Quick, no Googling: What’s the name of the CEO who was gunned down on the street in Manhattan last week? I’ll be honest. I’ve been covering this case since it happened and even I had to sneak a peek. (It’s Brian Thompson.)
Okay now, what’s the name of the shooter? Got it right away, didn’t you? Luigi Mangione. (Yes, it’s in the headline above, but you knew it anyway.)
Mangione committed a brazen sneak-attack murder of an innocent victim whom he had never met, and who never saw him coming. He shot a 50-year-old man in the back, leaving a wife without her husband and two kids without a father. By any rational calculation, he’s a grotesque villain. I’ll spare you further sermonizing. It’s not complicated, really.
