James Harr, the founder of Comrade Workwear, took to TikTok to explain the game. Harr listed several of the CEOs featured in the deck, including the heads of Walmart, Northrop Grumman, Dow Chemical, Shell and the Sackler family.

One side of each card displays the CEO and a QR code. However, the other side features an image of a shooting target.

The game’s debut comes in the wake of the Dec. 4 killing of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York City. Harr praised the assassination in a TikTok video, calling Thompson’s death “good news” and describing the assassin as a hero.

Harr said police visited him on the morning of Monday, Dec. 16.

“Well, the cops showed up at my door this morning,” Harr said. “I guess making CEO Most Wanted playing cards gets you noticed. But don’t worry, I’m all good on the police front of things for now.”

Harr responded with a statement to FOX Business.

“I’m not suggesting anyone should cause any physical harm to anyone, but I do want people to know who is making their life harder, who is stealing from them, who is deciding that a couple more percentage points of profit is worth the life of your loved ones,” Harr said in the statement.

While polls show that the majority of Americans disapprove of celebrating Thompson’s death, some people have expressed support for the assassin, Luigi Mangione.

A backpack company in San Francisco has faced harassment after it was revealed the owner had tipped off police in an effort to help authorities locate Mangione when he was on the run.
