Thoughts and Prayers

***SARCASM FOLLOWS***

I honestly don't get what all the hullabaloo in the media is all about with this CEO's death. I mean, really!?!?! It's just some old guy on the street! Not like it's the dozens of children who die school shootings evey year. No, children dying doesn't even make the evening news anymore. But one stupid businessman is wall-to-wal coverage for days if not weeks!

Well, I would like to offer his family and all the other CEO's who have been negatively impacted by this unfortunate incident my sincere thoughts and prayers which is a hell of a lot more than the thousands of dead Americans got from their insurance companies.

As far as the gun violence committed by some rando? Well, that's what the rest of us live with day in and day out. We can't go to the grocery store or a movie theatre without being vigilant and knowing where the exits are.

Welcome to our reality. This is the world you and the politicians you've bought and paid for have created for the rest of us! So glad to have you join us!

Don't think for a minute you're safe behind those locked gates with all your armed guards. Clearly, you're not! If you're still clinging to that belief, maybe you should try out some of those pharmaceuticals you're so busy peddling to the rest of us to help you out with those delusions.

It's class warfare.

And the white mainstream American media has clearly communicated which side they're on.

Clearly.

Now we will add ammunition. Unreal
