Let me guess, you have a diorama of the whole scene in your living room, right? No diorama, wasn't there and neither was deputy Cluff. Of course you ignored the main point that escapes Frank. RUBY RIDGE WENT DOWN BEFORE CLINTON OR RENO WERE IN OFFICE. So, I'll stipulate again, I'm referring to illegal activity by law enforcement, U.S. Marshals and the FBI, not Reno or Clinton. They came later. Not that I care to get in a dialogue with gun nuts, but why is it so many of you don't seem to know or care that Four ATF agents were killed by the Waco extremists weeks before the final confrontation. Labeling people doesn't do much to advance your argument. I guess you believe the people in the church fired first. I don't. I guess you believe they shouldn't defend themselves. I do. Some ATF agents were killed by friendly fire. They were incompetent and acting illegally. The hypocrisy of the right is astonishing...not one comment and absolutely no outrage on the shooting of Amadou Diallo or Patrick You believe the right and left thing, not me. There is nothing righteous about these incidences. Poor training and "rogue" actions by police have put many people at risk in areas like LA (Rampart scandals) and I have personally protested this. .but you hold candlelight memorials for Randy Weaver's dog. don't know the dog's name, but Randy Weaver's wife was Vicki and his 14 year old son was Sammy. This was a family values thread. Things change!
