Furious anti-government, anti-tax guy, Joe Stack, flew his plane into an IRS building in Austin. Killed an office worker. The media jumped on the angry act as something like a ‘Tea Party’ stand:

Alienated in Austin

There’s no information yet on whether he was involved in any anti-government groups or whether he was a lone wolf. But after reading his 34-paragraph screed, I am struck by how his alienation is similar to that we’re hearing from the extreme elements of the Tea Party movement.

More: Media Link Joseph Stack To ‘Tea Party’. I wasn’t buying the Stack/Teabagger connection until idiots started calling the violent ass a hero:

– Joe Stack is a “True American Hero“: Facebook Groups Support Domestic Terrorist
– Folk Hero Push For Andrew Joseph Stack

The latest fan? His daughter:

EXCLUSIVE: Texas Suicide Pilot’s Daughter Calls Dad a Hero, IRS Plane Attack ‘Inappropriate’

The daughter of the man who carried out a suicide plane attack against the IRS in Texas said she considered her father a hero for standing up to “the system” but said the attack that killed a government worker and injured 12 was “inappropriate” and “wrong.”

“His last actions, the suicide, the catastrophe that caused injuries and death, that was wrong,” Samantha Bell, Stack’s daughter from his first marriage, told “Good Morning America” in a morning television exclusive telephone interview that aired today. “But if nobody comes out and speaks up on behalf of injustice, then nothing will ever be accomplished. But I do not agree with his last action with what he did. But I do agree about the government.”

She doesn’t agree with “his last actions”? “The catastrophe”? Is she talking about Dad’s pre-meditated murder of an American veteran, Vernon Hunter?

Meet The Real Victim Of Last Week’s Terror Attack On IRS Building – Vietnam Vet, Vernon Hunter

Last week, Joseph Stack set his house on fire, drove to the airport, jumped in his plane and flew it into an IRS building in Austin, Texas. This deliberate, cowardly act of domestic terrorism resulted in injuring thirteen IRS workers and left one man dead — a veteran of the Vietnam War:

When Ken Hunter first heard about a plane crashing into his father’s office building in Austin, he said he hoped his dad, Vernon Hunter, wasn’t there.

After several attempts to reach his father, a 67-year-old IRS worker, he discovered his dad was missing.

In the hours that followed, Ken said he heard lots of talk about the pilot’s motivations and felt compelled to speak out on his father’s behalf.

“There was just too much going on about what the guy did and what he believed in, and enough’s enough,” he said. “They don’t need to talk about him. Talk about my dad. You know, some people are trying to make this guy out to be a hero, a patriot. My dad served two terms in Vietnam. This guy never served at all. My dad wasn’t responsible for his tax problems.”

Meanwhile, the Teabaggers would kill any attempt at healthcare reform, ever. Or any attempt to use the government to stimulate the economy while unemployment’s at 10% and the Great Recession drags on. Do they offer any solutions to these huge, national problems? No. Do they care that their actions will make things worse for others? No.

They’re angry, narcissistic little jerks. Heroes. Heroes. Heroes. Heroes. Heroes.

Dateline of this article was Tuesday. Read more about the christianist decapitating drug cartel here.

‘La Familia Michoacana’ decapitated yet another victim, this one in the town of Celaya, in Guanajuato, just north of Michoacan. They put his head in a cooler and dumped it in front of the city’s ‘Presidencia Municipal.’ As usual, they left a message with the head, but authorities are not giving it out specific details of the text.

Dead Census worker: Victim of open borders?
Roger Hedgecock
Posted: September 28, 2009

Two weeks ago, Census taker Bill Sparkman died choking, hands and feet bound, hanging naked from a tree in a remote site in Daniel Boone National Forest in Clay County, Ky. Someone had scrawled “fed” on his chest with a felt-tipped pen.

Last week, Sparkman’s death became fodder for more attacks on “right-wing violence.” Bloggers wanted to “send the body to Glenn Beck,” and a Time magazine piece speculated that Sparkman was a victim of the culture of another McCain-voting Southern state

Now it looks more like Sparkman was yet another victim of illegal drug operations on national forest land, and possibly also a victim of our still open border with Mexico.

Taking the Census in our national forests is dangerous business. Law enforcement sources say meth labs and marijuana plantations are “prevalent” in the area of Sparkman’s death. Did he stumble across a drug operation in the Daniel Boone National Forest? No one is saying for sure, but the locals believe it…

Our open border with Mexico has been changing American society in a number of unpleasant ways. These fires, these destroyed national forest lands, and maybe even Bill Sparkman’s death, may just be the latest way.

