 So.  I am wrong about Luigi's choice of target.  Apparently he had with him journals that followed his train of thought as he selected his target.  He chose his target specifically to avoid collateral death.  So.

I have taped a 2020 Special Edition TV episode about Luigi, but I have resisted watching it because I know the slant on it could power a luge track.  I am more interested in what the culture (our culture) is doing with Luigi and his actions because, for the most part, this is not directed by a rational plan by people with an agenda.  This is the collective unconscious struggling to assign him a place in our myths.  

I have reached a snarl in my detection process, and I think it is because something rational has crept into the process, and is trying to deliberately force the myth instead of just being the conduit of the myth. 

So... cover me - I'm going in (to the TV report).

 So, information of salience:

United Health Care is the largest private health insurance company in the USA.
Luigi was never a customer of UHC.
The morning of the shooting, UHC was having an investor conference.
In his note book Luigi wrote" Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming." and "What do you do?  You wack the CEO at the parasitic bean-counter convention."


Information that feels like it should matter more than I think it does.

He is from a well-to-do, prominent family in Baltimore. 


Unself-critical comment by reporter.

A CEO apologist actually  said, "He was just doing a job."  I hear echoes of  "I was only following orders."
