If this happens to two or three more CEOs over the next couple of months, they’ll change their position on gun control, not change their behaviors that made somebody do this. And “they’re coming for our guns” morons would find a way to not only excuse it, but fully support it, at least at first.
If this happens to multiple CEOs, companies will just implement secret-service style security for the C-suite. Wouldn’t even be a rounding error in CEO compensation.
I mean having to live in a fortress and being afraid to go into a coffee shop without armed guards is no way to live… it wouldn’t be a fun time for those poor, sociopathic bastards. But I guess having those extra digits in their bank accounts makes up for it?
they legit just send out the interns to go get coffee, so much that it’s a trope at this point. these people barely raise their own fucking kids, they don’t give a shit about any of those like, minor pleasures. they have cocaine, and other rich people who are constantly willing to kiss each other’s ass in a big circle, human centipede ouroborous style.
they already do that shit. elon already has a pretty big security retinue and his ass almost never goes out in actual public anymore, only ever hosts private events with verified people and pretty good security. most CEOs and billionaires aren’t gonna be that paranoid, but most of them don’t have to be, and they already tend to live in totally different contexts than your average person.
what I’d be more interested in knowing is how this guy figured out that this particular guy was going to be outside this particular hotel at this particular time. this wasn’t a crime of pure opportunity, this was something which seems like it was probably planned in advance. if it was publicly accessible where this guy was going, that’s a much easier and cheaper thing for businesses and CEOs to solve, and is probably the most important part of this kind of security.
It’s funny you think they’re not. They’ve been dick-riding manufacturers and lifestyle companies for decades. How much “Glock” or “Mossberg” merch have you seen out there? Those are eager corpo shills.
Lol I know exactly who pays into the NRA, they’re just corporate shills now nothing more. They don’t do shit for gun rights and most gun owners want them to desolve.
They are inadvertently. Corporations say the right words and the pro2a people fall in line. Look at all of the millions of citizens that voted directly against their best interests in November because they’ve effectively been fed messages that made them disregard what actually effects them. Obviously not all pro2a people are in this camp, but there’s a lot of overlap between those folks and people getting manipulated by other rich and powerful forces.
Most pro2a people vote repub because they’re the only ones that remotely say anything pro2a even though they’re completely shit at it. Almost all gun owners are single issue voters. If the dems dropped the anti gun rhetoric they’d sweep elections.
as a hobby, it’s basically just another form of consumerism, and the culture surrounding it is not unlike that of car culture, with the same purported values. freedom, agency, maintaining control over your own life, it’s all just marketing speak to drive customer traffic, and ends up being politicized only really insofar as everything must exist inside of a political context.
there are definitely advantages to having guns for certain populations, certainly, marginalized populations that are already at risk, but those populations already have more prevalent firearms use for obvious reasons, and would probably maintain higher firearms use rates regardless of legality as a result of their marginalization, where more strict gun laws won’t really factor in, or rather, would be just another meaningless slap-on charge to extend sentencing.
most of your other actual pro2a people are gonna by random hobbyists, hunters, and fudds, who can’t really be expected to put up any organized resistance against anything, and the other half are people who would already be a fan of any plan to march around and take away other people’s guns, because they’re ex-military chuds, or cops, or what have you.

We really are just a few years away from Cyberpunk, aren’t we? I’d actually say a mix of both that, and Cloud Atlas’ last timeline.

Living in fear with constant security has to be better than just treating people better, right?
They have the money to hire a 24/7 coffee shop on their private island. I don’t think it’s so bad for them.

Sounds like the miserable existence they deserve.
Absolutely this, this is a nucleation point for disarming the citizenship. Step one for a dictatorship.
Are you under the impression that pro2a people are corporate shills? Lol the fuck
It’s funny you think they’re not. They’ve been dick-riding manufacturers and lifestyle companies for decades. How much “Glock” or “Mossberg” merch have you seen out there? Those are eager corpo shills.
Glock and Mossberg are gun manufacturers, not health care providers…the fuck
I implore you to learn about the history and funding of the NRA.
