“Our health system needs to be better … There’s a lot of things that should cause a lot of outrage,” Amazon Pharmacy Chief Medical Officer Vin Gupta said. “It’s also true that that (killing) should not have happened. There cannot be this false moral equivalence in our discourse.”

It’d be real funny and depressing if THIS is what brings about gun control in America.
Doing the Bojack “America hates women more then it loves guns” bit, but with CEOs.
Maybe the individualist and personnel nature of the assassination hits elites who dogmatically subscribe to individualist ideologies much harder
“Ha ha, don’t kill a health insurance CEO, you’re so healthy”
