Sen. Elizabeth Warren outrageously sympathized with the killer of former UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson — and others who cheered the murderer on — claiming “people can only be pushed so far,” before condemning the violence.
“The visceral response from people across the country who feel cheated, ripped off, and threatened by the vile practices of their insurance companies should be a warning to everyone in the healthcare system,” Warren (D-Mass.) told the Huffington Post in an interview.
“Violence is never the answer, but people can only be pushed so far.”
In a subsequent statement, the Massachusetts senator added: “Violence is never the answer. Period. I should have been much clearer that there is never a justification for murder.”
Last Wednesday morning, a gunman shot Thompson, 50, in the back of his head outside a Sixth Avenue hotel.
UnitedHealthcare is the largest private health insurance provider in the US.;
Since then, authorities have apprehended tech whiz Luigi Mangione, 26, as the suspected assassin.
Investigators have speculated that Mangione may have had a grudge against the healthcare industry as evidenced by an X-ray photo on his X account and the fact that he had books involving chronic back pain on his Goodreads account reading list, sources previously told The Post.
Strikingly, an outcry of netizens has cheered the slaying of Thompson, ripping into the US healthcare system. This included former Washington Post media journalist Taylor Lorenz taking “joy” in the killing.

I thought Obamacare was going to fix our healthcare insurance system.
When the truth comes out about the Deep State and how our Ruling Class hates the peasants and wants to destroy us -- "they won't be able to walk down the street".
Hopefully, she will remember that she sympathized with people who had been pushed too far and who reached a breaking point and took action.
So let’s follow this line of reasoning to see what happens: if politicians keep pushing people further and further, she’d be okay with a Luigi going after politicians, right? Say, going after some blowhard like Schiff, or her?
This is what is wrong with her reasoning.
Justifying and excusing the action because she just doesn’t like the person who died for political reasons.
Justifying violence against people like that, not cool Warren, not cool.
I’m sure that many here would not have had a problem with any health insurance company for over a decade - because the Democrats’ PPACA made health insurance too expensive.
Ignorance is familiar to her. loseruigi-—hero. Dan Penny-—cold blooded killer. That about right liawatha?

Well, she pushes me only so far with her insanity. Guess I should stalk her and....
He should have shot her for Obamacare.
Warren is that friggen Karen who just can’t keep her damned mouth shut.
Could anyone imagine if they investigated and prayed the death of Ashlii Babbit

“Warren is that friggen Karen who just can’t keep her damned mouth shut.”
Normally she’s pretty quiet except for election time - then she goes on the verbal warpath.
Warren thinks socialism has not been given a chance to work. Elites always disrupt.
RAT party using Penny verdict and Healthcare CEO assassination to gin up Antifa/BLM riots to start around Trumps inauguration.
Ms. Warren (she of stolen ancestry career priority) should spend some time speaking with patients from Canada, England, and Scotland (among other places). While far from perfect, our medical system is superior to all others.
And, her sympathizing with a murderer?
Disgraceful and unbackwalkably part of her permanent online record.
The politicians are responsible for this mess. Before Obama care I could afford Health care, had a primary physician that could order tests and meds without following “protocol” which made care cheaper.
Liawatha just pushed me too far.
You expected something else from a fake Indian commie?
