    It’s a statement for sure, but you can bet every single healthcare CEO, within hours of this happening, were retaining instant multi-million dollar security teams, and won’t reduce that security for 10 years at least.

    Their money will protect them, and I’m going to call it that this won’t happen again.

      Security teams are not the secret service though. No way some body guard is going to take a bullet for a ceo. If this keeps up, you will see copycats and I doubt security teams will be much of a deterrent.

        Usually you take poor people with families for this and get them some kind of exorbitantly high pay for their family if they take a bullet for you. There are enough people that deem this arrangement “worth it”.

          Because it fucking is, and we should start acting more like that is not a good situation.

          Who am I kidding, we are way more fucked on every front, but it’s business as usual for us.

      But them living in fear of this, the inconvenience of it, the pain of a rather big expense is definitely worth it.
