Son Speaks Out {UpDated w/Video and 2nd and 3rd UpDate}

(8PM EST – promoted by Nightprowlkitty)

Added: There have been a couple of mentions in the replies, in the KOS diary, about naming a building in Honor to Vernon, my thoughts are with those thinking and voicing that! Wherever they reopen the IRS building in Austin that’s what should happen, and instead of in a leased space the Government should build that building!! So any possible Government folks or media types who just happen to click on this diary, How About It!!

Second thought on a building. The WWII, Korean and especially the brother ‘Nam Vets have been asking for a VA Hospital, not clinic, in the Rio Grande Valley for decades, that call has been refreshed by the OEF and OIF Veterans recently, not to slight the IRS workers but I think this would be a Perfect Honor for our Fallen Brother!

This is going to be short, but I need to say a few things about recent tragic event as we find out about a lost brother!

Son of missing IRS employee speaks out after plane crash

Vernon Hunter, a 67-year-old IRS worker, was killed in the crash.

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.

“I saw the building and that was my dad’s office building. So I called maybe eight times or more,” Ken said.

But his dad never picked up the phone. A few hours later, he learned his dad was missing.

Snip

“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.”  

Snip

Foster said Vernon Hunter was a proud Vietnam Vet and a great neighbor.

“He was just a real tender man,” he said. “It was always good to talk to him. He was just a nice guy.”

Now, as cars gather in front of the Hunter residence, a neighborhood braces itself and offers support.

Vernon Hunter leaves behind a wife, a son and daughter and six grandchildren. >>>>>

UpDate Thanks to Ripeness Is All who placed a link to a video able to embed.

I have been in a rage since this happened!

I’ve seen so many people commenting on this scum pilot these last couple of days, Domestic Criminal Terrorist, on how he shouldn’t have done what he did But he had a righteous, populist rage against the Government for his tax troubles They were causing him!

This Terrorist flew a quarter million dollar plane, he owned, into a building intent of killing as many people as possible! It was a well planned attack, right down to a many page written suicide note of his rants against The Man!

It’s been reported he had his business license stripped in California twice for evading taxes, one of those times, I heard, had something to do with a partner and religious ideology as tax exempt. My guess is if he ever had any employee’s he was screwing them like he kept trying to screw the government, Us!!

He gets absolutely no sympathy from this Veteran and now we find out the one that died was a brother ‘Nam Vet who did not one but two tours In-Country!

Those trying to justify what that ‘domestic criminal terrorist’ did and especially those who have been glorifying him are just as guilty as he is, only difference is they didn’t pull the trigger of a destructive terror event!!!!!

RIP Brother Vernon, ‘Nam Vet, RIP!! Thoughts and Prayers are with you and for your family and many friends, You Sir Will Be Missed!!

2nd UpDate Thanks to Just Bob of which I found at first opening on waking up, and Thanks for keeping this up this long, more folks will see.

Fund for the family

I was wondering the same thing.

KVUE.com

   In lieu of flowers, the family has requested donations be made to a scholarship/trust fund for Vernon Hunter’s grandchildren, to be established at the Austin Telco Federal Credit Union, under the direction of Mrs. Pamela Williams-Cotton.  This process will not be complete until after burial services.  Thank you.

I put the credit union link in the body, if donating you might want to contact first.

You might also ask about any similar for the Wife and step Daughter of the pilot, they will need the Communities help as well, they are just as much victims of this twisted mind as are all who were in that building!

Should have added this last night! Thanks to lirtydies in the replies, if you’re in Austin TX Crash will take a psychological toll

3rd UpDate

This from this mornings, 02.22.10, Austin American-Statesman online newspaper. While it’s more about the immediate road near the building it also delves into the ongoing investigation especially with this:

Stack also lashed out at his Austin accountant, Bill Ross, in the anti-IRS screed.

“Mr. Stack contacted my firm to help with his personal taxes in 2008. He failed to provide me with all his income and other information resulting in an IRS audit,” Ross said in a statement. Ross has not returned calls placed to his home and office.

“Unfortunately, Mr. Stack ignored the audit and my advice which only complicated his situation, at which time our firm disengaged our services with Mr. Stack whom we have not been in contact with since October 2009,” the statement said. >>>>>
