I suppose it was smart of Jen Sorensen to include "A pre-emptive alert for the satire-challenged":
This strip is obviously not endorsing violence against bankers. It is
saying that many in the financial world are real thugs who are never
treated the way police often treat black citizens in Ferguson and many
other places. The devastation caused by white-collar criminals — the
loss of so many people’s homes and life savings, leading to broken
families, poor health, depression, and suicide, has caused suffering on
an immense scale. Yet bankers have to try very, very hard to get
themselves arrested, and even then they usually aren’t successful.
