Unless you have the opportunity to walk up to a rich guy you don't

the sidewalk and shoot him in the back. The only form of the death
penalty
that's okay for the Left is the form that doesn't include a judge,
jury, or
court, and where the executed person has not been charged with,
convicted
of, or even accused of any specific crime.

Not a
straw man. It's what they believe.

Why do you presume Mangione's fandom is "leftist" exclusively?

Because you leftist types love anything that can be portrayed as a

If you don't like the health system, you should be changing the health
system, NOT killing executives from that system. But the Far Left LOVES
the whole notion of destroying the existing system - "burning it all
down" - with only an implied claim that something better will come along
to replace it - eventually - and then failing to deliver.

 I'm with Netanyahu on this one: Kill enough of the enemy's top leaders
all at once till there's someone left who is suddenly willing to come to
terms.
 

I agree that this approach has worked better for Israel than anything else they've ever tried - and they have tried a LOT of things - but I'm not sure murdering insurance executives should be a FIRST resort in reforming health care.

I thought Donald Trump (allegedly) had this big populist appeal going
and one would think that would include sticking it to health
insurance companies.
