I get the impression a brief window isn't the goal, but in this conversation rationalization might be.

Any reason to prefer capturing the trust fund guardian rather than killing them? I mean, the base plan doesn't call for checking how the original billionaire got their money or assessing them personally. We're operating strictly at meme level - controlling that much wealth is evil. "Kill them! Kill them all!" Anybody who decides to wuss out and start adding constraints could be a shill or an apologist - at any rate it doesn't show full commitment to Sparkle Motion.

Another fun fact, billionaires and their lifestyles emmit more carbon pollution in 90 minutes than the average person in their lifetimes.

Ironically, moreso for legal reasons than anything else. If Jeeves becomes the sole guardian of the kids’ inheritance, offing him means you lose the passwords to the offshore accounts and control of the trust goes to some extended family member or the bank itself. If he can be coerced or turned, you’ve a much easier route to accessing the funds, buying the company that makes school lunches and telling them to knock it the fuck off charging children for food.
We don’t need to kill them all, just enough to make the rest realize that “number go up” doesn’t mean much when you see a torch and pitchfork every time you look out a window.

So what you are saying is we have plenty supply of school children and not enough billionaires? Let's see how we can get more billionaires then. Or do you want to reduce the number of school children? Because that is being worked on constantly...America, you have the freedom to get killed by someone with mental issues anytime.

Also, he has a lot of kids now... money tied up over inheritance squabbles and civil cases getting redistributed to lawyers and court systems. I imagine more kids will come out of the woodwork too claiming a piece of the inheritance pie

If I'm reading the hypothetical right, it's saying what if in a year, the numbers were reversed... 323 $hootings with 69 deaths, versus 1 school shooting with 1 death.
Would gun laws change, would tax laws change? Etc etc. Would minimum wage change?
Purely hypothetical of course

I put some more thought into it and did some measurements and it makes way more sense than I initially thought. I looked at a random neighborhood in a large city nearish to me and it had 50-60 foot wide roads (and it seemed most of the roads with sidewalks the road itself was narrower but had a very similar ~60-70 feet sidewalk to sidewalk) and a narrow road with a traffic calming median had 10 foot wide lanes. Each of these neighborhood streets had an average of about 10 single family homes on each side, with roads about 1500 feet long (0.25-0.3 milesish, so a very short walk from end to end) most appeared to have 1 car garages with a few having 2 car garages
If we take on of those 60 foot wide streets, place a pair of small garages on each end with 6 parking spots each (parking spaces are 8x16 feet on average and this assumes a 16 food wide driving lane to access these garages) providing covered offstreet parking for 1.2 cars per existing household (makes the transition more politically palletable) which consumes about 160 feet of the 1500 feet of former-road and preserves a dedicated 10 foot wide alleyway (potentially with a 1 foot each side "keep out" space for emergency vehicles. Some fire engines are a bit more than 10 feet wide)
We're left with a 1340 x 50 foot strip of land. If we break that into 50x100 foot plots you can fit a dozen double-wide manufactured homes (square footage of 800-2500 sq feet, just using manufactured homes as a consistent and easy example) with space for a yard for each of them. Alternatively if you do 50x50 plots you can easily fit a cute little 30x30-40 foot home on each plot with a small private yard and add 26 900-1200 square foot single family homes. You could even convert one or two of these plots into new green spaces to further make it a nicer neighborhood
In the example block I looked at, there were 3 very similar parallel streets squared off with other slightly higher throughput streets surrounding them. If we convert these 3 streets in this way, creating a dense walkable/bikable superblock we've taken an area of 1300x1500 feet that previously contained 60 single family homes, and increased that to about 135 homes without reducing anyone's yards and only by shifting them to use a communal garage instead of a private one (which they can now convert their garages into living space and remove their driveways for more yard space!) Or we go from about 800 single family homes per square mile to over 1800 homes per square mile. And this is just unimaginative replacing existing roads with single family homes and not even considering adding any sort of mixed use or multifamily homes^1^ nor annexing any portion of the existing homes' 50 foot deep front yards!
If we annex 30 feet existing homes' 50 foot deep front yard (they still keep their 50 foot deep backyards!) that gives us about 120x1500 feet to redevelop. Lets put a 10 foot wide alleyway on each side in front of the existing homes, drop the shared garages because nobody loses road access, and we've got 100x1500 feet to work with, or easily 60 new 50x50 foot plots or 74 40x50 foot plots (240 or 282 homes where there was previously 60, alternatively 3400 or 4000 lots per sq mile up from ~1800 originally)
^1.^ I did calculate out 2900 48 units in the 50x1500 foot space using 100x40 foot quadplexes

More numbers for people to play with.
"Since 1999, 440 people have been killed and 1,243 injured in shooting events at K-12 schools."A Timeline of School Shootings Since Columbine
Since 2015, school shooting incidents in the U.S. have skyrocketed compared to previous decades. So far in 2024, there have been 144 shooting incidents at

This thread is in an LW instance, and navigating offended cunts is more necessary here than Reddit apparently, lol, go report it to a mod if you're a vapid moron.

It specifically says shot. So sure let's expand to include all children shot at school or otherwise.

Can you actually read?
It says school children being shot. Not "die in school schootings". You do realise children get shot outside of school shootings?
