55. You don't

really have to explain any of that to me. These are two completely different issues and in no way should be related in a rational mind.
I could write page after page of sh* i've had to deal with regarding insurance. I AM the little guy, they HAVE screwed me, over and over and over. I also don't have any recourse anymore than anyone else. You think I'm siding with these companies who are ripping us off or have some sort of compassion for them? Hell no. If I had my way, health insurance would be illegal. Insurance is one of the top reasons that medical expenses are as high as they are. None of these people care about lowering prices, they actually want them higher. As long as they end up with their cut, none of them care how much of the cost filters down to the consumer. It's a theft and conversion operation.
But see, that isn't even the subject. The subject is justified murder, and there is no such thing. It is absolutely cut and dried. Murder is wrong, period. What the guy did was not "stepping up". It was a low-down evil act and he stooped to do it. He is not a hero, he's the scum of civilization.
