The unpunished atrocities of Waco and Ruby Ridge were the turning point for this country.

What would this America look like today had the government showed the people they would hold their own accountable for crimes committed under the color of authority.

When Weaver sued the federal government for the wrongful death of his wife and son, the government that had tried to kill him twice now sought an out-of-court settlement. In August 1995 the U.S. government paid the Weaver family $3.1 million.

As I understand it, it was $1M for each child and $100k for Randy himself.

Pfh.
