    law enforcement is on high alert as calls for threats against health care executives and their families become “widespread,”

    Last I checked it was only the executive in question who became “widespread” if people are threatening families that’s kinda fucked up but this just reads like pigs embellishing.

    While law enforcement does not believe Thompson’s killing is part of a trend targeting health executives, the attack underscores the vulnerability of these high-profile executives.

    As a trans person in the US this sentence makes me want to scream. Can’t imagine what it must be like to be vulnerable to being murdered 🙄

      School children throughout the US being told that gun violence is “a fact of life” are also deeply unimpressed by this statement from the cops
