Definitely guys capable of knowing too much.

What is HRT?

Were these agents involved in an operation that would be damaging to Obama?

I don’t think the baby that she was holding died. The FBI murderer shot her in the head. The teenage son was shot in the back by the feds in a separate incident.

I used to feel bad when things like this happened. Now I just.....can’t.

Were these two agents at Waco? If not, I don’t know were you get off besmirching the names of dead men who, as far as you can possibly know, have not done anything wrong or dishonorable.

That was the very first thing that crossed my mind — Obamacide.

The FBI is doing a real fine job at this by themselves! Almost as good as the BATFE has done.

Hostage rescue team.....door kicking teaparty harassment team.....IRS persecution enablement team..... call them
what you want but in the end they are a bunch of hired
guns selling their souls and their skills. And the people
they chose as the customers for their skills are the criminals infesting Mordor on the Potomac.

What is HRT? I am sure another FReeper must have said it is the hostage rescue team of the FBI. What is really unique about those guys however is that it is tier 1 operations team. There are only two other (known) tier 1 units - DEVGRU (better known as SEAL Team 6) and CAG (better known as Delta Force). In counter-terrorism/hostage-rescue duties, the HRT is better trained than Tier 2 units like the normal SEAL teams (non ST6 teams) and the Army Special Forces (Green Berets).

I would argue that the military is much more widely distributed with the proper equipment and training than the FBI could ever be.

How many helicopters does the military have versus the FBI? Don’t you think anyone who is part of a hostage rescue or response team would be on call and able to travel anywhere in the country at a moment’s notice?

I agree. There is no call for some of the comments I see on here, and it is embarrassing.

There is a lot to dislike about the way various governmental agencies are constituted and tasked these days (as I am referencing in my posts) but these men were doing their job.

They’re agents of an out-of-control feral government. That’s all you need to know.

The FBI Hostage Roasting Team was practicing their BBQ skills. Not to mention the fact that they have to practice shooting people to death As they attempt to escape the flames.

I am happy to see your post. In my opinion, that was one of the opening salvos by the government against the people in this country. We must keep in our minds what they have already done, as they are capable of doing it again.

I mourn any loss of life. I am saddened that these two humans died. Perhaps they had families at home. However, they will not escape my criticism as agents of this federal government, specifically the agency known to implement "shoot on sight" rules of engagement against Americans.

These may have been good men, but it is hard to forgive an FBI that has never apologized for the slaughter of innocents at Ruby Ridge and Waco. Those incidents may be twenty years old or so, but the are not forgotten. I have always believed they were the events that first exposed the rot within the US government. Beginning with those murders it became apparent that we now have an “us versus them” situation in this country, which is a reality that becomes more obvious each day. All agencies of the former federal, but now fascist government, have decided to wage war against the freedom loving people of America.
