Not sure where you're pulling that from. Neither the original post nor my response said anything about legality. OP said these assassinations were the "logical sequel" to the CEO attack, without any evidence the two are directly related at all.

I look at it like this: if you've accumulated that much money AND have had time to use it to help others, and haven't? Glub glub time.

If you've suddenly stumbled into ludicrous wealth because a psychotic demigod drowned one of your forebears? Well, it'll take at least 48 hours for you to put that money to more philanthropic use. I figure we can give those folks at least that much of a grace period to decide to be better.

The next Superman can handle them if that's not enough to change their attitude.

And realistically, this would create so many power vacuums all at once that civilization would probably collapse overnight, but you can only get so realistic with superpower hypotheticals.

Relocate anyone with a net worth of >$500 mil to the bottom of the Mariana Trench.

This sounds great in a general handwavey sort of way except for the fact that (at least to my knowledge) there's no evidence tying the alleged Minnesota assassin's motive in any way to the death of Brian Thompson.

He does appear to consider women's healthcare a form of "violence", however. Should we examine our consciences and outlaw women's healthcare in case people like this take offense and start a civil war?

We can wring our hands and try to find ways to make everything our own fault or we can accept that anyone under enough pressure can become violent, regardless of whether they believe themselves to have righteous intentions when they do it.

I misread that as "state police" and had almost the same thought.

I mean, the Constitution of the United States is also very clear the fucker wasn't eligible to BE President again, but we all seem to have just shimmied right past that as well.

I have no idea what that middle warning symbol is trying to convey. Raises undead fish from their graves? Makes you throw fish at your neighbor's driveway? Will cause flooding across the entire state of Virginia?

To be fair to the cats, similar logic probably applies to more human food service workers than we'd care to admit.

Obsidian has been great for this, my notes have basically become a giant wiki full of places, notes, possible puzzle solutions, screenshots, etc.
