View submission: The UnitedHealthcare Gunman Understands the Surveillance State
Probably the wrong place to say this, but the police response to this isn't because of who he is, it's because of the motive. The motive is destabilizing.
If a CEO was killed during a mugging, it would be second page news for a day.

They would still go crazy to solve it in a mugging, because they can't have the CEO community swearing off NYC.
Actually, the Mayor and PD are probably relived it wasn't a homeless dude that killed him, because they don't have any answer for that. A skilled assassin is a flukey thing that doesn't really reflect on the city, but more reflects the victim.

I wonder if some of the cops have also been screwed over by health insurance companies might be sympathetic towards the killer.
