McVeigh indiscriminately murdered hundreds of people, including women and children.

Booth focused on 3 specific targets.

I think the point of the McVeigh article was to indicate how frustration with governmental actions (either by one person or a "ruling" group) can lead to such destructive reactions.

Correct, Laurie. Booth wouldn't think of doing what McVeigh did. Both hated the federal government but expressed it in completely different ways. McVeigh's Sic Semper Tyrannis t-shirt is typical of the way many are displaying their disgust with government today.
