It's probably a variety of reasons but I think most importantly is that humans do generally look up to these people. They see them as their superiors and harming them would cause to lose out on gaining favors and treats that would benefit them. I think most people want the ability to be the ones with the whip over their interiors even if it's more beneficial to actually eliminate that person.

the billionaire is a patsy

More like politicians are a patsy for billionaires, like how kings are a patsy for the nobles. But yeah I know, billionaires only make up 0.1% of the ruling class.

I mean Charlie Kirk got popped but given they had to Luigi some guy named Tyler it was probably a professional.

the key to downfall of elites has often historically been their own security betraying them. Like the freak rapist madman Caligula was killed by his own Praetorian guard who got tired of watching him be a bloodthirsty drunk pedophile day after day. So if you want the elites to get destroyed, Join their security forces then betray them later.

Charlie Kirk is interesting because people hadn't really given a shit about him since 2016-2017. He had a net worth of 12 million and while an effective conservative propagandist wasn't exactly an elite. 12 million isn't much in those circles. And now he's treated as the next coming of Christ because he got his neck popped.

This was mostly because the Praotorian eventually formed their own class with their own interest to protect, this doesn't really apply to modern day security guards, closest equivalent you'd have nowadays are the CIA and FBI

in the 20th century you had a lot of officers' coups. It doesn't seem that unlikely for a leader to be betrayed by their own security forces. Especially as the rate of profit declines, capitalists become more "neofeudal" in character, they pivot to depending on rent instead of profits (see software as a service payment models where they make you pay monthly fees for, what would in the 90s, be a 1 time installation CD commodity, see also how they are buying up all the suburban houses and converting them into rental properties). As capitalists rely less on profit and more on rent, they are also going to spend more of their passive income on private security, because they no longer reinvest their profits into expanding production, but actually stagnate production and simply hoard property. So their private security detail, being paid a portion of surplus value, will eventually form their own group with their own interests who might unionize or get butthurt, or even conspire to overthrow them. Just saying.

too hard, someone will do it tho, SEE YOU IN VALHALLAH

because this type of violence almost exclusively happens in the US, where there is absolutely no class consciousness.
There's enough armed workers that a revolution would be easy, unfortunately workers in the US don't understand that they are oppressed. And they are too individualistic to ever get organized.

Because they're better guarded.

And mass-shooters tend to be psychopaths, which would attract them to far-right ideologies that demonize arbitrary demographics.

I do not understand this "it had to be a pro" narrative, the whole point of guns is that any retard can point and shoot, it's one of the easiest things ever
