Yesterday marked the 30th anniversary of the beginning of the infamous Siege At Ruby Ridge, Idaho, where Federal agents shot and killed Sammy Weaver, a guiltless 14-yer-old boy and later on, his mother Vicky by shooting her in the face as she was standing in a doorway, holding her baby daughter in her arms.
Even though the shootings were classed as “constitutional” (!!!) by the FBI, the agency nevertheless paid husband Randy Weaver — the original target of the siege — $3 million after a civil lawsuit.
As this article in American Greatness points out:
[FBI agent Lon Horiuchi] shot and killed Vicki Weaver, who was unarmed, and neither accused nor guilty of any crime. For embattled Americans in 2022, it would be a mistake to regard this assault as a one-off.
“Desire to wage war on ordinary Americans—to disadvantage them and even to kill them—had long been bubbling in the ruling class’s basements,” wrote Angelo Codevilla, citing documents such as Hot Spots of Terrorism and Other Crimes in the United States, 1979-2008. This Department of Homeland Security study classified persons judged “suspicious of centralized federal authority” and “reverent of individual liberty” as “extreme right wing terrorists.”
As the man said, it’s not really paranoia when they really are out to get you.
Bastards.
Do a search on Lon Horiuchi + Bill Barr.
Lon Horiuchi belongs on trial for premeditated murder. Plain and simple. He should have been indicted with whomever wrote and authorized those rules of engagement. Numerous other people involved with Ruby Ridge belong in jail and they all worked for the government at the time,
JQ
Only agency that was not on the mountain that day was the CIA. ATF, FBI and a hat tip to the AirForce. An F5 Phantom provided photos.
Barr is a deep state drone as was Horuchi. They are a bi g club and we aren’t in it. Rat bastards all of them.
What’s an “F5 Phantom”? Can’t seem to find one in my copy of Jane’s.
In fairness: Vicki Weaver was armed with her deadly assault infant, probably with a high capacity magazine.
Thanks for the link Kim, that is so utterly shocking.
It is unfathomable why Horiuchi wasn’t done for 1st degree murder, and everybody involved should have been sacked. Fact they weren’t means the rot has been going on for over 30 years. Even back then when I at least had some residual respect for the feds.
Quite honestly you’d have to say anybody not classified as an extreme right-wing terrorist ( their definition) is a cuck or a complacent fuckwit.
“Serious mistakes occurred with regard to the Ruby Ridge incident,” testified Freeh,
I despise the passive voice cocksucking bastards like Freeh, Clinton, and many others use when a major fuckup happens on their watch. They are the Captain of the ship, and are damn well responsible for the fuckups of the people and organizations they run.
Horiuchi is a whole lot more guilty of murder than the cops who subdued St. George Floyd.
