There's only one thing I feel sad about this, that we will probably never know who did this or see him. Because he seems like a really cool guy.
I see him every day. In the face of every flower. In the laughter of a child.
it's not who it is underneath, but what they do that defines them. They're everyone and no one, they're you and me.
if you embody the spirit of humanity, you too can be the Adjuster

There will be a lot of work on the other end -- protecting individual CEOs. Some will want to emulate the whole secret service. That will be untenable, though; are we really going to shut down major highways not just for presidential visits but for anyone on the forbes 400? They'll decide it's more efficient if they come under actual secret service protection. A significant proportion of our future comrades will point to the day the feds just straight-up listed out who's in charge as their radicalizing experience.
I hope so. Nothing will absolutely annihilate public opinion like making people late for work or dinner.
