Wonder if there's a connection here:

Keep fucking with people, this is what happens. Cannot and will not condone breaking the law but I dare say if more antics like this happened,there would be less fuckery. After all, the greed pigs aren't stupid. They can put 2 and 2 together and make 4 just like everyone else. They want to live too. Scaring the shit out of them with a little 'dark alley justice' seems a very attractive way to slap their heads into a point regarding this shit they do to people.
Of course the trash I'm talking here leads to social chaos and we can't have that. Regardless of how emotionally satisfying it might be.

I remember years ago when the FL and I had health insurance policies with Humana. She had a consultation with her gynecologist about approaching menopause.
Humana denied coverage for this consult as they ruled her policy didn´t cover menstrual disorders.
A few years later she rolled her pickup truck in rural New Mexico, fractured C1-2 vertebrae, a MedEvac was called in to fly her to a hospital in El Paso. Humana initially denied coverage on this as the helicopter was ruled out of network.
Got a bill for thirty-some thousand, not sure how many nanoseconds passed before that hit the bottom of the trash can.
Congrats on that Prez!

I shit you not, that is what a few different Humana reps told me their determination was when I called and questioned why they would not cover her gynecological appointment concerning menopause.
I remember that quite clearly though not at all sure what year it was, sometime around when the Affordable Care Act/Obamacare began to kick in probably. That would match with FL hitting her early 50s. Guess it was about the time she broke her neck, after all.
Also, the downside, initially, to the ACA for self-employed people on their own when it came to securing health insurance was that it caused prices to spike as ACA policies had to expand coverages such as for preexisting conditions. For a while cheaper non ACA-compliant policies were grandfathered in, that´s what we had for years. Our income was too high for us to be eligible for ACA tax subsidies.
Good ACA-compliant policies without those subsidies were way more expensive that what we were already paying for our somewhat shitty but serviceable policies. If your health insurance company wouldn´t cover what seemed to be obligated to cover it would be up to you to call and request that the claim be resubmitted.
When it was, again, denied it would be up to you to call and request that the claim be resubmitted, again. And so on, again and again. I learned to be polite to the representatives on the phone, they were the only people who could possibly help you, weren´t the boss that had driven a BMW to work that day.
Eventually an expensive claim either would be covered or it would go unpaid. That was my experience.

Caught him.
The shooting was fairly well-planned, but he really didn't take enough care covering his pretty face up or he might have got away with it.
As Fark put it: It's a me, Luigi.

First thing I´d have done was buy a goddamn Norelco, gotten rid of those Worf, son of Mogh, brows. Pair of glasses with some big ass frames would have helped. And maybe just stayed in the woods for a while, fucking McDonald´s, what an idiot.

Well his heart was in the right.... spot. Wait! What?
He'll serve as a learning experience for others perhaps.

It looks to me that he wanted to be caught.
Interesting divide happening between the jillions of people revering him as a hero and the rest.
