According to the Federal govt 70% of Americans are Terrorist simply because they dont agree with the govt.

Many things made this man angry. But if you read that one line in his manifesto, it's hard to ignore the realization that...there may be more of these guys out there. How many other people are beat down by the IRS and health care bills. How many more people out there are at their limit? People don't have jobs or health care, they pay taxes so senators can get fat on the wealth of the people. They vote themselves bread and wine and extra money for jam. But they let us rott in the streets.

The creator of this video is an idiotic shill for human slavery. He knows nothing of the history of jury rights, or limitations on government. He favors a system of unlimited government power: totalitarianism. It is extreme irony that the left fashions itself as fans of George Orwell, when morons like this are bleating for as fast a submission to Big Brother as is humanly possible.

As luck would have it, the Travis County Haz Mat team was meeting across the highway from the IRS building that was crashed into. They brought a new fire engine with them that day. Reminds me of the FEMA training drill in NYC on Sept. 10, 2001

Yep, so basically all Muslims are now stereotyped as terrorists but the Whites that do the same actions are just nut cases. That's so much bullshit that you don't even want to look for the bulldozer to push it away.

Was Stack a terrorist?? Of course he was. Is terrorism an effective way to make people wake up and take notice?? Gee Gil, it always has been in the past, and that seems to be the main point of terrorism. Now, are terrorist acts the best way to go about obtaining ones goals?? Hmmm, it seems that the terrorist attacks of 9/11, have sent our country into a tailspin of economic collapse, loss of commonly held freedoms, and a general feeling of despair. So yes, terrorism is a very effective tool.

@l3iohazzard I agree that terrorism is more of a false term than a real thing, it's Communism 2.0, a better, badder, more dehumanizable enemy, making it even easier to throw all the rules out the window.

But I can't go along with the "freedom fighter" statement. There was no way these actions could ever conceivably create more freedom for anybody.

@LokiDWolf difference is, he was a muslim. And you could say he was a "wannabe" terrorist if you believe the stories about how he tried to contact al Qaeda. But he definitely acted as a lone nutcase, which is the criteria they've been using for saying Joe Stack was NOT a terrorist. Therefore, the only difference, one's a Muslim and one's a white dude.

[LokiDWolf]

If he's not considered a terrorist then neither should that solider that went berserk a few months ago in Texas and shot all the soldiers. He was called a terrorist and yet he didn't instill fear, panic or terror. They (authorities) knew who it was and went after him. Funny how definitions change over and over and over again to suit ones outlook. People have become pretty pathetic.

Who did this guy work for?

Who did he piss off?

Who typed his suicide note?

Who co-owned the hangar that he parked his plane in? ... I have the answer to this one - a member of the National Security Agency.

Stack's job was developing "auto pilot" systems for airplanes.

Not a freedom fighter - an INSIDE JOB!
