This morning, 6/14/2025, two Democratic-Farm-Labor Minnesota state
legislators were shot at their homes. One assasination was successful;
the husband was also killed. The other was an attempted assasination of
the politician and his wife.

I don't know how I'm supposed to feel about this. When Luigi Mangione gunned
down a health care CEO, it was met with at best "murder is wrong, but..."
excuse-making by the leftist pundit-sphere, if not outright cheering him on
and calling for jury nullification in his trial.

So if murder in service to strongly-held political beliefs is understandable
if not laudable, then should I feel that justice has been served with these
attacks in Minnesota or should I be outraged over the cold-blooded murder of
government officials?

I need a leftist to tell me what I should think and how this is 'different'.

Well, I can't tell you how to feel about the murders of Melissa Hortman
and her husband, and the attempted murders of John Hoffman and his wife.
I was quite upset. I don't care for Americans behaving like they live in
a shithole country and assasination is the only way to overturn
government and its policies.

But let me help you with Mangione. Put yourself in the position of one of
Brian Thompson's policy members. You surely wouldn't have wanted Thompson
to die by targeted killing. That's a quick death he didn't deserve. No,
you'd have wanted him to succumb to trauma or disease and the associated
stress of trying to obtain pre-approval from member services for the
treatment or elective surgery he required from customer service that's
instructed to deny everything.

Dying whilst waiting on hold for a supervisor who will never come to the
phone? That would have been more like it. No, Mangione did a disservice.

Wow such hatred on display.  Amazing that you appear to care so much
about the legislators.  I guess to you some lives are more equal than
others.

But not to you?  Umm, let's hope you're still under warranty...

 Can you find where I've attempted to justify murder like you have?

Like *I* have????  Have you stopped beating your wife?
The only thing waiting to be "found" here is any functioning human who doesn't value some lives more than others.
