Cap a banker

Maybe the storm has died down, but last week it felt for sure that one of these days, an investment banker's gonna get capped by some pitchfork-wielding outraged populist, and then Obama will inevitably get on TV and give a cathartic calm down speech which will heal the wounds that run deep. And, since it's gonna happen, the government might as well arrange it so it happens right. So handpick some onerous AIG exec and have a deep subterranean FBI operative (maybe one of Jack Bauer's team) to blow the guy's head off with a shotgun outside the WaWa's in Wilton and then disappear into the either.

Or, as I said, maybe the storm has passed and this only makes sense as a TV show.
