    Because “rich fuck” isn’t a protected class so they can’t charge with hate crime.

    I don’t see how this can stick, there was no intent to cause terror, it was surgically precise. Assassination maybe, if they want to be transparent about who is actually running the US.

      Surely you must see how false this is. 100% of the comments praising this have referenced some form of class-based revolutionary fervor, gleeful that the rich will now quake in their boots.

      A killing meant to manipulate others by fear is terrorism.
