Have you noticed the fetishizing of vigilantes ?
On the one hand we have this Mangione fellow lionized by many as a sort of Jesse James populist hero for anyone with a (legitimate, mainly) beef w/ the US healthcare system ?
on the other Vance/Trump lionizing a man who choked to death an insane fellow on the subway (Vance invited him to his box at the Army/Navy Game).
Its all fairly detestable.