So now it’s wild-eyed drug pushers. But not the white American ones, the brown Mexican ones. This latest story I don’t find very compelling given that illegal immigrants, even, or especially, the ones running drug operations, are very wary of police and the government. When law enforcement drops by, they run.

And when it’s some harmless guy from the Census Bureau, they don’t abduct, kill and hang him. And then write ‘fed’ on the body. That’s a particularly lurid, public message that doesn’t really serve a foreign drug operation. Perhaps Mexican drug-dealer/manufacturers in Mexico, maybe, but not here.

This murder really looks like an act of rage, and Conservatives just refuse to admit they have had a hand in pouring gasoline on already-present anti-government feelings in that part of Kentucky. I don’t imagine the moonshining days are all that far back. Instead, they’re going to keep coming up with ever-more preposterous scenarios, some that obscenely blame the blameless Sparkman for his own murder because, frankly, these right-wingers are cowards.

If it does turn out to be some paranoid ‘Federal Government Rapes and Kills!’ lunatic, watch them pile on that the killer was actually a hard core liberal. Yes, they are that dumb and shameless.

The faculty and staff of Salt Lake City’s Western Governors University posted this, in his memory. Many thanks to them.

“The shit’s supposed to be on low boil…

[knock knock]

What the FUCK!? Shshshshshshshhhhhhh….

…MOTHERFUCKING RAT-TURD–go get my 30 foot rope! it’s in the toolshed! SKYE–I’ve got 3 rolls of duct tape in the garage–once we’ve knocked him down on the porch, come running out, fast…WORM–you gotta find some sorta black marker…..“

Bill Sparkman was a regular guy. Had a couple children, managed to get them grown up. Worked with the Boy Scouts, worked with kids as a substitute teacher. Also worked for the U.S. Census, probably to help make ends meet. He, unfortunately, also got cancer and fought for his life with regular doses of chemotherapy.

In between sessions of chemo, while working as a census taker near Big Creek, Kentucky, somebody savagely murdered him. Abducted him, gagged him, stripped him naked, bound his hands and feet and hanged his body from a tree. They also marked him, scrawling ‘fed’ across his body and taping his Census Bureau i.d. to his neck.

Immediately, anybody familiar with the hysterical screeching of the right-wing in the wake of the presidency’s changing hands cringed. Conservative paranoia about the census had been boiling for months.

Bachmann’s irrational diatribes about scary stalking Census workers quickly spawned a right-wing movement. During an interview with Bachmann, Fox News’ Glenn Beck said, “Ok, so let me talk about the Census because there’s a lot of people that are concerned with it because they don’t want to fill it out, they’re not comfortable with ACORN members coming to find out all this information, they don’t want to give the government all this kind of information.”

Conservative radio host Neal Boortz told a caller, “Most of the rest of the [Census] information is designed to help the government steal from you in order to pass off your property to the moochers. They’re looters.” Boortz urged his listeners to resist the Census workers. “If somebody comes to my — if a burglar came to your house, are you going to show him where the silverware is?” he asked. “Maybe you will if he pulls out a gun.”

The door-rapping ethnics of ACORN? Stealing? Burglars, guns? That sort of hideous vilification of the census and its workers alone qualifies you as whacko dirtbags. It’s required by the Constitution, jerks.

So now we have to come to grips with this murder, an absolutely shocking event, a nightmare. If it turns out to be the hysterical lashing out of an anti-government/census lunatic, it’d indicate the country has a bigger problem than we’d perhaps like to admit: political hysteria-speech affects ‘regular folks’, to the point of enabling, if not outright stoking, homicide.

And, well, don’t the same mindless Conservatives who run their neon-red-raged mouths know it? What was the response to the silence-of-the-lambs killing of an innocent, mild-mannered census worker? What were they immediately inspired to say? This: ‘You liberals are So Fucking Stupid, HAHA.’

Witness: Census worker’s hanging body naked, bound

BIG CREEK, Ky. – A part-time census worker found hanging in a rural Kentucky cemetery was naked, gagged and had his hands and feet bound with duct tape, said an Ohio man who discovered the body two weeks ago.

The Census Bureau has suspended door-to-door interviews in the rural county pending the investigation…

via C&L.

As more has become known of the murderous trio of Shawna Forde, Jason Bush and Albert Gaxiola, it’s become clear that their conspiracy was part of an orchestrated effort that grew out of Forde’s anti-immigration activities.

