    I mean, its a move.

    and to do em all at the same time is to prevent them from organizing a reaction/defense/counter. its also kind of scary if maybe you were in the margins, sympathizing with one of them quietly, and now they're all dead. see also Operation Hummingbird.

    or, a fictional but taken to the extreme example, when Walter had those biker freaks do all those people in prison at the same exact time.

    the message is clear: I can do whatever because I have enough killers to orchestrate some shit like this.

      One of my top 3 scenes of the show, maybe in TV. Just horrifying but visually stimulating because of the montages.

        There's a really great scene in Fargo season 2 like this as well

        This is similarly my favorite scene in all of TV/Movies, I love the use of the song Locomotive Breath by Jethro Tull also.

        Season 1 and 2 of Fargo are some of the greatest TV of all time. If you haven't seen the I cannot recommend them enough. Also unlike True Detective they managed to actually outdo the first season even without Billy Bob Thornton playing the best villain ever put to the screen in the first season.
