It is being widely reported that 53-year-old Joseph A. Stack III deliberately crashed a small plane Thursday morning into a seven-story office building in Austin, TX which houses part of the Internal Revenue Service. Stack - the pilot of the single engine, fixed wing plane - was killed, two people hospitalized, and one person still unaccounted for as of Thursday afternoon.

While details are still trickling in, it does appear Stack left behind an online statement entitled "Well Mr. IRS Big Brother Man....take my pound of flesh and sleep well" detailing his decision. We highly suggest you read Stack's final words for yourself so you can draw your own conclusions from this act before the mainstream media does it for you.

The original statement was posted here on Stack's own website until the FBI took it down for reasons only clear to them.