Apparently, as she rabble-roused and ranted on about her perception of the dire threat of immigrants assaulting the nation with their rampant drug-smuggling…

In interviews and Web postings, Forde repeatedly maintained that the violence is connected to her role as a leader of Minutemen American Defense. The group she founded conducts desert surveillance and undercover investigations aimed at curbing illegal immigration and drug smuggling at the Mexico border in Arizona, she said….

Her Web site features shaky videos, often focusing on the garbage left in the desert by people sneaking into the country. On one film clip, Forde claims to have found a place in the desert where human smugglers regularly rape women. On another, she suggests border agents have found bodies of drug smugglers whom she claims were duped by terrorists into carrying radioactive materials into the U.S., hidden inside loads of marijuana.

…at some point, she thought it was a good idea to assault the alleged drug dealers and strip them of their cash for her own purposes.

The May 30 killings were believed to be premeditated and part of a plan to steal money and drugs to finance the Minuteman group she leads. Forde’s own family said that the woman weeks ago had discussed using robberies to raise money for her cause.

And since there were so many angry, right-wing whackjobs around her, why not pitch the plan to them? Might not be a hard sell:

The accused ringleader and triggerman in the May 30 double murder in Arivaca are linked to white supremacist groups, police and family members said.

Accused ringleader Shawna Forde told her family in recent months that she had begun recruiting members of the Aryan Nations and that she planned to begin robbing drug-cartel leaders, her brother Merrill Metzger said Monday in a telephone interview from Redding, Calif.

“She was talking about starting a revolution against the United States government,” he said.

The accused shooter, Jason Eugene Bush, was charged Friday in the 1997 murder of a sleeping, homeless Hispanic man in Wenatchee, Wash.

“Bush has had long-standing ties to the Aryan Nations,” Sgt. John Kruse of the Wenatchee police wrote in a statement filed in Chelan County Superior Court.

The Arizona case was not the gang’s first job, apparently:

On Saturday, Arizona detectives were pursuing tips that members of Forde’s group may have staged a home invasion robbery in Shasta Lake, Calif., on Monday.

The victims, friends of Forde’s mother, reported being robbed at gunpoint of nearly $12,000 by two men who showed up at the door and presented badges claiming they were U.S. Marshals.

Truck driver Peter Myers, 48, said he recognized one of men who robbed him after he saw news reports about Forde’s arrest and photographs of her co-defendants.

He said the man who directed the robbery in his home was Jason

Brisenia Flores

Eugene Bush, 34. The ex-convict from Eastern Washington is a Forde associate now accused of being the gunman in the Arivaca killings.

“That is the guy. He pointed a gun right at us,” Myers said.

Now, I have no idea if Myers is Hispanic, but we certainly know the unfortunate Flores family were. And upon hearing the horrific 911 tape, gunshots and all, you understand how Forde’s ruthless gang were operating under a false color of authority to bully and terrify their victims–brandishing weapons, wearing fatigues and face paint, and telling the victims it was all some sort of emergency ‘fugitive’ operation:

‘…they told us that somebody was, um, had escaped jail or something..’

‘…that the whole property was surrounded with Border Patrol and everything..’

When the husband questioned their motives, they walked in and shot him and his 10 year-old daughter to death.

I find it pretty surprising that it’s necessary to write this post. But the right-wing has been screaming that this lunatic is a leftist. No, I’m not kidding:

Latest Right-Wing Meme: Von Brunn’s A Lefty
By Zachary Roth – June 11, 2009, 4:19PM

…Let’s count off the examples:

Yesterday, a guest from the “Ayn Rand Institute” argued to Fox News’s Glenn Beck that because Von Brunn is a racist, he must of course be “a phenomenon of the left.” In response, Beck accepted that logic, and wondered: “How did it happen that you look at people that are Nazis and you say that those are right wing? It doesn’t make any sense whatsoever!”

Yes, it’s totally baffling.

Not to be outdone, Rush Limbaugh too declared Von Brunn “has more in common with the marchers and protesters we see at left-wing rallies,” according to video just aired on MSNBC.

But it’s conservative bloggers that have really taken this idea and run with it, though. Yesterday, Eric Erickson of Red State tweeted:

holocaust shooter, like left wing bloggers hates Bush, Israel, the war, Christains, capitalism. the list goes on and on.

On his site, Erickson wrote:

It is the leftists like Kos’s acolytes that perpetuate anti-Semitism under the guise of “if only we wouldn’t defend Israel this wouldn’t happen.” Nazism, like Communism, and the neo-nazis disease that stems from the former, share the common foundation of socialism that these same leftists now agitate for….

