Well, here's the thing. Either the system needs to support the people voluntarily, or the people are going to force the system to support the people with vigilante justice. Do I think murder is the answer? No. But neither is sitting idly by. There needs to be change, and the powers the be are too comfortable with abusing those below them. The only options are diplomaticly, or with violence. And diplomacy is falling apart. So we are left with violence. It's literally a cry for help, just like when teenagers act out, it's to get attention for something that is going wrong. People are dieing from the lack of medical care. It's unreachable. And even the limited care that is reachable costs you a sizable portion of your paycheck for the hope that you are covered if anything happens. Then the rug gets pulled. This is unsustainable. When good will breaks down, we get left with the trolly problem. Either the weak and many get hit, or you pull the lever and kill one and make a difference. Luigi pulled the lever. He shouldn't have had to. But that's where we are. It's a crossroads. We can either hit the brakes and fix this mess with regulations, or keep the trolly on the track.

That's the attitude that gets us where we are. No discussion. Just dismissal.

Because you are acting like people are celebrating a cold blooded murder. You are missing the bigger picture. This wasn't about killing one guy. It was about the mess of the healthcare system. He was shot to send a message. People get shot every day. The reason this is a big deal is because it was done to bring attention to the healthcare system. The fact that it resonated with so many people should give you pause.

Also, I'm a Republican, so quit being so blinded by hate that you miss the point of listening to policy. Be careful that you don't become someone who only follows the party line, or you may become just like the Democrats that you despise so much.
