    That sounds extremely low. What young voters are they polling? The Amish?

    Many things people find despicable are common place in the fog of war. I will never agree with gunning down a poor person no matter what they did, justice is served for the poor daily on a cold lead plate. For the 1%??? Who can we call when insurance kills our loved ones? When Dr’s make intentional mistakes and your loved one is dead? Can you call the police and expect them to go snorkeling to find evidence? Or can you maybe expect a call in a few weeks with a maybe update? We have seen how they respond when one of their masters is murdered. Until there is actual justice for all citizens, there will be no peace. Eat the rich.

    A person has to ask themselves the question of does this person help or hurt humanity, and if you look at this company denials since he took over he definetely hurts humanity as a whole.

    Not every human life is valuable or worth keeping. We need to treat our weakest members of society better, which is elderly, disabled and children. He hurts those people the most, when he should’ve trying to protect them. He chose to chase profits over human life.

    This is simply a logical consequence. Income equality now is FAR worse than the french revolution, I’m just suprised it took this long.

    Yeah that is shocking. My guess is lots of people declined to say for obvious reasons. The number has to be closer to 80%

      Exactly this. I suspect this group is both young enough to not have to supply their own insurance, or at least young enough to not have faced significant health costs yet. Many people have not yet experienced just how trash the US healthcare system is.

      I think of it this way. 41% are willing to say the killing was justified to a perfect stranger.

          After the shooting, hundreds [if not thousands] of doctors and nurses were posting stories about how insurance companies had literally killed people by withholding treatments.

          If you live your life in a way that makes a lot of people want to kill you, you can’t be surprised when you get shot.

          What makes a man turn neutral? Lust for gold? Power? Or maybe you were just born with a heart full of neutrality!

      I don’t think I’d be considered “young” anymore, but I don’t know if I’d say I support it.

      Is the world better off without him? Yes.

      Did he deserve to die? Yeah, probably.

      Do I want to support vigilantism? Probably not.

      Would it have been better if he had to deal with some terrible incurable and deadly disease? Yeah, if karma was real.

        I’m almost 40. And I support it.

        All other avenues are closed. All the proper and acceptable forms of redress are either coopted or outright captured. Civil, political, or otherwise. Peaceful Protest is universally ignored because it lacks the implicit threat of violence that makes it effective elsewhere in the world.

        I feel the same way about Brian as I do about trump. Not sad or angry that they got shot, but I’m upset that someone shot at them. In a better world, we would be empowered enough that the answer to these moneygrubbing grift barons would come before violence, unfortunately, when you only react to violence, violence becomes the only answer.

        For my FBI agent… I do not have plans to harm anyone, and this comment is an observation of the current political, social, and equality situation in the US, and not an advocation of violence.
