    shooter and ceo were closer in class than the shooter and working class

    Ah, good ol’ “anyone who makes enough money to pay rent is part of the capitalist class, not the working class”

      Family supposedly owns a country club. Prominent baltimore family. If that is so, that is definitely up there in the capitalist class and not working class. Still was rooting for him. Just would have alot cooler if was a working class guy.

        He was a white collar working class guy. His work history is full of positions at various tech companies working as an engineer. It doesn’t appear that he was handed any sort of dynasty.

        He was upper class, and he had better opportunities than your average American, but he was still a worker.
