For those of you who don't know who Randy Weaver is, you are in for a shock. If you believe our government is some sort of loving, caring, big brother, you need to find out about what happened to Mr. Weaver. How our own government agents shot his 14 year old son in the back, killing him. How a Federal Sharpshooter shot Mrs. Weaver through the head, killing her, while she was unarmed, holding her infant daughter. Most importantly, how Mr. Weaver was acquitted of the trumped up charges the government filed against him, and how he won millions in a lawsuit against the feds.

I found an essay about Randy Weaver at "Essays by Louis Beam". I don't know who Louis Beam is, or what he's about, but I agree with 99.9% of what he says in this essay. Check out Louis's web site.

I found this report from the US Department of Justice.

Congresswoman Chenoweth of Idaho gives her statement to the House of Representatives, March 6, 1996, regarding the Weaver tragedy.

Here is an excellent chronology of the whole event put out by the LEXIS Council, an information site for attorneys.

This News Release from the NRA details the settlement Mr. Weaver received from the Government from his suit against them.
