    They should keep his body in a building central to the insurance HQs. For every single denied claim going forward, that insurance companies CEOs should have to eat a small piece of his decaying corpse to get the denial approved. Once the body is all gone, they need to replenish the CEO body stock if they want to continue denying claims…

    I’d like to add that the more I think about it, this is the logical eventual outcome to for-profit healthcare. How long it takes to get to this point seems like it would vary with a few other factors, but I guess we’ve reached it now for this timeline.

    I bet the hitman was hired by the aggrieved parent of a child that was forced to die for profit. Dolla dolla bill.

        Whichever you prefer. My 2 cents is that it’s probably a hitman. But it doesn’t matter, does it.

        It seems he had to clear multiple malfunctions, and that suggests his firearm was poorly setup with the suppressor.

          I’m also of the mind that knowing the limitations of his setup, he trained around his need to manually cycle his weapon. In the video, he did so smoothly and efficiently without any perceptible panic in his movements.

          Curous to know more about this as a person with very little understanding of the actual functionality of guns

            So, many older pistol designs used a barrel in a fixed position in relation to the pistols frame. Due to this configuration, the added weight of a suppressor hanging from the barrel does not impede the mechanical operation of the slide cycling.

            Modern pistol designs utilize variations of John Brownings tilting barrel design. Because the barrel tilts during the cycling of the pistol, the weight of the suppressor interrupts the movement of the barrel and slide preventing a full stroke of the slide to eject the spent case and feed another round from the magazine. Not good.

            In response, something called a Nielsen device was developed, basically a cylinder with a spring in it that encourages the pistol slide to fully cycle. These are sometimes referred to as a “piston” or “booster”.

            Suppressors are heavily regulated by the ATF, and id have to guess that when seeking one on the grey or black market, or manufacturing your own, a Nielsen device is not easy to replicate with crude means, nor easy to find on the street.

            TL:DR dude was missing a part that makes a pistol work more gooder with a suppressor.
