I don't think what this person did was in any way a good thing. I don't think he's a hero, but I don't think he's a coward either. I think he was sick, yes SICK, and this is just one more example of how the U. S. is NOT taking care of its own. Of course it was his responsibility to seek out help, and who knows if he did or not, but none-the-less, no one in their right mind does chit like this, and I have NO doubt that the pressure on him was more than he could handle, for whatever reasons. We're all different.

Unless any of us has been so depressed, fed up, and out of control that we've actually crossed that line between fantasy and reality we have NO idea what really went on for this guy. Causing harm to our self or anyone else is never a good thing to do, but it does happen, and it sometimes happens to what appears to be "perfectly normal people". It could happen to any one of us during our lifetime.

I personally find all of these judgments disheartening. It's a VERY, VERY SAD and traumatic situation for a whole lot of people, including the guy who torched his own house and flew his airplane into that building, and all of his family.
