburger heart attack, we dont need to wait for the republicans to stop existing. We can do this right now... and some states already have!
Yours can to, most especially the blue states. Who is stopping you in those blue states?
