The one thing that always gets lost when talking about Ruby Ridge and Waco is that it wasn't really two separate incidents. It was already mentioned that the strong response from the government in Waco was a follow on to this to set an example, but it's not really ever mentioned that the feeling was mutual on the part of the Branch Davidians, which is why they shot first and didn't ask questions. Ruby Ridge was a colossal fuckup.

It's crazy to think how different things might have been if, for once in their existence, the cops resisted the urge to kill some guy's dog

walgreenslatino posted:As Weaver was undoing the latch, FBI sniper Lon Horiuchi shot him in the back from 200 yards. As the trio attempted to run back through the cabin door, Horiuchi fired again. This bullet struck his wife Vicki in the head, as she clutched their 10 month old daughter, and killed her instantly. walgreenslatino posted:Lon Horiuchi was indicted for manslaughter for his second shot; the charges were dismissed based of sovereign immunity, as his actions were consistent with the rules of engagement drawn up by agents of the federal government.

Sodomy Non Sapiens posted:I'm not American so had never heard of this prior till now but have heard of the stuff it might have influenced (WACO, Oklahoma City bombing). It was a really cool read. Thanks OP, good posts, good thread. to put it in context, the oklahoma city bombing was meant to be retaliation for waco and ruby ridge... and it was the largest terror attack on US soil prior to 9/11

It'd be really interesting to see some writeups on similar incidents in other countries as well. I'm sure this kind of thing is not an unusual outlier. Great writeup OP! Also amusing to see Alex Jones has been a frothing boil on the taint of humanity since the 90s.

so basically if i draw up illegal rules of engagement and the drones mindlessly follow them no one can be prosecuted? didn't we fix that loophole after wwii?

I watched that PBS documentary on Netflix this morning. Was kinda surprised it was basically limited to the incident itself with just a brief afterword about the fallout and settlement afterwards. It's kind of baffling to me that the people in charge couldn't have known that Vicki Weaver was dead until days later. I mean, presumably they all would have heard the sniper's gunshot and gotten confirmation of the shots fired from the sniper himself? It's just hard to believe they couldn't have known.

tsa posted:and both of them are thought to be the key reasons that mcveigh did the Oklahoma city bombing, his alternative plan even being taking out the sniper that killed Vicki. Not so much thought to be as were the reasons, McVeigh specifically stated it was revenge, among other pants on head crazy reasons.

Bo Gritz is literally the most American name possible.

Bo Gritz ran for vice president in 1988 alongside David Duke, but then pulled out and repudiated him as an ignorant bigot and a racist (a shocking discovery I'm sure). He's also the basis for Hannibal from the A-Team

Bo Gritz is a loving scam artist who took in who knows how much money to search for missing POWs in Vietnam. He never found anyone, probably never really tried. Nor did he find any evidence. It's going to be a happy day when he finally dies.

It's just hard to believe they couldn't have known. killcam off spectator mode off 200 yards a person is fairly small. there is a good chance they suspected but had no way to confirm without getting the holed up dudes to directly tell them, which is probably easier if you say things like "let vicki go, look we named our staging area camp vicki"

There's definitely neo-nazi skinheads who were mad and are still mad about Ruby Ridge. I know that most flippant people aren't being completely serious when they wish death on the Weavers or whoever. But I think the way the state has co-opted and neutered dissent against explicit state violence, by making two political sides identify respectively either with the Unimpeachable Cops or against the Unforgivable Racists, is one of the scariest lingering effects of the siege.

we're talking about a guy who was old enough to remember the 1960s and wasn't a hippie, of course he was a racist. he moved to idaho, where all the antisocial white nats go. if he was a normal good old boy racist he'd be in a city somewhere actively hurting minorities with one manner of public policy or another i've met guys like randy before. they're "woke" racists. they'll go on and on with this patronizing stuff about black people and how its really the fault of the zionist occupation goverment (ZOG) that we're forced to suffer one another he'll never fly a weird flag or wear SS bolts but he harbored deep seated brokebrains poo poo that made him want to move to idaho and get away from it all walgreenslatino posted:I know that most flippant people aren't being completely serious when they wish death on the Weavers or whoever.

Thats just the thing though, this kind of response was not developed in the 1990s, you can see acts like this all over the place in the late civil rights era and echoes of Pinkteron response during the labor movement era Former DILF fucked around with this message at 20:27 on Aug 22, 2017 |

walgreenslatino posted:On August 21st, 1992, United States Marshals began scouting a remote Idaho cabin not far from the Canadian border. The events that would follow would shock the country and give energy to movements both well-intentioned and evil. The shockwaves from Ruby Ridge can be felt everywhere from the defense at Confederate monuments, to the election of Donald Trump, to anti-government protests both Left and Right. It is probably the single most important American political event of the 1990s. It revitalized the right wing, the defense of the second amendment, the fear of government overreach, the militia movement, white nationalists, anti-globalists, and more. At least when the new York Times or American Rennaisance or Breitbart writes about it I can find out what their editorial standards are. I didn't know anything about you.
