Of course it is.  Takes a crazy person to do something like this and most of the extreme right are out of their minds.

Party over country is more of a right leaning ideal if we’re speaking from history.

Okay so by your standards when your wife or boyfriend is shot dead I can rejoice and make disgusting comments ? Cool let me know bro and I will do exactly that.

Anyway following this case , seems to me that the so called hitman must have been stalking this guy for months. Not sure if I would say this is a professional hit, more than likely a mentally disturbed individual who didn't get his own way with the insurance so lets go out and kill the CEO.

Yeah sounding more like a deranged skizofrenic off his med.

But that's not your right to do that

 I don't think the kids would actually care since they just lost their dad.

I get why people are angry but using this guy as a scape goat is probably not I would personally do.

Guy is dead. Family.lost a loved one. Doesn't matter what his job was.

 

Your comments reflect the simple fact... that nearly 150,000 people die every day. And yet, here you are defending the rich because you feel his exit from humanity was mishandled by a mentally disturbed individual, "off his meds" and stalking the man like a hungry tiger in the forest.

You've also backpedaled a few times in your statements when cornered.

So... tell us, what exactly would you do... if you were put in charge of a company, for profit that is, a CEO making millions left and right at the expense of dying clients?

 

Every time you come here, you seem to have put more thought into your replies, so... let's finally hear your righteous and hopefully, final, soapbox rant. How does the holy and pristine handle the evil in this world?

Id be willing to bet he had just as many "fans" on the right as the left. Insurance companies are universally disliked.

He was found with a manifesto criticizing insurance companies for putting profits before people.

Insurance companies are as hated on the left as on the right.

unnecessary thing, however not an event that surprises me. United Healthcare has a wonderful tracking record of denying 90% of all insurance claims according to data. There is motive behind this killing. No one deserves a bullet, however, this man got shot for a reason. Either the shooter or someone in his family got denied coverage or the shooter is an upset employee who was fired. Only time will tell, but these insurance companies are ripping people off every month, charging ridiculous amounts of money only to deny their insurance claims when they need them so maybe this is a lesson to be learned by them and rethink their business models because this kind of atrocities are what happens when you push people to their limits.

I agree and you have a much more mature outlook on this and convey that a human life has been lost. I have been looking at various complaints about the company and denials of medical cover and it’s disgusting. Does not mean that i agree with the sick comments people have made about it. Given that this has made international news , I definetly think you are right there should be much needed changes. I’m not even covered because the pricing and what you get for it does not meet my needs . 
 

I get the frustration people Here have with my disagreement with their sense of justice  like an eye for an eye , I just felt it from my perspective it was a horrible thing see being posted on here .

Honestly having just been reading some stories about the insurance company I will not deny that the sentiments here are actually worth noting and agreeing with.  I can take what people are saying about how profits are being put before people and that is wrong trip.

I just feel morally seeing the comments somewhat celebrating at a death of human being disappointing .

We can agree that this was probably a long time coming and probably hopefully see the government may take notice at this.

Hopefully now we can just agree to disagree on this and just talk about what is going to happen now ? What should change ? So we really think insurance and health care providers are going to just change practices and too denying people Coverage ? Probably not.

Sadly, nothing is going to change in the industry.  They would have to lose a lot of CEOs for any sliver of a chance of change and IMHO that change wouldn't be in how they handle claims.

My thoughts are probit insurance companies from buying other insurance or health related companies, that money should be used for paying claims.

Until we remove greed from society, corporations (and 1 percenters) will never change.

No. As much as I personally loathe the victim who was absolutely stealing our oxygen we can't have vigilante justice.

Where would it end? Who would decide who deserves to die?

America needs to address her corrupt sysytem that lead to this health company abuses and immoral behavior. Fact is, they are only playing by the rules that have been put in place.

Rules that THEY lobbied and bribed to be put in in the first place...  But yes, murder is still murder, no matter how much we might dislike the victim.

That is the real problem. The corrupt U.S system. Mind you, these types of things are just an end result  when politicians on both sides are owned by mega corporations. Their whole system is rotten to the core.
