Based on the stats that I have seen, United Healthcare is the market leader in claims denied.


UHC is infamous for how truly awful it is.



The public's reaction to this shooting seems to range from apathy to pure glee. I wouldn't be surprised if this incident inspired copycats.


Undoubtedly a direct correlation to the apathy and glee that UHC exhibits in denying claims.


I have met way too many people who own firearms and dream about using them. A corrupt government that they are resisting or an armed intruder. They HOPE to be robbed. I can only imagine the number of folk with firearms that are lining up to duplicate this crime.

This is what happens when our justice system fails, and lets corporate villains walk free while victimizing thousands or even millions of people. We get armed vigilantes in the streets shooting whoever they damn well please.


Kill one person on the street and it is called "murder".

Kill thousands of people by denying them health care and it's called "business".
