Hopefully it doesn't come to that, and he just never gets caught.
If he does, it's gonna be one hell of a gofundme campaign for his defense.
Except the government will probably make GoFundMe freeze the funds for the campaign.
It's a legal defense fund, not a bounty reward.
Granted, they'd probably still do so anyways.
Oh, I'm almost certain that they would primarily because they would not want him having money to fight a legal battle.
He won't be paying for it in either case, someone will pick this up pro-bono.
Yes and that person will be under a lot of duress to play along on a show trial.
This is a class war
Good point
if this dude gets found he won't make it to trial.
It's been 3 days, and the chances of them finding him go down with every day.
If I was him id be in the Appalachians camping by now with no internet or cell connected devices. Id just wait a month or two and move all of my shit out of new york, mind you he may not even be a New Yorker he could be Californian for all we know.
I legit think the state/oligarchy will kill him silently. Taking it to trial and giving this guy a voice could make things so much worse for them. They're afraid of creating a robin hood, and class solidarity; of giving the working class a hero and cause to rally around.
They're so close to creating a robot army that can suppress the masses. They just have to bide their time until revolution is impossible.
Wouldn't that backfire though?
Won’t more people start thinking “So this guy killed a really important CEO and apparently never got caught nor faced repercussions… you know what…”
