[quote=Allan from Fallbrook]Wow. Have we turned into a nation of hysterical little bitches, or what? So, one dude flying a single engined plane into the IRS building in Austin, TX now presages a wave of kamikaze attacks across America?
Please. America needs to take a deep breath, untwist our little knickers and grow up. This kind of pathetic whelping is exactly why we have this childish dependence on Big Government to protect us from all the evils of the big, bad world.
Read a little US history and realize that this kind of thing is nothing new and has been going on since the birth of the republic (Shays’ Rebellion anyone?).[/quote]
Agreed…
I’ll preface my comments by saying that I could turn out to be completely wrong about Sr. Stack, but… I’m going to speculate that his “I-have-zero-blame-for-how-my-life-went-wrong-and-the-IRS-and-corrupt-elite-made-me-do-it” argument isn’t going to hold up well under closer scrutiny as we move forward. Again, I could be wrong – and I’ll admit it if it turns out that this guy was obviously screwed by Uncle Sam (and everyone else) – but for the moment my money’s on the revelation that he’s a bitter screwball who always felt victimized and used the current crisis as an opportunity to go postal while appearing to be a patriot. I seriously doubt he’ll be covered in glory (or sympathy) once all the facts come out. But, again, I could be wrong.
