I can play the same game. How many correctional officers were killed randomly by inmates in the last 10 years? Probably more than healthcare CEOs.

I've seen zero people feel sorry or outraged by those officers deaths. I guess you guys just don't care about us and think it's cool that we die more than CEOs. Awesome. 

Can we stop with the passive aggressive "Oh if you don't care about this guy and feel sorry you wanted it to happen." 
Just like when correctional officers get killed in the line of duty, people shrug their shoulders and go....That's to be expected. CEOs pinch pennies so tight people die so somebody gets revenge and I'm supposed to be shocked and outraged. Again, were you shocked and outraged when officers died? If not, you're terrible people.

Bring me the people saying their murder was justified because they're complicit in operating the prison and criminal justice system and I will express the same views.

That's kind of what I'm trying to say. At first I thought Benji was arguing for the sake of arguing. I didn't think people actually didn't understand why nobody gives a shit that this guy got clipped. 

For the record, he probably was a decent guy and didn't deserve to be killed. He might have had a lovely family and great kids and everything else. But I'd probably be more sad if it was some single mom that was randomly killed and it left her kids without a parent. Is that difficult to understand?

No, see, you're the one not understanding. I'm not saying anyone should care or be sad, I'm not either, I'm not saying anyone can't even crack jokes or whatever. I'm objecting to the idea that the murder is justified. And especially is justified because the victim belongs to a group we've collectively decided to hate out of ignorance. That was what I was responding to that Boredfrom was surprised and in disbelief about.

The only objection I made to not caring is that many of the explanations being given for why nobody should care in this instance apply just as much if not more in many other instances where people do care. I have no objection to people who think it's a good thing that this guy, Trump, prison guards or voters get killed for being complicit.

You got to be shitting me. You don't think people are cheering and thinking it's justified when an officer gets killed in a prison?
