Separately, he is too intelligent, educated and handsome to spend his entire life in prison while POSs like OJ & Rittenhouse walked and POSs like Trump get to be president (twice!). I hope his hotshot NYC lawyer can get him a lenient sentence and he is treated for whatever physical and/or mental ailments led him to this drastic and atrocious act.


I agree. Prison is not the right place for smart beautiful people. They deserve a free pass, if just to improve our society.


The halo effect this guy is getting is ridiculous. If some homeless guy carried this out the reaction would be different


Dp
If some 26 yo homeless guy who came from a big happy family, went to Penn engineering, and worked in Big Tech, and shot a man dead in Times Square sidewalk at 7am, it would get similar attention.

This had severe mental disorder written all over it.

Or maybe he just thinks he’s that special and great.


No it wouldn't. By then he would be dirty and rumpled and less attractive. The way he looked screeching at the reporters. But instead people are swooning for the guy he looked like a few years ago.


Unf for you his mug shots and Mc D police shot and even orange outfit shots look hot as hell.

Nice and friendly? Did you watch the video of him murdering another human being at close range? I loathe the insurance industry but c’mon.


There are many interviews and reports from people who knew him before this murder and he was indeed described as nice and friendly. You are a fool if you don’t think that will make it into his defense.

I do not support what he did, to be clear.

He took a zip gun and executed someone in the street, a stranger to him, in front of other people.

Where was the same sympathy for the dude who drove up from NC and shot up Comet Pizza? At least it was a registered gun. But he wasn’t rich, young or good looking. He was white though.

And if Luigi is so anti-capitalist, wouldn’t he refuse the money and help his parents can buy in his new fancy lawyer (who is the wife of Diddy’s lawyer, the truth is stranger than fiction).

I have zero sympathy for anyone that starts using any gun to shot people, period.



Glad you don’t know any schizophrenic or bipolar people.


I do. Including one who shot 5 and killed 2 people right in front of me. Your statement makes no sense. Dangerous people do dangerous things, including kill innocent people. And it’s ok, according to you?


Calm down. Nobody here (not speaking about the larger world) is saying it is okay. But trial is trial, and I expect there will be some sort of use of insanity as a defense if it’s possible. We should be able to rationally talk about that without you and other freaking out about how that means people are endorsing murder or whatever. Insanity as a defense has a long history in American jurisprudence. You are going to have to deal with that fact.

Sorry they never got the help they needed until it was too late. Or not at all. What a nightmare.

And it’s genetic.


He did get help. But didn’t want to keep taking his meds and stopped seeing his doctor and no one could force him because he is an adult. So he took his father’s semi automatic weapon and started shooting strangers down the street because he was convinced the government had them reading his “brainwaves”.

I don’t care if it’s genetic. He ruined many people’s lives. He doesn’t get a pass. Luigi’s doesn’t get a pass. FFS.


What prison or care home is your buddy or relative in?

Disagree. Thats all a joke and tries to sell some krap.

This could be any of my son’s wash DC friends a few years out of college. Psychotic breakdown.

Agree with the PPs, this will be a mental disorder case.

I mean, I agree with you. He committed a horrible crime. I want him to be tried and go to prison.

But this thread is just striking to me in how incredibly far out of touch it is. We saw this with the election too. I knew Trump was going to win, as did any one who consumed media and had deep personal contacts outside of the DCUM bubble. And the same thing is going on here. DCUM is full of people adjacent to the victim here. So this thread is full of people genuinely confused about why anyone would support Luigi. However, outside of the DCUM bubble, many people are wildly supportive of Luigi, and they know all the facts you listed out and do not care.

There are votive candles being sold in flea markets with him on it as a saint — patron saint of health care denials, patron saint of the ill. “Deny, defend, depose” is showing up in graffiti, in songs, in clubs, in bars, at freaking sporting events across the country. All social media is filled with FreeLuigi hashtags. Publications have to shut down the comment sections of any article condemning the killing because so many people support it. And on and on and on.

Once again I want to be crystal clear that I 100% do not support Luigi. He need to be tried and what he did was absolutely wrong. I have zero sympathy for people who kill others. But people here do not understand how this event is being experienced outside of the 1%. He is seen as a hero martyr by many, many people.


It’s more of meme culture because he’s hot and on Goodreads, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Tinder, etc. Everyone scooped up his profile the first few hours it was released and it shut down.

It was also an internet meme culture that speculated that it was a HC vendetta killing when they got Thompsons name. Before shooter was found and named.

But ultimately the motive and circumstances will come out in the trial.

He was a nice, smart guy who disappeared and re-appeared a targeted shooter.


Meme culture is only online. But this has escaped outside of the internet.

What is interesting to me from a sociological perspective is that Luigi’s popularity feels a lot like the furious populism that drove the Trump election. Again, that was not a surprise to anyone who was actually listening. But it was a total shock to mainstream media and a lot of DCUM. I sense that same disconnect and gap here.

I feel sorry for Luigi and his family, yes.


Luigi can rot but i feel sorry for his family who were probably unable to help him.


How do you think he found and hired his brand new, high powered NY attorney? And who is paying for her?


Lawyers that wealthy do it for fame.
But the family has the medical records so could have too. Who cares. He’s in prison forever and will be on drugs forever too so he doesn’t flip out on himself or others again.


I am willing to bet good money that he will not be in prison forever. He has a superstar lawyer, the general public’s support, and if he is half as nice and smart as everyone says, he will eventually get parole. If he even gets sentenced in the first place. NYC is AOC and Bernie land sprinkled with some 0.1%ers. All it takes is one sympathetic juror for jury nullification.


I just don’t see a nullification happening. He didn’t even have UHC, and never was a client. This CRO and UHC have had zero interactions with him and his healthcare. He just went after that particular CEO at random because he was a part of “the system.”


But it’s going to be very, very hard to find a jury of people who haven’t had very negative experiences with health insurance, either to them or someone in their family.

Idk. He has become wildly popular across the entire country, shockingly so. There is such an outpouring of rage and fury going on now. I do not think this will be an easy black and white case for a prosecutor.


It doesn’t matter. Most people are sane and won’t see murdering a random insurance CEO in the street as justified. After all, they didn’t feel compelled to do that- even with their own bad experiences.

The internet swooners are a loud minority. Most normal people don’t think this murder is fine


They’re probably too incompetent too.
