“To the Feds, I'll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn't working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience. The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it. My tech is pretty locked down because I work in engineering so probably not much info there. I do apologize for any strife of traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming. A reminder: the US has the #1 most expensive healthcare system in the world, yet we rank roughly #42 in life expectancy. United is the [indecipherable] largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart. It has grown and grown, but as our life expectancy? No the reality is, these [indecipherable] have simply gotten too powerful, and they continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allwed them to get away with it. Obviously the problem is more complex, but I do not have space, and frankly I do not pretend to be the most qualified person to lay out the full argument. But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.”

Post got removed in .world for not being a "news source" even though Klippenstein is definitely a very established independent journalist, so trying again here I guess.

First off, I'm no murican, I just feel pity for them.l and cheered for Luigi. I am actually enjoying the best of healthcare for free.

I am also surprised it took that long, but still. I'm pretty sure it won't happen again. And he will be put away for long and most likely not survive it. As to the why...it's one thing to be a poor whacko with access to guns. It's another thing to actually get mentally all the way to being at peace with ending your life basically, plan ahead and then even have the balls to actually pull the trigger. And even if, where are those people. You need to study their routine to find a good place to do it.

That's probably why it's so rare. The though-process to even get this far, the ethics to support it AND then the ability to act upon it.

Millions are pissed, but way too few fulfil the "requirements". Probably even less after the example they might make of him.
