You shouldn't confuse condemnation with what the government did in this case with an endorsement of the Weaver's beliefs. That's the same mistake Gerry's friend made in that letter posted earlier. You really ought to take the time to read Gerry's reply.

Let's assume for the sake of argument everything you think about the Weavers is true. Does that give the government the right to send paramilitary forces to execute them? That's what this is about for most people.

When you start to dig into the case you then realize he wasn't a tax evader, gun runner, bank robber, white supremacist, or even a violent revolutionary. Was he paranoid about the government? You bet, and in the end his paranoia proved correct.

The facts are clear. He wasn't convicted and the government paid millions to his children for murdering their mother. The facts are clear and they are not in dispute.

Exactly!

Good afternoon.
"He wasn't convicted and the government paid millions to his children for murdering their mother."

Actually, it cost a huge amount of money just to get to the siege itself.

The Feds paid salaries and blood money to set Weaver up and the Marshals spent months pulling surveillance on the Weavers and their property before the first shots were fired.

Four people dead and millions spent, all because they wanted a snitch and he wouldn't play.
