I watched that from my barracks in Japan. I had served 5 years in the Marines at that point and it was the only time I felt, “WTF am I serving/fighting for if the government can do this...”

With this traitor as BATFE head... The site of burning buildings may become even more commonplace.

Damn them to the deepest part of Hell.

Nobody contends Korean wasn’t a nut.

Problem is, the raid was perpetrated over failure to submit 4 pages of paperwork and a $200 tax - NOT over child abuse.
And the new ATF director orchestrated the attack.

Exactly.

Shaky Jake Reno wanted a big headline to push the agenda forward.

Quietly nabbing the nut case on one of his trips to town doesn’t garner a lot of print media.

And Ruby Ridge.

The short version is this: Randy Weaver and his wife Vicki moved with their four kids to the Idaho Panhandle, near the Canadian border, to escape what they thought was an increasingly corrupt world. The Weavers held racial separatist beliefs, but were not involved in any violent activity or rhetoric. They were peaceful Christians who simply wanted to be left alone.

Specifically for his beliefs, Randy Weaver was targeted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) in an entrapping “sting” operation designed to gain his cooperation as a snitch. When he refused to become a federal informant, he was charged with illegally selling firearms. Due to a miscommunication about his court date, the Marshal Service was brought in, who laid siege to his house and shot and killed his wife and 14-year-old son.

Due to his ongoing refusal to snitch, Weaver was then arrested in January 1991, on illegal firearms sales charges. These charges stemmed from Weaver’s earlier “sale” of two shortened shotguns to Faderley, the undercover ATF agent – a sale which the feds later admitted constituted illegal entrapment.

"David Chipman was the BATF case agent in the Waco Massacre."

Yes, and he didn't have to overcome that to get this appointment; that was one of his primary qualifications!

I have my suspicions.

How did so many at Eloheim City get off Scot-Free with only McVeigh and Nichols busted?
How did Richard Rogers of Ruby Ridge infamy get sent to Waco?
Why didn't Koresh get arrested in town?

That's not to mention the BATF's history of entrapment and the FBI's own history of covering up their pets like Bulger.

That’s all true. They could have arrested on many occasions, away from the hands. They wanted him guns, not child abuse.

Very true, although I do not believe Chipman was a part of that operation. He was in Virginia at the time.

"He was a nut but the Feds utterly screwed that up."

They didn't screw up. They did it that way deliberately, just like they deliberately sent thousands of weapons to the Mexican drug cartels.

And Chipman was in DC for that operation. He was probably a part of that one.

He can recruit Antifa and BLM to assist him. They've got plenty of experience.

Sure, put those involved in the bloody disastrous Branch Davidian event in charge!

Good gawd!
