Why in the world are we using terrorist attacks to fuel our political agendas? "Oh no, Joseph Stack, the epitome of right-wing terror!"
Really?
I have not read this psycho's suicide manifesto, and I don't intend to. But I know enough to know that he had rants against both political sides, and I know that it doesn't matter.
Why would we use the words of a psychotic murdering terrorist to fuel political attacks on the other side whatever that might be? To me, that is like saying, "Well it's a horrible thing, those World Trade Center towers coming down, but what a wake up call! Bin Laden's tactics were extreme, but boy do I see his point!"
No. They are murderers. No matter how much I dislike someone, I don't plan and execute their deaths. No matter how strongly I feel about my political convictions, I don't resort to violence. As the addage goes: "Violence is not the answer." And neither is excusing it.
