One Less Idiot in the World.

[nissangirl74]

Joseph Stack, a software engineer furious with the Internal Revenue Service 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.

Good grief! Has everyone lost their freaking mind?

Awesome, I was starting to give up on Darwin but it is too bad he injured people before he left.

that is crazy!

A guy that lived a few blocks away from me killed himself and his family coz he lost his job and couldn't pay the mortgage.

[ThatGuyRoger]

I have no sympathy for a man who owns his own plane and is upset with the IRS to this extent.

[breadbox]

[lino]

it was one of these



which, tbh, really aren't all taht expensive iirc. something in the 30-40k range.

[s0m3th1ngAZ]

Yeah but the operating costs are HUGE. If you were that pissed at the IRS put your hobby on the back burner and settle your debts you fricking n00b.

[numbnuts240]

everyone wants to have their cake and eat it too. we're in the s***ter now because no one seems to remember how to put their priorities in order and act responsibly.

Tito for Presidentz.

[nissangirl74]

I'd vote for him!

[numbnuts240]

you really don't want that. besides, i couldn't be a president. no way am i going to be the "leader" of a country and still have to ask for permission for everything that i want to do.

God, I hope not!

[numbnuts240]

hai, my name is tita, and i'd like to lead you into a brighter future

[dusred]

Anyone who has had to deal with the IRS knows how he feels. IRS are ***holes, but running your plane into their building? Gosh. . .

[MellowZ32]

I wouldn't let him close to my kids!

[BusyBadger]

I'm waiting on a new bill from Congress banning private aircraft.

And BTW, my dad owns a quarter share of a 197x Grummin Traveler (not sure of the spelling) for like $7,000, so it's not like you have to be a millionaire to fly a plane.

That's true. However, if you owe taxes, that $7,000 should not be spent on a plane. Responsibilities come first. Not the toys.

^ THIS.

So, this a$$ is pissed at a government agency, so he takes it out on innocent, working-class people?

I hope he burned to death slowly in the crash. No sympathy.

He screwed his family, the employees and their families, the insurance company that covers that building, the one that covers his plane, the local community and the emergency services providers who had to be called away to deal with his idiocy.

Selfish P.O.S.

[Rev_D21]

Small gov't conservatives who feel sympathy for the IRS...oh the irony!

[IanS]

He would be from Texas, wouldnt he.

You misread me.

I have no sympathy for a government entity, nor the idiot pilot.

I outlined clearly who my sympathies lie with.
