No doubt this fellow had a screw loose but that being said it is a wonder this type of thing doesn't happen more often.

And no doubt some stupid new rules lay in store for GA in an effort to make everyone feel safe.

I wonder if Stack was obsessed with the movie Falling Down?

If this country had more die-hards like Mr. Stack, perhaps we could see some modest reform.

"Joe Stack", clearly a Middle Easterner. Yep, racial profiling would have nailed this guy!

Do you mean the suicide note titled; "Well Mr. Big Brother IRS Man....take my pound of flesh and sleep well"?
Yeah, you advocating that note Well Mr. Big Brother IRS Man....take my pound of flesh and sleep well makes it better.

It is sad that he felt this was the only way out. I also empathized with his note. While I have had no problem with the IRS, I have heard some real horror stories. Sometimes the pressure becomes so great that people snap and strike out. This isn't the first time that someone stuck out at the govt.

I am worried like others that the TSA is going to overreact and impose some kind of restrictions on GA flying.
