“The daughter of a man who crashed his small plane into an Internal Revenue Service building called her father a hero”

Does she have a pilot’s license?

Hated Bush, Catholics, organized religion, and capitalism. Quoted Marx and supported the failed healthcare reform. Some “conservative”.

“Inappropriate” is a picking your nose in church, or wearing white shoes after Labor Day

attempted mass murder is beyond “inappropriate”

she said: "Yes. Because now maybe people will listen."

No, no one will listen, his point is completely lost on both parties, and all the idiots in between.

The IRS ruling he was supposedly protesting needs to be abolished, and brokered employment needs to be outlawed.

Yet another media-driven attempt to smear small government conservatism. The MSM finds the clueless, grieving daughter, who probably is young and ignorant, and gets her to play into their storyline that this guy was some small government conservative nut and that he is viewed as a hero by conservatives. The story is agenda driven and sickening. The media should show more discretion in interviewing the daughter—she is grieving and her inflammatory comments only hurt the families of those killed. It doesn't surprise met that the media's agenda overrides common decency.

"But if nobody comes out and speaks up on behalf of injustice, then nothing will ever be accomplished," she told ABC. "But I do not agree with his last action with what he did. But I do agree about the government"

I wish these people who hate America would go somewhere else, somewhere not protected by America. Like Somalia. Uganda. Zimbabwe. Iran.

See what the world is like without the big bad USA messing things up.

To me the most interesting aspect of this story is that even die hard liberals are inherently conservative when it comes to their own affairs. They believe the things they believe because they have been told, they have read or have been force fed through emotional trickery. But when they think independently and in tangible terms like their own finances, suddenly they turn conservative. It proves that conservative is the natural order of things. Liberalism is an aberration.

This stupid daughter is probably a “musician” also. Does anyone knows what this guy’s problem was with the IRS? he probably didn’t pay his taxes since he was a “musician” and sel employed.

If you write a letter to the IRS, no one cares. If they notice at all, they may think you are a nut.
If you hold a protest sign about the IRS, no one cares. If they notice at all, they may think you are a nut.
If you file a lawsuit against the IRS, no one cares. If they notice at all, they may think you are a nut.
If you crash your plane into the IRS, no one cares. If they notice at all, they will say you are a nut.

The ability of the government to squeeze revenue from citizens and to ruin lives is staggering. But no one cares. Well, the ones who do care, are just Nuts, so you can just ignore them.

At some point, the nuts will band together and water the tree of Liberty. Then they won't be nuts. Then they will ne heroes and patriots.

According to Cincy conservative talk-show host Mike McConnell, Stack regarded paying income taxes as optional. There’s a dentist in my hometown of La Crosse, Wisconsin (also an HS ex-classmate) who has been thrown in prison several times for refusing to pay his income taxes. He quoted passages from the Income Tax Act or whatever it’s called, in court supposedly “proving” that people like him, dentists and other self-employed people, didn’t have to pay income taxes. He was found guilty and thrown in prison anyway. The term “optional” means the government doesn’t look at your gross income and tell you what to pay, you make out your own taxes. But paying the taxes you owe is definitely not optional!

First, the only ones who seem to understand this case at all are meadsjn, Dead Corpse, and ClearCase_guy, who gets it exactly right. As for the rest, especially:

[caver] “Oh, so his IRS problems were of his own making.” Nobody’s IRS problems are of their own making. You idiots would accuse the woman killed by her rapist as, “a problem of her own making” because she resisted.

[trisham] “His actions resulted in the death of a human being. It’s sad that she and her father do not understand how very wrong this is. Imho, there is something emotionally/mentally unhealthy there.” You mean like Thomas Jefferson:

“And what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to the facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.”

Here’s my answer to every misrepresentation being promoted about this tragic suicide:

"I think too many people lay around and wait for things to happen. But if nobody comes out and speaks up on behalf of injustice, then nothing will ever be accomplished," Samantha Bell, Joseph Stack's daughter from his first marriage, told "Good Morning America" in a phone interview that aired Monday morning.

"I have many cases of people I know that are suffering in the hands of the government and people literally dying because they are not getting the help they need," she said.

The 38-year-old mother of three stopped short, however, of endorsing her father's last actions. The suicide plane attack was "inappropriate" and "wrong."

Bell lives in Norway, "Good Morning America" reported, because she lost her job while pregnant, and Medicaid "would not take care of her."

She moved to Norway because she was pining for the fjords and its socialist welfare society.

Bell, who lives in Norway and criticized the American system as "very faulty," said that she hopes "everything" will change in light of her father's attack.
