Hindsite is 20/20, it all could have been handled better. But that is irrelevent.

If these men weren't WHACKED-OUT KOOKS who HATE anything different than their selfish little world view, a lot of people would be alive today. (Well, probably not, I'm sure they would have found a way to get into some kind of stupid, ego driven, deadly confrontation sooner or later).....

Dumbasses. All they had to do was cooperate. To hell with them.

You mislead by failing to mention that the FBI killed Vickie Weaver from ambush, without announcing their presence or asking anyone to surrender ( source-- 9th Circuit Court of Appeals case, 2001 --Idaho vs. Hourichi).

Funny, that's how I'm seeing you now. Thanks for your forthright replies. Most people aren't honest or brave enough to reveal their wanton ignorance so plainly. You've saved me the effort of paying attention to any future twaddle that has your name attached.

Isn't that what they told the Jews who were shot for refusing to get on the trains?

Refusing to comply with unConstitutional laws, refusing to accept drummed-up charges (do you KNOW the "violation" that Randy Weaver was "guilty" of?), and refusing to capitulate to power-mad authorities is to be applauded, not punished by the death-penalty-without-a-trial.

You've got that right!!

The FBI snipers had not yet announced their presence and had not given the Weavers an opportunity to peacefully surrender.

Tell me, exactly in what order, whether it be executive or congressional, were the first 10 Amendments to the Constitution suspended? The FBI didn't even bother announcing itself!! They just started opening fire. According to you while I sit here at the computer if the FBI feels I have done something wrong they can take me out from across the street?

If these men weren't WHACKED-OUT KOOKS who HATE anything different than their selfish little world view, a lot of people would be alive today.

Maybe if the general government's troops had bothered following the Constitution of these United States and announced themselves it might have worked out a bit better too!! Whacked out kooks? You might want to check your history Johnny, these United States were started by what I imagine you'd call 'Whacked Out Kooks'
