How "odd".

It's funny how, when Joe Stack flies a plane into an IRS building because he hates paying taxes and wants to strike a blow against the government, he's clearly a guy who just snapped.

But when Nidal Malik Hassan shoots up Fort Hood after enduring years of harrassment and intimidation by his fellow soldiers, he is immediately branded a terrorist and no talk of "just snapping" is tolerated by the media.
