Well it will get you to one place. 6 feet under in a pine box.
I can't believe what I am reading on ATS lately. People are praising Joe Stack as some sort of patriot hero.
Joe Stack is not a hero. He did no favors for those of us that truely want to stop the ever increasing intrusion into our lives by the tyrannical
federal government. Now all of us will be painted with the same brush as this guy. We are all now just like Joe Stack.
The media blitz demonizing the patriot movement an America has already started. They wasted no time.
Here is what I read in the NY Daily News this morning. The day after this happened.
Anti-government lunatic fringe heaps praise on IRS kamikazi
Disgust, disbelief as crazies laud IRS kamikazi

THE FIRES in Austin were still burning yesterday when the Internet lit up with government haters cheering suicide pilot Joe Stack and calling him
a hero.
"Finally an American man took a stand against our tyrannical government that no longer follows the Constitution," wrote Emily Walters of Louisville,
Ky.
"His sacrifice was for all of us," wrote Texan Tyler Britten.
Crackpots were also praising the dead pilot on Twitter.
"Joe Stack, you are a true American Hero and we need more of you to make a stand," tweeted Greg Lenihan, an engineer in San Diego.
There are always members of a small lunatic fringe ready to embrace a domestic terrorist targeting the feds.
This was a cowardly act of domestic terrorism," he said, and Stack's rant "reflects the steadily increasing flow of 'the government is out to get
me' paranoia."
On the other end of the crazy scale, Internet conspiracy theorists - including Austin radio host Alex Jones - were quick yesterday to declare that the
plane crash was staged by the government "to demonize the tea party movement."
Notice the language used in the article: "crazies", "crackpots", "lunatic fringe". This is how people will now be labeled if you disagree with
the government.
You can't go up against the most powerful people on the planet with violence and expect to win. They are experts in this field. Violence only plays
right into their hands. Any violent uprising against the government would be quickly crushed and the majority of the people will support the
government stance.
The great Mohandas Gandhi pioneered the idea of resistance to tyranny through mass civil disobedience. He knew that India had no chance going up
against the mighty British Army with force. Passive resistance, let the violence come from the other side. That is how to get the public on your side.
Flying planes into buildings just angers the population and people want no part of that.
How do we resist?
Refuse to comply with unconstitional laws passed by the tyrannical federal government. What can they do when millions of people refuse? They can't
lock us all up.
Organize protests on Washington. Camp out in front of the White House and refuse to leave until illegal laws are repealed. Stand your ground when the
police start cracking heads when trying to clear the crowd. Some people will get hurt and even arrested. That is the sacrifice people need to be
willing to make. When images of the authorities beating up fellow citizens and our children show up on the evening news the public opinion will turn
against the government. That is how to get the public on your side. It worked in the 60's during the anti-war movement and it can work today.
Rember, violence is not the way. Peaceful resistance is the answer.
In 1969 when a half a million anti-war protesters showed up in front of the White House, President Nixon realized there was nothing stopping the
protesters from storming the White House if they wanted to. It made him rethink the whole Vietnam war. Fast foward a few years to Kent State where
troops fired on and killed 4 students during an anti-war protest. That was the end for Nixon. He was forced to withdraw from Vietnam after the outrage
of the govenment killing our children.
Peace to all my fellow ATS'rs and God Bless America.
