Wait.....you are proud she arms her children and teaches them to hate the government and repect her as a mother and wonder how the children could get hurt when the government comes calling. Wake up lady.
I didn't say I was "proud" of her. As I said, she was the strong one in the family because she had to be. Randy was not the best provider (he was rather shiftless) and it was she who helped the family become almost self-sufficient. She learned to raise food, can, sew all the clothes, and home-school the kids while Randy bummed around at Aryan Nation meetings. That, in my opinion, makes her a good mother. And a remarkable woman.
I and most of us do not agree with the Weavers' beliefs, but they were not harming anyone up on that mountain until the government came along.
And you would be proud if she had taught her children to love their government and that guns are bad? You wake up.
