“Now one of the witnesses has completed a gut-wrenching interview in which she says FBI agents fired an estimated 120 rounds at Finicum and his vehicle, six of which entered his body. “
Accuracy must not be a part of FBI training if this is true.
Smells like BS. But who knows. Old ‘Zero up there on that hill over yonder looking around himself knowing his time almost be up you hear? What if one of his young buck henchmen ready to move on up was told to order his men fire 120 rounds into some poor Patriot, and make sure it’s recorded.
Boom bang bing now when Old ‘Zero looks out he knows the view will never change.
“Accuracy must not be a part of FBI training if this is true.”
Sounds like Obama’s civilian army in action.
“Accuracy must not be a part of FBI training if this is true.”
After listening to the whole tape, and assuming the accuracy of the witness’ perceptions, this makes sense.
The FBI and whatever else organization could easily have killed all of these people at any time once they stopped the vehicle. They could have been shot to bits like Bonnie and Clyde.
Most of these people were not shot because fedzilla did not want them dead. This was an example. This was an act of State terrorism. The laser targeting, the car shot to bits and shot all around the passengers was to drive home their vulnerability. At least one had to die to prove the government’s willingness and resolve to execute dissidents, but the others were intended to be terrorized. They will mostly be let free to carry the story home. This is meant to intimidate and suppress dissenters. This is much more subtle and strategic than the federal atrocities at Ruby Ridge and Waco.
That is how I read it, anyway. Willing to hear other theories which account for this bizarre sequence of events.
When I was in Marksmanship Training School in Quantico in the mid 80s with the Marine Corps we read of an incident in DC where a man got on an elevator and tried to rob a man at gunpoint. Unbeknownst to him, the man he was trying to rob was an FBI agent. Both men emptied their weapons within the confines of the elevator. The worst injury was a powder burn. While being shot at is certainly an unnerving experience, FBI agents are supposed to be professionals. Sadly, the marksmanship hasn’t improve in 30 years.
It's hard to shoot straight when you're evacuating in your Cool GearQueer Tactical pants...
