BREAKING: Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare, was shot and killed by a masked man near a Midtown Manhattan hotel early Wednesday, according to police sources.

The shooting appears to be targeted but police do not know the motive — Thompson was in New York City for an investors conference and his schedule was widely known, police sources said.

The gunman, who was wearing a ski mask, fled down an alleyway near West 55th Street and remains at large.

Just saw that...

Very sad, 50 years old.

I've been so jaded by the media and politics that I won't believe what is initially said. Even if it's true for a change. Which is by design.. right?

If the powers-that-be can't have derision and separation of people, they'll take apathy. The media needs the clicks and views, so they'll lead you where they want regardless of what's true or fair, always down the path of fear. But I digress....

Back to the topic: obviously this wasn't a random act. He was targeted. We can all guess why.

Says he had a lot of recent threats, I would think with that, he would have had around the clock security and not have been so public.

Does this fall under fuck around and find out?

I don’t advocate violence but I could easily see someone pushed to the brink insurance wise doing so.

Definitely a hit.

It’s always possible that this is a normy brought to the brink by medical bills and bureacracy, but I’d put my money on dude wronged the wrong people, someone wanted his job, or wife wanted out of the relationship or something like that and hired it done.
