    Indeed.

    That being said, from my sampleing of reddit and other comments, about 80% of them were "laughing at it saying, well... I'm surprised this doesn't happens more, this company screwed folks over"

      (a aside, I did not realize that the parent company of United Health Care (where he is CEO) is the 4th largest company in the US by revenue!)

          Any attempt anywhere on the internet to question whether this should be cause for celebration, is sneered at on Reddit. Granted, this is the "leftist" sub, so they're never in a good mood.

            I’ll withhold judgment until the shell casings get a chance to tell their side of the story.

                    I think I have cracked the code using google maps.

                    Brian leaves valet parking (red circle), then walks to where he is shot.

                    Alternatively, since he probably isn't driving himself and getting parking, he stayed at the luxury hotel across the street. He leaves this hotel, crosses the road (where the suspect sees him, and then gets in position), then as he walks by....BOOM.

                    BUT! There is a twist. Look at these incriminating photos. Is this BRIAN!?!?!?1/1questionmark!? WITH THE SHOOTERS WIFE? AND WHATS IN THE GREEN DRINK!???!

                    These are in order of (google streetcar passing) sequence.

                    The yellow camera is what we see footage from:

                    If anyone is keeping score, it turns out this is what actually happened, according to the news.

                                The suspect in the Wednesday morning killing of UnitedHealthcare's CEO in Manhattan reportedly arrived in New York City last month on a Greyhound bus from Atlanta, Georgia, law enforcement sources told FOX News.

                                The shooter boarded a bus in Atlanta the day before Thanksgiving, sources within the New York Police Department said.

                                The trip appears to suggest that the killer knew the conference was coming—he reportedly arrived at the Big Apple’s Port Authority bus terminal on Nov. 24 to prepare. According to Google maps, the ride takes around 17 hours. The suspect used a fake ID to check into a local hostel,

                                Law enforcement officials told CNN that the suspect checked out of the hostel on Nov. 29, then checked back in on Nov. 30. The suspect paid cash for his hostel stay and also allegedly paid cash for Starbucks the morning of the shooting.

                                  https://nypost.com/2024/12/09/us-news/person-of-interest-in-fatal-shooting-of-unitedhealthcare-boss-brian-thompson-idd-as-luigi-mangione-an-ex-ivy-league-student/?utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=nypost&utm_medium=social

                                  The person of interest nabbed in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson is an anti-capitalist Ivy League grad who liked online quotes from “Unabomber’’ Ted Kaczynski — and apparently hated the medical community because of how it treated his sick relative, law-enforcement sources told The Post on Monday.

                                  Tech whiz Luigi Mangione, 26, of Towson, Md., has not been charged but was taken into custody Monday morning at a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pa., after an intense manhunt following the coldblooded execution of Thompson outside a Manhattan hotel last week, sources said.

                                  The former prep-school valedictorian was caught with a gun, silencer, four fake IDs with names used during the killer’s stint in New York City — and a manifesto, sources said.

                                  The manifesto railed against the US healthcare industry, including over its enormous profits and alleged shady motives, sources said.

                                  The weapon?

                                  https://www.yahoo.com/news/gun-killed-unitedhealthcare-ceo-may-171540644.html

                                  Police are looking into the possibility that the shooter used a veterinary pistol, New York Police Department Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny told reporters on Friday.

                                  Such guns are used on farms to euthanize animals quietly, though Kenny said the use of a veterinary pistol hasn't been confirmed.

                                  The gunman immediately fled the scene of the crime and is believed to have already left New York City on a bus. A weapon hasn't been recovered, but sources told the New York Post on Saturday that police divers are looking for the gun in the lake near the Central Park Boathouse.

                                  On Friday, police searching Central Park found a distinctive backpack that may have belonged to the suspected killer. Sourced told the Post that the bag contained a jacket and "high-end" apparel.

                                  Security video shows the gunman firing shots at Thompson using a gun that appeared to be equipped with a silencer.

                                  "It's a very unique weapon. The length of the barrel in that video right there tells us it most probably is a veterinary pistol," he added.

                                  The need to manually reload the weapon contrasts with most handguns, which automatically put a fresh round in the chamber after a shot is fired without having to rack it back by hand.

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