Seems the FIB has taken concocting schemes and hoaxes to a whole new level.

[Avalon Memories]

After Ruby Ridge and Waco, we should have learned, but we didn’t. Now the FIB and assorted other higher ups in our fed government have attempted a hidden coup against a sitting president because they are of the opposite political party. They have run roughshod over ordinary Americans time and time again, and there does not seem to be any way to stop them.

The FBI; a taxpayer funded criminal organization.

The entire federal budget should be less than one billion dollars. We do not need these people.

I met Randy Weaver at a gun show where he was selling his book.
He was a very kind and humble man. I was very impressed by him.

[Psalm 73]

Franklin Graham's monthly magazine ("Decision" July/Aug), has a good article on Ruby Ridge 20 years on.

Anti-Christian, anti-Patriot activities of the FBI are NOT a new occurrence. Just, sadly more common.

...and Waco..

Weaver died in May of this year- he was only 74 I believe.

Ruby Ridge - Bill Barr’s “Waco”.

Money is more important than justice.

The DOJ and FBI are a disgrace. They are just thugs for the Democrat Party.

"The abuse is endless. When the Senate Oversight Committee had the temerity to investigate the DOJ, the CIA hacked into the Senate's computers to thwart the investigation. When questioned about it under oath they lied. CIA Director Brennan, Director of National Intelligence Clapper, and FBI Director Comey would prove to be serial perjurers and never face consequences."

And so it goes, on and on.. Those familiar names, same people, getting away with it over and over again.. It's a poison well, the DOJ. It desperately needs cleaning.

I learned the federal government can murder.
I learned the federal government employs people who love to kill.
I learned the people are pussies and will do nothing.

Weaver was framed for “making” a couple of sawed off shotguns. The hell of it is those are valid military weapons. In WWI they were used to clear tranches, actually called “trench guns”.

Americans refuse to learn the lessons of federal law enforcement abuse of power.

Director Danny Coulson, who did not know that Vicki Weaver had been killed,[93] wrote a memo with the following content:

Something to Consider

1. Charge against Weaver is Bull S___.
2. No one saw Weaver do any shooting.
3. Vicki has no charges against her.
4. Weaver’s defense. He ran down the hill to see what dog was barking at. Some guys in camys [camouflage] shot his dog. Started shooting at him. Killed his son. Harris did the shooting. He is in pretty strong legal position.[38]: 56

DOJ, FBI and ATF were all involved the executions and the coverup.
All on Bush41’s watch.
Then when they got away with it, the grabbed the National Guard and murdered 100 at Waco.

A couple of minor notes: Weaver and Vicki were not believers in Christian Identity - that was what Weaver was talking about when he said he had "discussions" with the Aryan Nations in Hayden. They knew who he was and that he wasn't one of them - showing up later wearing a wire would have been a death sentence. And a maybe-not-so-minor note: much of the hysteria surrounding the case was whipped up by media trying to frame the case as White Supremacist conspiracy - Geraldo Rivera's team claimed that Weaver shot at his helicopter, for example, which was a complete fabrication. Weaver was presented fraudulently as (1) a PTSD Vietnam veteran who (2) had his place surrounded by mines and booby traps, (3) was armed with automatic weapons, and (4) had sworn not to be taken alive. None of this was true.

Ruby Ridge: The Truth And Tragedy Of the Randy Weaver Family by Jess Walter, is a detailed and reasonably even-handed examination of the case. Highly recommended. And incidentally, when this wretched episode was finally played out in court Weaver and Harris were cleared of all charges except one count of failure to appear.
