    That dude is gonna get caught. NYC pigs and feds will pull out all the stops to make sure he is caught and made an example of. The billionaire class cannot afford for the poor to begin handling it in-house.

    How much of an example is left up to whoever catches him I reckon.

      completely agreed and i hope that his death is quicker and more painless that the monster he relieved us of.

      it's been 48 hours and i wonder if there's a chance still and i also wonder how the billionaire class is going to respond. bodyguards? will there be more? will there be another bonnie and clyde? (i hope that we're in another era of bank robbers and robin hood types becoming folk heros like they were in the late-19th/early-20th century; they would OWN social media).

      they have no idea what he looks like, other than white male and a rough age range. if there isn't enough evidence to find personal info about him, that's the end of it. a cop could look him in the eye and have no idea.

        luckily they are unlikely to let that them stop them from shooting him

        The NYPD has released pictures of his face with his mask down, if it is him they have a mostly clear image now unfortunately.

        Edit: examining the images now though I'm not totally convinced it's the same person

            I made an edit, I hadn't looked super close but I think you're right, nose is different, different coat and bag, and the police are that incompetent to think it's him and be wrong. Or they just have so much pressure to 'do their job' that they had to release something.

          the first few hours are by far the most important, the chances of catching him just keep going down after that.

      How will he get caught? Cops are incredibly incompetent. So is the FBI. They are mechanisms of social control, not mystery solving.

        lol. I got it. You don’t want him to be caught. Which is perfectly fine. Neither do I. The former CEO of united healthcare got what he deserved, frankly. But wanting something to happen is neither here nor there. Pay attention to how much this is disturbing the rich and those in power. They’re going to look long and hard for this man. The man has to have everything just so. Cops only need a bit of luck once or twice. Odds are that he gets caught, despite how badly most of America doesn’t want him to.

        Also, do you think i know how he’s going to be caught? lol
