Funny thing, though. The FBI agent who shot Vicki Weaver in the face never had to go to trial....

(He was never charged with a crime, but he was investigated, went before Congress, and the shooting was ruled Constitutional

You have a real problem with facts. Lon Horiuchi was charged in Idaho State court with manslaughter. The trial never occured because the Feds claimed soveriegn immunity.

The U.S. Marshals were not on the Weaver’s property,

Lie.

(I mean the BATF agents that successfully arrested Randy initial with no problems for a crime he did in fact commit)

Were you on the Jury? They felt differently. Weaver was acquited on the gun charge.

Here is a hint, if police officers are aiming guns at you or attempting to place you under arrest, and if you refuse, or shoot at them, you are waving your right to a trial and placing yourself in immediate danger.)

Familiarize yourself with US. v Cruikshank. The killing of Marshall Dugan was ruled justifiable by the Jury.

Government agents are no different than their fellow citizens

Sure they are. They have 'sovereign immunity' from prosecution for their illegal actions.

Ruby Ridge was tragic, but it is important not to lose sight of the fact that the law enforcement officers were there doing their jobs

So were the guards at Dachau.

Good use of name calling to prove your points (newbie, troll). It was equally impressive when I responded to all of your points, but you didn't respond to mine other than to call me a liar (the shot out was not on the Weaver's land, but the Marshalls previously were. I was not trying to lie, I was simply pointing out that the gun fight did not involve trespassing.) I will be glad to let the tread die, I was only responding to your reply because you spoke of my multitude of errors, and I wanted to clarify my statements so that you would understand what I meant. I am not interested in getting into a name calling match. If you wish to believe your government is a monsterous organization seeking to kill its citizens for no reason, you have that right.

I support our country's law enforcement agencies that are working to prevent its citizens from being murdered by gang members carrying sawed-off shotguns, white supremacists blowing up gay bars, children being kidnapped from bording schools, and dams being blow up to damage cities and not out power stations(which are the issue involved in this case).
