On the morning of August 9th, at approximately 6 am, a SWAT team conducted a raid on the home of 75-year-old Craig Robertson. Robertson, a 300-pound Air Force veteran, had difficulty walking and used a cane. This fact alone would make an assassination attempt extremely difficult. However, he claimed to own a sniper rifle and his threats should not have been disregarded. Agents were attempting to serve him with an arrest warrant. Robertson was charged with making internet threats on the life of the president and other government officials. Reportedly the FBI attempted to enter the home with a battering ram. When this failed, they used a vehicle-mounted ram to enter via the front window. One law enforcement source claimed the suspect appeared to point a gun in the general direction of agents. There is no mention of who fired the first six shots. They were followed by FBI agents shouting: “Shots fired, shots fired. He’s got a gun!” This was followed by a hail of bullets.
After Robertson was shot FBI agents dragged him outside where they attempted to render first-aid. When seconds could be a matter of life or death it would seem advisable to render first-aid where he first landed. However, this would not have had the theatrical benefit of showing the FBI compassion for their victim. He later died on the sidewalk and his body was left under a white, blood-soaked sheet for approximately two hours.

Yet the similarities of these raids would mean that the “commanders on the ground” were using the same playbook. That’s the playbook written by the Soviet KGB. This playbook recommends pre-dawn raids in which the arrested person is dazed and half-asleep.An enormous show of force is advised to terrify neighbors.

The joy these bureaucrats gain from seeing people suffer is truly pathological.

Time to disband the FBI and rebuild from the ground up.
I notice the FBI never seems to do such “Junior 82nd Airborne” FBI raids in Chicongo or East St Louis.
"It appeared? It appeared?
What the hell does that mean?
One law enforcement source claimed the suspect appeared to point a gun\/

Behold the weasel words.
” claimed” + “ appeared”.
Not Observed and DID point,,oh no.
” claimed” + “ appeared”
to point a gun.

Waco , the sequel.
Chest compressions (CPR) for gunshot victims insures complete blood loss.
Waco , the sequel.
FBI(American Stasi) has been staging these gun blazing raids for damn near 100 years.
April 22, 1934 “Little Bohemia gained fame and infamy as the setting of a botched raid by the FBI (then called the Bureau of Investigation) against the John Dillinger Gang.” and at least one innocent bystander was killed.
“On July 22, 1934, FBI agents closed in on Dillinger outside of the Biograph Theater in Chicago and shot and killed him as he reached for his pistol.” Lots of glory.
Interesting since Dillinger had several prior arrests with no shots fired. Once by my wife’s uncle.
Dillinger & Dayton - Dayton Magazine
“On Sept. 22, 1933, Dillinger was arrested in Dayton.”
I would guess if a trained cop saw a person with a gun, the cop would say, “The suspect had a gun and pointed at law enforcement”.
Saying “It appeared” he had a gun, could mean anything.
The longer we go without seeing the bodycam footage, the more we know what really happened.
You bet. It’s my understanding most all of these commando style neighborhood raids are all videoed to avoid massive liability to the tax payers. Cops video these raids for that reason. Where is the video?
I read a pro-FBI article that said the FBI had several conversations with Robertson and tried to change his political opinions. But Robertson dug in. So the FBI felt that their bluff could not be called.
I don't think the FBI uses bodycams (or cameras to record interviews).
(That's just for the hoi polloi.)
Not buying that. No sale.
... to serve a warrant! Why don't they wait until 9AM and call the guy? Ask him to come to the station and arrest him at the station .... but no, the FBI MUST use lethal force on docile US Citizens ...
Along with the CIA, the DIA (Defense Intelligence Agency) and the rest of the military.
Madanna threatens to bomb the white house and .....nothing.
We have a criminal government and the fbi is just a modern day stasi.
Pre-dawn raid mens darkness to low light conditions inside, combined with swirling residue of vehicle collision and chaos of agents storming through window, means the FB of Panty Sniffers could claim they say Jesus Christ Himself grabbing an RPG and have some deniability of murder. It would be instructive to have a truly objective team locate and count all of the bullet strikes within the home. And dragging him outside gives them a handy excuse for the fact that there’s no weapon near him. Henceforth, anything - anything - the FBofPS says should be doubted and scrutinized ad infinitum.
