A crazy thing happened on the way to work today

So, I'm heading into work this morning about 10 am and I see smoke billowing up into the air about 2 miles ahead of me.

When I get to the site I see an office building with a pretty big hole in it, a fair amount of fire, and people streaming out into the street.

It looked like a bomb had gone off!

Everyone was pulling over to the side of the highway, gawking and taking pics.

Turns out some guy who was pissed at the IRS flew his small plane straight into the building, which houses some IRS offices.

Let the conspiracy theories begin!

Oh heck yeah, we heard about it around 9am Pacific time. I have heard of people try different ways to not pay their taxes but THIS is something much different! :?

Small "fun airplane".. depressed.. homecidal..

I'm guessing on a '50s or 60s born babyboomer, that made his fortune with some tricks..
Lost just about everything to the IRS, because he tried to get around them..

Yep, he'd be pretty pissed..
I'd consider throwing some papers from their desks, but this is a bit extreme..
