Weaver was not entrapped. He was given the opportunity to break the law and he chose poorly. He chose to further his beliefs illegally in stead of through lega means.
"rubble of the fire that they deliberately set"
The fire was set from within, are you a fire marshal now or just blind?
"Weaver was not entrapped. He was given the opportunity to break the law and he chose poorly."
He cut a shotgun barrel 1/8th of an inch too short.
The feds then deliberately misinformed him of his court date so that he'd get popped for another felony, and then sent an assassination squad to kill him and his family, all because he had committed the unpardonable sin of cutting a shotgun barrel 1/8th of an inch too short.
I used to work in a gun store. The feds didn't like it when we started posting pictures of known criminal informants and their federal agent handlers by the cash register, and they got real snarky about it.
There has always been a serious and legitimate question as to WHO cut off the quarter inch of wood that turned Weaver's shotgun into one which owed a tax to the FedGoons. Personally, given BATFag's track record, I would bet it was them or their "informant" who did the final saw work.
