looney or patriot. what think you?
missed this story first time around. odd. the phrase 'suicide bomber' was never used in the coverage. i guess texans don't apply it to white folks.
trysail, zeb, ami, TE999, i know you'd NEVER undertake violence, but come on, shouldn't we try to understand joe's message? how obamacare pushed him over the brink? (i admit the headline is a wee bit biased in usual leftish media fashion.]

Man Angry at IRS Crashes Plane into Office

A software engineer furious with the U.S. tax agency plowed his small plane into an office building housing nearly 200 federal tax employees on Thursday, officials said, setting off a raging fire that sent workers fleeing as thick plumes of black smoke poured into the air.
Emergency crews have found two bodies in the wreckage. At least 13 people were injured, two critically.
Austin Fire Department Battalion Chief Palmer Buck said late Thursday that authorities "have now accounted for everybody," but declined to discuss the identities of those found.
Authorities said earlier that the pilot who crashed into the building was presumed dead and that one worker in the building had been missing.
A U.S. law official identified the pilot as Joseph Stack - whose home was set on fire just before the crash - and said investigators were looking at an anti-government message on the Web linked to him. The Web site outlines problems with the Internal Revenue Service and says violence "is the only answer."

Stack apparently left a note, and it's on the 'net, endorsed as credibly his, by several sources:
