Conceptually it’s insane that if you *really* want to you can kill almost any individual in the country.

I hate to say it but my first reaction is concern about the rhetoric around “greedy insurance companies” and “evil CEOs” (that I have definitely participated in). Just feels so targeted.

Masked man hitting the CEO at the investors meeting strikes me as someone who didnt know him that had a vendetta against UHC unfortunately. Not great if thats the case. Might inspire a copycat or two

I have a feeling we’re about to enter an era where we have a lot of (attempted or successful) assassinations and quasi-assassinations like this one.

>The suspect is described as a white male wearing a black hoodie, black pants, black sneakers with a white trim and a gray backpack, the person said. The suspect is also described as using a firearm **with a silencer**, the person added.
>A hot dog vendor near the Hilton who was present at 6:30 a.m. ET said he **did not hear any gunshots** but noticed a sudden swarm of police. A Hilton doorman who began his shift at 7:00 am ET said everything appeared to be “pretty normal” at the hotel. Both people asked not to be named.
This appears to be targeted. Petty thieves don’t bring guns to midtown Manhattan, much less ones with silencers
