Was Joe Stack crazy, a terrorist or was he a true hero striking back at a system which is little more than a form of slavery and tyranny? I’m sure the people of Iraq and Afghanistan will cheer this blue-eyed blonde-haired man because they know the sharp end of the same fascist system that oppressed him. Judging from his manifesto Joe Stark was an articulate, sane man of conviction who sought more truth in his death than he found in life.

I think its only a matter of time before incidents like this become a regular occurrence. There is only so much people can take. The American government are a tyrannical, imperialist, totalitarian establishment. What are people supposed to do... sign petitions??? Wave signs around outside the white house???
The wise people who wrote into the US constitution the second amendment of the right to keep and bear arms.Precisely for the reasons when the Govt and its minions become exactly as Joe Stack described,that the people would have the right tools be it a musket then or an AR15 rifle now to keep their govt in check and overthrow it if need to be.
Ever wonderd why after the US Govt drove a tank thru a church in Waco and burnt alive 60 men women and children,and after oklahoma,that the US govt suddenly pulled in its horns abit about going after mitilas and other groups??Maybe it decided US domestic terrorism wasnt such a good idea in a country of 600 million guns???And in the hands of 300 million people who might get a bit pissed off if you continue pushing them??
