Sammy wasn't unarmed and had just fired at a Federal Marshal who was killed. Your defense of armed terrorists, their racist parents, including daddy Randy charged with selling illegal guns to Aryan Nation, who planned to use guns to intimidate minorities, is about what I expect from gunners.

In fact, Federal Marshals still claim little Sammy was shot by his racist/terrorist dad in the battle. Federal Marshals had camped outside Weavers racist compound for weeks giving him every chance to surrender peacefully. Weaver decided to hide behind his family and even send his kid out to kill a Federal Marshal.

You don't have any problems with that, or george zimmerman?

Interesting you'd post a link from a gunner long ago tombstoned for right wing gun crud.

Which gunners would that be, Hoyt? Have the courage of your convictions and point them out. friendly_iconoclast Aug 2016 #46

Daddy, introducing his daughter to lethal weapons, is to blame as well. Hoyt Aug 2016 #33
Are you saying the instructor's family SHOULD be entitled to money damages from girl's Dad? 63splitwindow Aug 2016 #34
I don't care about damages, the gun fanciers in this story are to blame. If I were on jury, Hoyt Aug 2016 #36
Awarding it to family of the instructor? Do you not see him PRIMARILY at fault for his death? 63splitwindow Aug 2016 #39
Both at fault, but he's dead. This dad and the next dad need to think about the consequences of Hoyt Aug 2016 #41
Their kids might enjoy it and get good at it? friendly_iconoclast Aug 2016 #45
Good at what, shooting silhouette targets. What does that prepare them for, joining the local Hoyt Aug 2016 #50
Or training for self-defense. Do you prefer inaccuracy while shooting? friendly_iconoclast Aug 2016 #57
Dad and little girl were shooting targets resembling people AT A DISTANCE, not self-defense scenario Hoyt Aug 2016 #60
Spare us your hypocrisy-you've defended shooting teenagers running away in the back... friendly_iconoclast Aug 2016 #61

How far where they shooting? Figure 9yrs old with an auto ain't gonna be too accurate at distance. n jmg257 Aug 2016 #64
Well, you are supposedly a gun expert, what does this look like to you. Not self-defense scenario. Hoyt Aug 2016 #68
Definitely looks a bit far to expect her to hit anything specific - that seems like 50 yrds or so. jmg257 Aug 2016 #71
Their new minimum age to shoot full auto is 12 years old. What could go wrong? 63splitwindow Aug 2016 #37

No, that doesn't cover it. Exilednight Aug 2016 #51
So ten-plus years of nothing happening isn't enough empirical evidence for you? friendly_iconoclast Aug 2016 #55
it hasn't been ten plus years. you pull up some thread from Exilednight Aug 2016 #58
