I want to know how much of the "up to" 60k reward this person got and how they spend it.
- You mean the $60k bounty? The cops will happily relinquish that $50k as promised. Keep in mind that the $40k will only be given if it leads to a conviction, though, and the bank will probably put a hold on the full $30k. But that's OK. $20k is still a life-changing amount, even if you won't get all of the promised $10k after taxes.
  
  Hey, it's amazing what you can do with $5k. You can get a brand new iPad Pro for $999.
  
  Their reward is fulling their duty to their betters at the Capital!
  May the odds be ever in their favor.
- It was done on the clock. So the restaurant owner is going to claim it.
  I don't know if this is /s or not at this point.
- As someone else suggested, probably health insurance
- Personal security
- It's always surprising how little it takes for the rich to make people turn against others.
  
  Feature, not a bug. It would be much more expensive for them so pull something like this off if our needs were met.
  
  Hell, $60k? You can buy a senator for less.

- A $15 Big Mac meal made me angry, but this is it.
  
  Don’t forget letting Trump use them for a photo op

He was carrying around the gun and a manifesto... he was trying to be caught. Dude probably was going out to eat every meal and getting frustrated that no one called the cops on him till today.
- Carrying the gun seems particularly fucking stupid.
  
  Like suspiciously stupid. Getting caught, even if you get your manifesto out there, doesn't really help your cause. Disappearing; leaving a constant doubt of a professional killer hunting insurance CEOs would.
  So here's hoping Luigi plays along for a couple weeks and goes "haha suckers, here's my alibi."
  
  And, from all accounts, this guy was not stupid - high school valedictorian, high honors in college, tech bro who made or acquired a ghost gun. My guess is the evidence was planted or he wanted to get caught. I mean, it was a ghost gun - he could have melted it down or broke it into pieces, etc. Why would he still have it?
- Seems sus. The guy didn't look like the other photos to me and why would you keep evidence on your person like that? Why not ditch the gun and jacket? Seems like someone taking the fall so the cops and stuff look good.
  
  You asked why as a reply to a comment that suggested he wanted to get caught. That would be the why.
  Perhaps he wants to have his day in court and air out what these evil companies do.
  
  Maybe he had more than one target, thus he still needed the gun.
- Apparently he had some pending YouTube videos being published, but YouTube took down his account.
  Also, he stated to the police that he didn't know where the money came from, suspecting it might have been a plant.

The Golden Arches and their snitches deserve the single finger salute. On the other hand, what would you do if you were making minimum wage with pathetic benefits? $50k would be helpful, unless the clown buys a Dodge Charger.
- Well, you would have to quit your job and go into hiding because the whole country wants to dox you and that 50k (maximum) would only get you so far
  
  Is it 50k tax free? Lol or is is taxed as a bonus?
- Oh you bet whoever did it will spend either on something frivolous or to pay for necessary medical treatment not covered by insurance due to some bullshit reason
- I wouldn't count on that reward money.
  Insurance companies aren't exactly famous for paying what they owe.
- It's worth noting that we don't know exactly why they called the cops. It appears the cops didn't know who he was until they had him pull down his mask. I'm guessing he was quite the sight after several days on the run, and probably several nights without much sleep. Some reporting also stated that they called the police on behest of an alarmed customer.
- lol "snitch" "hey, dont tell anyone that he just murdered someone because we didnt like the guy. laws? naw fuck that eye for an eye"
  
  Considering how many deaths that guy was responsible for in chasing another dollar, it was essentially self-defense, not murder.
  If another country was responsible for that many suffer Americans congress would have likely declared war already.
  
  he would have to be killed thousands of times for it to have been an eye for an eye. this is more like a hair for a head.
  
  We see every day corporate figureheads and politicians skirting the law. If our system turns a blind eye to the rich and powerful, we can turn a blind eye as well. It's how the mafia got away with so much crime. They took care of the neighborhoods they hid in.
  
  laws? naw fuck that
  This but unironically
  Unjust laws aren't to be followed

I can't seem to find any of these reviews on Google maps, what do you all think, removal or bad journalism?
Edit: they're on the Altoona Iowa ones, not the PA ones like the article also mentions.

Looks like the reviews were taken down? Not seeing any on google maps
- Google frequently freezes reviews on places getting review bombed. Same thing happened to the hostel he was at, and even for much smaller places I've seen appear on the local news - that kinda thing
- Corps stick up for corps.
- They take down reviews from review bombs. So. Keep a note and leave a review in a month.

What’s great is that this will piss off corporate and management MUCH more than the average employee.

As it should be. Fuckin narcs.

Did they name the stooley? Who snitched?
- Doxing anyone? Snitches get stitches....
- It was Stacey. She's a fucking snitch.
  
  God dammit, Stacey!

What's the source of that right thumbnail image
- Apparently it was his (now deleted) YouTube profile picture? I found this other article on the same site
  https://www.latintimes.com/youtube-channel-linked-suspected-unitedhealthcare-ceo-shooter-posts-cryptic-countdown-clock-after-568556
  
  Damn, he really liked McDs I guess, a bit unexpected.
  
  “No chance youtube will let the video see the light of day”
  Probably right about that.
- ~~Altoona McDonald’s kitchen~~
  I got my left and right mixed up

How long can they hold him ?
- Patriot Act = indefinite
  
  Not rich person = as long as they want

Here is the address of the McDonalds if anyone wants to leave a review regarding their experience.
407 E Plank Rd Altoona, PA 16602
- I think it's comical that the normal 1 star reviews are getting hundreds of likes lol

Let it be known I don't associate with any of ya'll.
- Just keep your head low and stay out of the way, npc.
  
  You think you can threaten me mr. Wannabe Protagonist? We're gonna see how many lives you have.
- Youz a bitch bootlicker!
  
  You'll see lots of boots up real close if you help some violent extremists overthrow the system you voted to make steaming dogshit in the first place.
