"He who saves his Country does not violate any Law," Trump, a Republican, proclaimed on his Truth Social network. The White House did not respond to a request for more details.

Please tell me why this guy is your hero? I really do not understand why he's in that position after a murder. He even shot him in the back, cowardly so. You want to make a point, write a letter. Killing of a human being is not something that should be used to protest a bad decision on your health care ffs. Are you saying this is the way we should deal with matters like this?
We need to recognise social murder as murder.
Thousands of people die preventable deaths every day because of health insurance not covering basic measures, but people online spend more effort defending the life of one CEO, than those millions of cumulative deaths.
The unheard pleas and screams for help of millions of people are being ignored so a couple rich people can uphold their hierarchy. It’s inevitable that some of the oppressed people will crack, here it was Luigi, a rich and privileged kid, who couldn’t deal with the sort of stuff poor disabled and marginalised folk deal with every day.
But yet we also see him as a sort of symbol, standing for the collective pain we have felt, the relatives and friends who have died preventable deaths, someone who stood up and sent a message to the people causing so much suffering.
Most won’t agree with how he did it, and that’s okay, but you’ve got to admit, your “letter” comparison doesn’t make sense. He could have sent a letter, and it would have been ignored, just like the millions of pleas for help were.
My letter comment was vague. What I really was trying to say if there are so many refusals then why not collectively arrange a formal complaint with authorities?
