6. Pointedly stated that his dad served in the military
because he believed in the US, even though he was a 2nd class citizen because of Jim Crow laws, yet what did Joe Stack, who was never treated like that, ever do?

9. He covered every important issue
and didn't forget to ask the daughter the basis for calling her father a hero after he killed his father.
Bet she's paying some real taxes in Norway.

10. I love it that she's in Norway and complaining about taxes in the U.S.
She must really "hate" it there...bet she's enjoying her socialized medicine...

12. Yep, the point is that she's there, paying those taxes instead of here
driving off cliffs or whatever to protest taxes. This is just too funny...if it were'nt SICK...

15. I heard on the radio this morning
that she went to Norway to have her baby because it was too expensive to have it here in the states.

I don't know if there is any validity to that, it was a topic on the local talk AM this morning.

16. Sounds a little strange but I do know an American woman who had her baby in Finland.
But her husband was Finnish so she got the full benefits.

She said she LOVED their health care. She got FIVE days in the hospital to make sure her nursing was going well. After discharge from the hospital she had house visits from her midwife to make sure everything was OK. She said the Finns love their health care and wouldn't dream of parting with it for ANYTHING!

14. GOOD!
This needs to get out there! Anyone who thinks Stack is some sort of hero is seriously DELUDED!

Good on you Mr. Hunter, may peace be with you and your family... :hugs:

18. Thanks for the details. I HATE OP's like this!
No info! No details! Not even what darn channel the man is speaking on! :mad:

From what I've read from Mr. Hunter's son re: his father, I'm surprised he has not actually come out with profanities against Stack or his daughter. "Hero" my round, brown @ss.

20. Totally NOT what I was expecting...
I would've been on the desk screaming at that bitch in Norway!

The son is amazingly strong, I hope he continues to speak out.

28. I was tearing up just watching it. I don't know how he was able to speak.
I'd probably have said something like this to Stack's daughter

21. Thank you SO MUCH for that link. My heart goes out to that man
and to his father.

"You don't make changes in this country by becoming a terrorist."

Amen, Mr. Hunter.

25. If you watched it, he wasn't being used at all
he was using the media to tell his, and his father's story, and to call out the daughter of a terrorist for her idiocy.

27. I saw that -- that was EXCELLENT.
Mr. Hunter did quite well.

I am flabbergasted that Stack's daughter would say that, but then, human stupidity is infinite....said Big Al Einstein.
