This was during the GHWB administration. Barr should be asked for his current views.
Hi.
Let’s see...we have Wounded Knee II. We have Ruby Ridge. And last but not least we have Waco (One).
Wasn’t Lon Horuchi at them all?

These were the actual FBI rules in effect on deadly force at the time of Ruby ridge.
“Agents are not to use deadly force against any person except as necessary in self-defense or the defense of another, when they have reason to believe that they or another are in danger of death or grievous bodily harm. Whenever feasible, verbal warnings should be given before deadly force is applied.”
These are the “special ROE” The FBI under Barr put out at Ruby Ridge.
“If any adult in the area around the cabin is observed with a weapon after the surrender announcement had been made, deadly force could and should be used to neutralize the individual.”
“If any adult male is observed with a weapon prior to the announcement deadly force can and should be employed if the shot could be taken without endangering any children.”
The FBI makes up whatever “rule” it needs. If any local police department adopted this same rule at a SWAT standoff, The DOJ/FBI would immediately launch a pattern and practices lawsuit and go for a consent decree with them running that department.
Ditto if a local department decided it would never record interactions or interviews and instead decided they would have the cop involved just wrote a synopsis of the interview.
The FBI is corrupt
There were better choices out there for AG. I’m afraid Barr is going to be another sessions, only without the recusal.
I had not paid much attention to Barr and his various misdeeds but this one is the one which got to me.
Trump needs to withdraw his nomination immediately. If not then it is a serious snub of his base.
Yet another warning sign. This guy will be even worse than Sessions.
He’s a Swamp Creature.
His allegiance is to Fedzilla, not the citizens.
I can't for the life of me understand why the trigger man is still alive and breathing. Same goes for the slime who shot the boy in the back. And, those scum who stormed the Branch Davidian compound. Maybe it's my age, but I couldn't sleep if dirt bags like these murdered my family members.
Barr supports the FBI gestapo cowards murdering women, children and babies. Trump needs to withdraw this nomination. Barr is a deep state traitor and will undermine Trump.
The more I learn about Barr, the less I like.
Why, oh why, is Trump nominating these types?
Who is whispering in Trump’s ear and why is Trump listening to him?
I have to conclude that there are still back-stabbers in Trump’s inner circle.
Anyone that defends the cold blooded murder of an infant baby has mental problems to go with their defects of character.
Read that President Trump took the George W. Bush’s recommendation and nominated Barr.
Big mistake if true.
I’m liking this nominee less and less.
PULL this nominee!
The only way to tell if a nominee is good or bad is too see if the Senate confirms him. If confirmed he’s bad.