Kos and the lunatic gunman today and the lunatic gunman who killed Pvt. Long share more in common that the rest of us — their world view is centered on contempt for what this nation stands for and are consumed with an abiding hatred of George W. Bush and the “neocons.”

It goes on, pathetically.

This attack will be short-lived because it’s certifiably insane. First, shall we remind ourselves of the ‘keep an eye out for right-wing extremism’ DHS report that made wingnuts go completely batshit?

That would be Fox News itself that agreed the shooter was accurately profiled by the report. And what did Fox really think about the domestic terrorist Von Brunn?

Website TVNEWSER tracks the news:
Which Murder Is More Newsworthy? Bill O’Reilly Debates:

…As for FNC’s decision about how to report the Holocaust Museum shooting in prime time, it was mentioned for 55 seconds by O’Reilly, not at all by Sean Hannity and for 45 seconds by Greta Van Susteren.

If Fox really believed the terrorist Von Brunn was a liberal, do you think they’d ignore it? You think maybe, instead, they’re trying to duck the incident? Mmm, gee, it’s possible.

Lastly: Was von Brunn a Daily Kos Diarist? « Colorado Right

Yes, someone wants to know about the ‘liberal’ terrorist’s DKos bona fides…

–MyDD :: James Von Brunn: Freeper.
–Truth Feeds : FreeRepublic pulls thread from December praising James Von Brunn
–James Von Brunn on Freeper – a set on Flickr

There. Oh, and post-lastly–Von Brunn friend: It’s what happens ‘when white people are provoked’:

…“I think the election of Barack Obama became a tremendous signal of alarm for him,” De Nugent added.

Well, that would not be a liberal. Ok, right-wingers, you can STFU now.

Scott Roeder is a HERO for killing Dr. Tiller “The Baby Killer”!

If someone broke into your house you could kill them to protect your babies and it would be “justified” by the “law”.

Yet we have “laws” that protect murderers allowing them to kill babies.

It’s obvious that people need to break the law to kill these murderers.

60,000 babies VS 1 killer is JUSTIFIED!

As Tiller roasts in HELL with Satan, watch this video: watch?v=XghfFjVY_KU

Then ask WHY Obama supports Abortion?k

webxsuccess (2 days ago)

Scott Roeder is my HERO for killing Dr. Tiller the “Baby Killer”!

If you had to kill someone who was trying to kill your child the “law” would say you were justified.

But they enact “law” to protect “doctors” like Tiller who murdered over 60,000 babies.

As long as the “law” continues to protect murderers like Tiller then people need to break the law and commit murder to stop this genocide.

While Tiller burns in HELL, watch this video, the TRUTH on Abortion: watch?v=zDtUqImGjeg

Ugh. She doesn’t do or say anything that doesn’t make you wanna put your head in your hands. I find this woman to be absolutely detestable.

This was Palin’s inspiration, a horrible, awful story: Private William Long, a 23 year-old recruiter, was shot and killed by a Muslim convert in Little Rock.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark., June 2 (UPI) — A man who pleaded not guilty Tuesday to killing a U.S. Army recruiter said he was angry about the killing of Muslims, Arkansas investigators said.

Police Chief Stuart Thomas told the Times that Muhammad, who had changed his name from Carlos Bledsoe, told police he became a Muslim as a teenager. In a telephone interview, he said Muhammad cited anger over U.S. killing of Muslims in Iraq and Afghanistan as his reason for the shooting.

So what does Palin do? Sees it as a terrific opportunity to score points with The Base, naturally. And has there ever been anybody more desperate to become President?

Governor Palin Statement on William Long

“The stories of two very different lives with similar fates crossed through the media’s hands yesterday – both equally important but one lacked the proper attention. The death of 67-year old George Tiller was unacceptable, but equally disgusting was another death that police believe was politically and religiously motivated as well.

William Long died yesterday. The 23-year old Army Recruiter was gunned down by a fanatic; another fellow soldier was wounded in the ambush. The soldiers had just completed their basic training and were talking to potential recruits, just as my son, Track, once did.

Whatever titles we give these murderers, both deserve our attention. Violence like that is no way to solve a political dispute nor a religious one. And the fanatics on all sides do great disservice when they confuse dissention with rage and death.”

Governor Sarah Palin

Yeah, ‘unacceptable.’ And ‘…confuse dissention with rage and death’. Great, genius.

‘Dissention’: Time to broadcast my ‘rage’. No, wait, time to broadcast my ‘death’. She’s right, that’s confusing.
