Glad no one besides the pilot was killed. When you read a headline like that you imagine much worse damage.

    China has in recent years suffered from a spate of what have been called “revenge against society” attacks – deadly rampages committed by people apparently driven to breaking point by personal grievances. Authorities are reluctant to acknowledge such incidents, and when they do, the perpetrator is often described as an isolated, unstable individual.

    Intriguing. In the US media, many stories are written from a personal perspective, and if there isn't a grievance, there typically is no story. The US First Amendment even uses the word "grievances".

    "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

    ...as opposed to the perfectly sane, level-headed individuals who fly planes into skyscrapers?

    A day ago it didn't happen, now it was just an old man with anxiety and insomnia. Yeah, sure.

    For the sake of truth, those who flew planes into the WTC on September 11 also had mental health problems. You have to be insane to believe that when you kill and die you will go to heaven where 72 virgins will be waiting for you.

    The worst part is if they got the gender and age wrong for the paradise virgins. Turns out its only guys and old men who underwent suicide missions. Both virgins too

    Pretty sure it wasn't the virgins that convinced them, and more like fighting back against an empire that was actively killing their people. Not defending their actions, just trying to curb back the blatant islamaphobia from your comment.

    If NDE research tells us anything, once they’ve died crashing their plane, they likely have to experience the pain and suffering of those they killed, along with the pain and suffering of the loved ones who have to endure the tragedy.

    I'd say he now has quite a few other problems. At least he sorted out the mental problem right quick.
