For those keeping score, this has not been America since Randy Weaver’s Ruby Ridge home was invaded by the FBI and/or U.S. Marshals in 1992, killing his wife Vickie and son Sam. For which, the U.S. Government, i.e., the U.S. taxpayer, paid $3.1 million dollars in damages. The settlement signaled that government agents were liable for the unwarranted deaths, but no one was held responsible.

The fabricated excuse was that Weaver had agreed to sell a sawed-off shotgun to a federal agent. To turn the gun-grabber narrative on its head, selling a sawed-off shotgun does not warrant execution. Shooting an unarmed woman and a boy however, does, but not where government agents are guilty.

The truth is that Weaver was a survivalist, living off the grid, not playing the game of complete transparency to the government. Weaver had ideas of being free and that just hasn’t flown in the United States of America for a very long time. One might say the American Indian is an example of how much authoritarians hate the very image of a free individual, owing nothing to government for subsistence, accountable only to themselves and their ingenuity. Plus, they occupied land that, if exploited, would end one of the many recessions the government had caused.

Since none of those involved in the murders of Vickie and Sam Weaver were ever held to account and even promoted so that they could run the Waco debacle a few months later where the deaths of 75 people including women and twenty-five children was also over federal firearms charges (I think failure to pay taxes on gun sales), plus they were religious, another sin to those who have been in charge of the U.S. Government under the guise of the Constitution, but obedient to none of it, for so long...........read more..........
