Randy Weaver, the man involved in the Ruby Ridge Standoff, has died at the age of 74. 

According to a post by his daughter, Sarah, he passed away Wednesday 

A cause of death for Weaver has not been released.

Weaver‘s wife Vicki and 14-year-old son Samuel were killed by an FBI sniper during a standoff in the mountains of Idaho in 1992.

Weaver and his three daughters surrendered almost two weeks later. 

Weaver faced charges but was acquitted  except for the original bail condition violation, and served 16 months in jail. 

The Weaver family settled a $3.1 million lawsuit with the Justice Department.

Vicki was murdered by Lon Horiuchi:
Lon Tomohisa Horiuchi (born June 9, 1954) is an American former Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Hostage Rescue Team (HRT) sniper and former United States Army officer who was involved in the 1992 Ruby Ridge standoff and 1993 Waco siege. In 1997, Horiuchi was charged with manslaughter for the death of Vicki Weaver at Ruby Ridge, but the charges were later dropped.
Words have meaning and this man should be held accountable for murdering Vicki while she held her baby. While her body could not be moved from the house because Bill Barr ordered the death of any adult on site, the FBI used megaphones to ask Randy what Vicki was preparing for supper.

Actually Vicki was murdered by Lon Horiuchi an FBI sniper as you state. Sammy , however, was shot in the back with a 9mm by a US Marshall. Same net effect….
Both of these scum need to be doxxed with current photo’s and home addresses.

With this, I do not disagree.

Tragedy of the Commons

Where are the snipers at for types like Barr, Horiuchi and a Hell of a lot
more. I would celebrate such snipers as real American snipers.
Barr is a fat slob of communist decent.

Today we are all Randy Weavers that don’t believe in the globohomo narrative, those of us that believe in freedom and liberty are enemy’s of the state.

This was heartbreaking when it unfolded, and it continues to be a heartbreak. In the 1980s and 90s, our FBI and its cousins were so arrogant that they felt they could kill anyone or harm anyone, calling it DOJ justice. We don’t need these agencies or the federal government any longer. Our states are perfectly capable of policing real threats, rather than assumed threats to federal authority. It’s a good day to call all of you US and State representatives asking them to initiate impeachment proceedings against the regime(s) in Washington, DC. We could do this in honor of Weaver. God Rest His Soul.

That won’t work, Gail. Tom has the solution. Only problem is how to implement it.
