That entire reaction to that case was the warning that things in America were going sour. Desensitization from violence and “the ends justifying the means”. It’s incredibly dark.
Yep.
Don’t think the right wing isn’t taking notes feverishly, too. If progressives are seen as being fine with what he did, then it’s just a matter of time until RW hit squads start dropping people they don’t like in the streets. And I think they’ll be a lot more capable at it because many of them are prior military.
This is a bad direction we’re heading down.
If they drop more rich people profiting off killing the rest of us, I'm perfectly okay with it. They may wear suits and ties, but make no mistake, the people running these mega corporations prioritizing profit over everything are cold blooded murderers. The system is failing to address their crimes, and thus the people eventually will.
The social order is a contract. The rich are the ones breaking it.
Most of the posters on this forum are “the rich”. Ask them.
Are you ok with getting shot? Are you ready to be murdered?
I'm not talking about DCUM rich. I'm talking the billionaires who influence enture industries, exploit workers for profits, and who knowingly destroy the environment, all because line must go up. The reason we're in this mess is because so many of you fools think you're the freaking rich. You're not the rich dummy.

What we've said is that we understand the rage that drove him.
You can try to dismiss the anger engendered by the $%*€} up system, or you can think "Whoa, what makes a smart if mentally ill person view a healthcare CEO as an evildoer deserving of death?"
The killing was not okay, but it is a sign of a huge problem in health insurance.

Meanwhile, these healthcare CEO's are making tens of millions of dollars in salary. While I would never advocate for violence this goes in the category of I don't GAF.

Dems seem happy to say they solved healthcare with Obamacare, but the facts on the ground is that we did not. Dem Sec Kennedy is not wrong to say the healthcare system is broken - we spend more $$ for worse outcomes. Where are the calls for reform???

I pray he is acquitted.

National hero.
Will you say the same about the person who shoots a notable liberal in the back?
???
The guy wasn't shot because he was right-wing. He was shot because he's a healthcare CEO. The health insurance system is a disaster of opposing interests.
If you have GEHA--which is owned by United Healthcare--and you've gotten any medical services lately, you can probably relate to Luigi. I sure can. They have cost me hours and hours of time by their willful mishandling of claims.
I had huge problems with Aetna after paying $2600 a month premiums as a self employed family. Luigi had the right idea!

Leave it to the U.S. healthcare system to profit off people’s health problems and not GAF if you get care or not as long as they make a profit.

Or perhaps you need to have some desperately needed health insurance coverage be denied and then report back how you feel about Luigi.
NP I have stage 4 breast cancer and understand the frustration. I would NEVER condone violence or murder. Ever.
Has your medical treatment been denied.
Can you pay for a procedure out of pocket? Can you get a quote on how much a procedure will cost? Can you get a payment plan? Can you just write a check for say a C-section when you are also paying $2600 a month in premiums?
