Randall and Vicki Weaver and their children wanted nothing more than to be left to live an isolated life in peace in their cabin enclave on a northern Idaho mountaintop called Ruby Ridge. Untrusting of the federal government and of the belief society had taken an insurmountable turn for the worse, the Weavers — as many residents in the remote and breathtaking area — taught their children to be self-sufficient and defend themselves with firearms from unwanted intrusions onto the family’s property.
But the Weaver’s seemingly idyllic life came to an appallingly violent end over several hours from August 21 to 22, 1992, in a horrendously botched federal raid that would also profoundly alter perceptions about the U.S. government in the minds of even ordinary Americans.

This was an atrocity. Randy Weaver would not bow to the
ReplyDeleteFBI's blackmail and this is the result. They are nothing
but gov legalized mass murders.
Brock, remember when you said the CIA did not do such things
as go after the black murderess in Cuba who murdered the
police - well guess again, per Ron Paul:

I ran across this report while cruising 'Truth Be Told'
site.
Ron Paul, my man and thanks.
DeleteWasn't Weaver's alleged crime that he had cut off the barrel of a shotgun a half inch too short for someone, who I suppose reported him to the BATF? --Ron W
ReplyDeleteAs I remember he did that for an undercover agent. When I grew up, entrapment was illegal and well should be.
DeleteAn undercover agent working for an agency for which the Feds have NO delegated powers. And without delegated powers from the States and the People (10th Amendment) the Federal Government may LAWFULLY do NOTHING! --Ron W
ReplyDeletePrecisely.
