The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

That looks like an illegal alien.
Worse. A wop.
When Dago bad, Dago real bad.

He reviewed the unabomber's manifesto on amazon.
When communication fails you have to fight ‘to survive’. No, more like ‘when I can’t convince people of my vision I need to kill them to get my way’.
Not quite as noble sounding.

Just as a statement of practical effect, I think his act will move the conversation and concentrate the public's attention, in ways he wanted.
Maybe in the short term. Does anybody remember what Timothy McVeigh's agenda was at this point, or discuss it if they do?
Proud supporter of Plan 2525. Everything you think, do and say will be in the pill you took today.

The American health care system is an elephant in the room for everybody, and whatever McVeigh's concerns were (I recall something about the Waco siege), pale in comparison for their relatability.
Education is extremely important.

I'm not convinced that murdering people helps in a rational discussion of any cause. I'd honestly have been a lot more sympathetic to Irish nationalists in the north if the Provisional IRA hadn't killed quite so many people. For decades, the debate was all about the violence, and not the very real problems the Catholic minority were facing.

Specifically targeted violence is very different from random terrorist violence.

This reminds me of this scene, starting around the 2:00 mark. Hey, even sounds like you, DOC! (Scottish, close enough?)

The IRA killed plenty of specific targets - Airey Neave, Louis Mountbatten, Ross McWhirter, numerous politicians nobody over here has heard of.
You think blowing up the Conservative party conference hotel is untargeted?

Some successfully targeted attacks do not cancel out a bunch of random civilian deaths in other attacks, obviously.
Anyway, you can go ahead and believe the public will be sad about this murder next week, and that health insurance will be an afterthought. It'll just take a week to prove you wrong.

It'll be Bragg prosecuting him. Watch him offer a plea deal with a single digit jail sentence.

I'd bet yes, if for no other reason than incumbency and name recognition.

There are rumors of Federal Charges.
I suspect they'd need terrorism charges to do that. Which I think are appropriate.
