We still don't know shit about the Route 91 shooter
There are still clickbait articles online that make a big deal about "no motive" being discovered.

But in my mind, the motive was obvious the night the tragedy occurred. He was a deranged psychopath, and his desire to become famous was fulfilled. Searching for anything else is just a waste of time.

There's no doubt that compounds the pain of the survivors and family members of the deceased. But it's all they're going to get.

Yep, sometimes crazy and being pissed off at the world is a lethal combination.🙁

I’ll decide how to waste my time thank you very much. 😉
It doesn’t take a whole lot of research to see other connections, whether applicable or not.

I always thought the additional "hate crime" enhancement made to murder charges was redundant. If a person plots and schemes to take another's life, they've already admitted the hate involved. Doesn't matter rich, poor, skin color, religion or sexual preference...there is hate of some type in premeditated murder.

They are calling the shooter "The Claims Adjuster."

Anthem quickly reversed their outrageous limitations on anesthesia right after this incident. They knew it was a fucked-up thing to do.

Changes need to be made. More over-site.

Probably feel the same lack of sympathy and some jealousy for his boats. Hard to view someone as a human being when they view me and my family as an unacceptable expenditure. I currently have a health issue going on. I've been receiving the standard care for it with limited success. My Dr wants to step up to the gold standard treatment and the insurance denied the treatment due to its expense. So yeah, not saying no sympathy, just saying I'm struggling to have a lot of sympathy for the person heading up the company that has reduced me to a financial decision.

Just saw this🤔

Monopoly money? Is that because the healthcare industry is turning into a monopoly? Or is it something else, what say resident LEO? What is everyone else's thoughts? Is there a connection of the monopoly money to the Tommy Hilfiger jacket?

I understand if it affects you personally. This guy may have been responsible for terrible stuff but hard for me to be okay with his murder. After all, a couple people tried to murder Trump because they thought he has done terrible stuff. Kind of a slippery slope once you go down the road of killing people because you don't like what they have done. There are plenty of people in government that I'd like to see brought to justice but I would not condone some random individual murdering them just because I don't like them.

People celebrating the murder of a person on a street are the problem. RIP.

Do I agree with the BS in the HC industry = hell no. Do I think the CEO should be taken out for being CEO = hell no. Is HC in the US out of control on costs and insurance limiting what gets approved / paid = Yes

Don't know if I'm ok with it, but I don't feel a lot of sympathy. If that makes sense.

My wife needed life saving surgeries, MRI's, PET Scans, etc., with 50 to 25% of them being denied & we had to go back & forth, on & on, to either get it taken care of or forgo it. Mind you we have an excellent, high dollar PPO plan.

We also knew somebody that fielded the calls for Blue Cross, this was decades ago, and they were told, even back then, to deny, deny, deny, depending on what it was I imagine, until the patient gives up or it's finally approved. Get's very frustrating when these companies play God. Now if you've never been involved & seen this in action, one may have a tendency to not care about this, but it's a real problem if you're fighting for your life.

Not a Well Rod, and the gun didn’t jam:

I Scrubbed to 5:00 where the subject begins:
That makes more sense, because the perp seemed to by cycling a normal slide type weapon. Plus I read somewhere that there were also 2 or 3 unspent rounds on the ground, in addition to the 3 casings with the words written on them.

The reporting on this has been terrible. No definitive news on the number of spent casings and unspent rounds on the ground. The reporting has said both the words were engraved, and hand written with a sharpie. Which is it? How many unspent rounds were on the ground? Etc...

The reporting on everything has been terrible. There are no more real news people. Just throw shit out and never worry about the facts.

According to chrome dome there in the educational link there were 3 spent rounds, 3 un-spent rounds with the words written on them.

Go to the 1:00 mark. I agree that it was most likely a semiauto with a suppressor (looks like a Glock to me).

They still don’t know who their looking for? 48+ hours later?
Retired NYC Detectives that now live in Simi and hang out at the Elks concur it was a “Green Light hit” and the suspect is “In the wind.”

In other words, their words not mine, a paid hit with the suspect long gone.
Probably back in Ukraine by now.

My take is eventually DNA will lead to a suspect.

I wonder if the person standing in the corner of the building shit themselves when the shooting started or after they got away unharmed and un-clinched? That's about as close as one would ever want to be during a random shooting/assassination. The story they could tell.

Yeah, Ya gotta hold a Glock just so, otherwise you slice your thumb.

Just a thought…..Trump stated he could murder someone on 5th Avenue, and get away with it in 2016.

United Healthcare CEO was on 6th Avenue. 🤔

Just read that this CEO was executed 1 day prior to testifying for insider trading by Pelosi.

My gut tells me this is false news, I’ve read it also, but I’ve yet to see anything actually back that up. However, if that ever actually fact checks, my hypothesis has been spot on from jump street.

Which brings me right back to my original question, what the fuck happened, how does killing the CEO change anything?
Its revenge. Ceo instituted policies that placed corporate greed above the policy holders. I am not saying profit is bad. But if you are denying legitmate claims for profit that is bad.

I would say someone lost a loved one and in a company who better to take it out on. Just speculation.
