  But I know when I first heard of the speculation it was from a relative-by-marriage calling the radio station connecting dots between the housefire and the pilot.  They did state that it wasn't official etc. and it was the first they had heard of a connection, although now it does seem to be the case.  It is an interesting issue when things are so fluid.

   

  But I think that's what bothers me most. They say it's speculation and then report it anyway. I don't think that's fair. I don't think it's helpful. I think all it does is spark rumors and in some cases incite fear and panic.
  

  Why can't the media wait until they can confirm the information before reporting it?

  ETA: And I don't meant to be all growly at you, I'm just pissed off at the whole situation. I'm going to go look at pictures of cute fuzzy animals now...

  KLBJ just said that TSA is suspecting it was an "act of intentional violence". I really hope they are just saying that to cover all possible angles and that it is NOT true.

  The pilot is apparently linked to a domestic dispute this morning in which he apparently started his house on fire, drove to the RR Airport and flew over there and intentionally hit the building. This is speculation from Fox 7 though nothing has been confirmed.
  

  Wonder if this is his house.

  That's what they are saying on the news.  They just gave the same address.

  I saw the smoke from that house fire this morning on my way to work!  I was really confused when people started talking about a plane crash in the opposite direction, but now it makes sense.

  A kid in my office says a friend of his was driving on 183 this morning, and saw the plane turn into the building to crash.  (i.e., the plane did not seem out of control)  Of course there are a ton of rumors right now, but people in my office have some news source that's saying an IRS office was targeted.

  good effing grief! My parents used to work for the IRS. So did I! How scary and ridiculous. The employees have nothing to do with laws and such. Idiot man.
