14-year-old Sammy was shot in the back while running back to his father, Randy.

Weaver’s wife was shot in the head by a sniper while standing at the door holding their 10-month old baby.

The same pig that started the ball rolling on the Waco inferno.

This kind of thing happens very often, but it’s now local SWAT teams doing no-knock raids on the wrong house, shooting the inhabitants and asking questions later.

Ruby Ridge was the clue to where Federal law enforcement was going.

You are right. This atrocity should never be forgotten.

I think that had it not been for the bad publicity garnered by the Janet Reno directed slaughter at Waco, we would have seen more such outrages, thereafter. We should also remember the disgusting performance by now Senator Chuck Schumer, in trying to justify the Waco slaughter in the House Committee investigation that followed. The enemy of liberty is not at the gates, any more!

This stuff is escalating exponetially until at some point there is going to be a major pushback. This country is a tinderbox waiting for the right spark.

Lon Horiuchi still deserves a date with a needle for murdering Vicki Weaver.
