I think the inscriptions on the bullet casings rule that out, but then again, who knows, that could have been a cover.

Why would this thread get locked, settle down.

I didn't think he deserved to be murdered and I don't have any appreciation for what the American medical system must be like, but I've heard a lot of complaints about it related to insurance.

This suggests to that while probably most don't outright support this murder, I sort of doubt Manny Americans will provide information to the police if they see this guy either.

i'll just say... i've never seen the country as united as in this case... its really shocking... its absolutely wrong to take someone out... however when millions of people have claims denied and die as a result... it will be tough to find sympathy as a direct result of your decisions... it is what it is

English is not my first language, but there was a saying I learned in grade school I vaguely remember
I think it went something like reaping what you sowed or sleeping in the bed you made
Also murder is bad something something

I dunno about this CEO and his story, but it kinda reminded me of that snowshoveling murders+suicide. Ofc that couple didn't deserve to die (imho, needed a fierce scolding or maybe a beating at most) but they definitely FAFO'd w that dude who was supposedly constantly being harassed by them, not to mention his wife recently died of cancer, never mind they were wrong shoveling that snow over to his property. That couple was some pieces of work, the way they spoke you could tell they were low quality.

I agree with most on here that murder is not the answer nor do I agree with an eye for an eye..There are other routes if someone has done wrong..

I can also understand those trying to make claims from a health company getting rejected and possibly passing away, condolences....


Possibly follow the money trail to start..

The man had walked into a McDonald's where a witness recognized him from the images circulated by police

They got him. 26 year old kid named Luigi, found with multiple fake IDs (including one that matches an ID used at a hostel) and a gun with a silencer on it, along with other evidence. Game over.

It's sad that it has to come to this to "expose" the for-profit medical insurance industry and it's long history of denying coverage which is only getting worse. For-profit medical insurance and hospitals shouldn't be a thing. It's not right. It shouldn't be a shock that so many in this country are supportive of this guy's actions. So many feel wronged by this industry so many reasons.

This guy was a super smart kit in HS and graduated from Penn. It will be very interesting to hear his motive. I think he wanted to get caught.

Get it soon, as the McRib is only available for a few weeks as a special promotion while supplies last in the USA.

It has a cult following, and they bring it back for a month or so every few years as a special promotion.....
