This WaPo image isn't all that striking until you read the official caption:
But he didn't take any tax authorities with him. Not very well thought-out.

Flaming idiot.:(

And I bet it HURT !!!!

burnin to death has got to be one of the most painful deaths

THE Most. Goes faster if you inhale the flames, crisping the lungs. Not well thought through.:yeldead:

What an asshole. He had six kids to take care of--JERK.

honestly if you wanna make your point by killing yourself you need to rethink your strategy

I've read in several places that burning do death isn't actually all that painful, since in a nasty fire your nerves are going to be one of the first things to go. Take that with as many grains of salt as you wish.

it looks like the pressure in the car has nearly blown out the back door. it seems slightly ajar up the top.

oh and im sure he ruined his best jacket

Wouldn't be so bad, except he ate Taco Bell just an hour before.

of all the ways to go, if you ahve petorl and a car surely exhaust fules would be better, but I'm presuming he wanted to make a point.

but who took the picture??

I wonder if we could get a link to the news site that posted this. I mean, it *looks* real, but I cannot help but be a bit suspicious of it. I have found evidence of the event, but I'm unable to track the photo down. I won't call go so far as to call shenanigans, but it echo's of photoshop.

If anyone can find a link, please post it.

here's a link

looks legit. He was alive afterwards -- they pulled him out and doused him, but he later succumbed to his wounds.

If he'd lived they would have prosecuted him.

That picture came from the Washington Post photo section for April 28th. :cool:
