No due process, no legal representation, just some angry person who feels he was wronged or on some crusade gets to be the judge, jury, and executioner. All I can say is if the majority of people really do feel this way, we are already lost as a country.

I think that 2 things can be TRUE at the same time. It is terrible that someone is murdered! But, we have a problem in this country with too much money going upward after about 1970. The middle class became weaker and the upper class became much, much stronger. The enemy is the tax rate levels, not one particular UHC executive that just took advantage of the system.
........The shooter is being thought of as a Robin Hood figure. That is wrong, but his glorification "POINTS OUT" that the average US citizen has lost money and power after the tax changes around 1970
..........The US would be much stronger and more stable IF SOMEHOW it could go back to the tax levels of the 50s and 60s. When, not coincidentally, America really was GREAT.
