Randy Weaver of "Ruby Ridge" infamy...............
He was a solid guy that got entrapped by the Janet Reno machinery of DOJ, FBI, and ATF......who were later responsible for the debacle at Mt. Carmel in Waco.

That Randy Weaver died, aged 74.
Fred Ward died also, aged 79.
It is Friday the 13th.... RIP guys.
Randy lived long enough to P on Janet Reno's grave.
May he RIP.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
RIP
Met Mr. Randy at a local gun show many years ago.
Have one of his books that he autographed for me.
You could see the aftermath of the Ridge in his eyes.
RIP Mr. Weaver, you are a true patriot.
Like Butchdog, I encountered Randy and his daughter, only at a gun show. It was a long time ago when the first book came out. I had already purchased the book but couldn't get myself to buy a second for the autographs. He looked quite worse for the wear even then.
Met his oldest daughter at one a number of years ago and bought her book. What a beautiful soul. I will never forgive myself for not driving the 80 miles to support them then and will not make that mistake again.
RIP, Mr. Weaver. Your life has had more meaning than the lives of 99%+ of Americans.

RIP .
my 2 cents Randy and his family had to endure no one should in America
just another foot note in the Government asserting there power over the citizens
also RIP Fred
