'Wesley LePatner, CEO of Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, has been evicted from the mortal plane,' read the tasteless post shared on Facebook to thousands of likes.
The dreadful post referenced the infamous Luigi Mangione, accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson on the streets of Midtown Manhattan in a targeted assassination on Dec. 4.
Mangione has become a cult-figure in some gutter-minded circles, which valorize the alleged assassin as a courageous critic of the healthcare industry.
Other dirtbag leftists posted the phrase 'CEO DOWN' and openly mocked the mourning of the mother of two who was killed with an M4 carbine while leaving work during rush-hour Monday.

Maniac Shane Tamura sprayed nearly 50 rounds during NYC Midtown massacre: cops
Maniac Shane Tamura sprayed nearly 50 bullets during his Midtown massacre — as he shot dead four people, including an NYPD officer, according to police and sources. The deranged gunman sprayed most of the bullets across Rudin Management's 33rd-story offices at 345 Park Ave. — which he entered after mistakenly getting off on the wrong floor during his search for the NFL headquarters, authorities said. Cops recovered 24 discharged shell casings and 15 bullet fragments on that floor, which is where Tamura gunned down 27-year-old Julia Hyman, an associate at the real estate company, before turning the weapon on himself, according to cops' initial investigation. 4 Shane Tamura fired nearly 50 bullets during his rampage.

Police found more than 800 unspent 357 Magnum Rounds sitting in the black BMW that Tamura was seen exiting while brazenly carrying an M4 rifle just before storming into the Park Avenue building, according to cops. The crazed gunman immediately delivered a fatal shot at NYPD hero Didarul Islam, who was working an extra shift on a security detail, upon entering around 6:30 p.m., then killing 43-year-old Blackstone executive Wesley LePatner as she hid behind a lobby column and building security guard and father Aland Etienne. who was at his desk. Tamura then took the elevator — shockingly allowing one woman to exit the lift unharmed — and dialed up the violence after apparently realizing his plan to target the NFL fell apart, authorities said. 4 Most of the bullets were sprayed on the 33rd floor, which Tamura had accidentally entered while searching for the NFL headquarters.

REUTERS The madman left behind a suicide note revealing he targeted the sports organization because he believed he was suffering from chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) — despite not playing the sport past high school. Tamura railed against the NFL in the three-page missive, which referred to Terry Long, the former Pittsburgh Steelers player who was diagnosed with CTE after downing antifreeze to kill himself 20 years ago.

The league knowingly concealed the dangers to our brains to maximize profits,' the note read. 4 Police found more than 800 unspent 357 Magnum Rounds sitting in a black BMW that Tamura left behind.
