I’m seeing a lot of people suggest that healthcare CEOs should go into hiding or employ more private security and I could not possibly disagree more. You can't live the rest of your life in fear. I think it's imperative that they get back to work, in person at least 3 days a week at the headquarters address listed on their company's website.

There may be some truth to that, but this totally was an assassination.

The part about the manner in which it cycles that the nimrods at the NYPD miss is that you have to twist the back end to unlock the action to be able to pull the bolt back to cycle it. It does not match the way the assassin was operating the pistol that he had.

Yeah, that’s a piece of information from the NYPD that I would put hard money down. Will turn out to be false. They are staying 100% on brand with regards to their history of not knowing anything about guns.

I don’t know, I think it might take a little longer than that.

https://old.reddit.com/r/news/comments/1h7kb2l/anthem_blue_cross_blue_shield_halts_anesthesia/m0lsen8/ it looks as if the C suites for the entire industry are bloody well terrified.

It’s all very neat, maybe a little too much so. I will give you that. On the other hand, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. However, I can pretty much guarantee that the fervent prayer in every C suite in the industry is that this turns out to be about anything at all other than how UHC did business. like if it were to turn out to be a professional hint because of some sort of personal peccadillo, you would be able to hear the sighs of relief from NYC all the way in your house.

I do feel for the man’s family. This has got to be a terrible situation for them and a horrible loss personally. On the other hand, this sentiment, doesn’t come from nowhere. For evidence of that, may I present exhibit a: however, it does appear that others in the industry might actually be taking the hint.

Not to mention that the harshest condemnation I’ve seen about this has been “I’m not saying I condone it, but I understand.”

I would attribute the live rounds to knowing it’s not a guaranteed cycle so choosing to manually cycle it each time regardless. I mean, if I had a single target and was using the same equipment, I wouldn’t quibble about a few wasted rounds to ensure my shots counted. Still, first shot hit him in the calf so we aren’t exactly talking about John Wick here. End results do speak for themselves though.

I expect that we will discover that this is a handmade silencer. I also think that in light of that, he made a deliberate decision to manually cycle, the pistol, instead of attempting to manufacture a Nelson device to provide the requisite back pressure necessary to cycle a silenced pistol. His target was in Midtown Manhattan, and the likelihood of encountering any sort of armed response, was extremely low. That said, I do not believe based upon the reporting available that this was a pro. This was very likely a highly motivated individual with a personal act to grind who put a lot of planning into the assassination. The casings found at the scene had “deny“ “defend“ and “depose“ written on them. It is believed that it is a reference to this book. https://delaydenydefend.com/ While this particular solution isn’t in the book, it does appear that the assassin took the subtitle too heart and decided to do something about it. The online reaction has been something to watch. The Internet as a whole has pretty much zero sympathy for the deceased, and in many cases is expressing quite a lot of glee regarding the events. I doubt seriously that those in the industry will engage in any amount of introspection with regards to why the public has reacted the way they have, but I will be highly interested in this trial if they do catch him alive. I expect that his defense attorneys will put UHC and by proxy the entire insurance industry on trial. This guy could very well turn into a Marvin Heemeyer style folk hero, but at a much larger scale. Most people don’t have much of a beef with their local governments. The number of people who feel that the health insurance industry have wronged them easily numbers into the tens of millions, if not most of the country.

I’m sorry. I sold this off board and forgot to come and close out the ad. My bad.

Very cool. We’ve got quite a few Union faculty at our church.

Grad school? Union?

Yeah, generally there’s Illinois and then the Chicagoland area. Two totally different things. Same dynamic goes for California and New York. Sadly, I fear we’re on the same path with Nashville/Memphis and then the rest of the state.

Crap. Shared the wrong link. That’s from an earlier action in the case. Here is today’s.

I forgot to put the damn picture in the post.

And Tapatalk to post.

All of my AR platform guns have a LaRue MBT2S in them. It’s an excellent trigger that will be better than 95% of shooters will be able to utilize. The story about how it came about is funny as #### to me as well. Geiselle used to buy components from Mark LaRue with the understanding that he wouldn’t make them himself. Then he did. So Mark LaRue began to make triggers as good as Geiselle to compete with Big Trigger and priced well under his simply as a troll. Mark LaRue is absolutely my kind of asshole.
