Weaver was/is a racist- no one denies that. But since he has neither been convicted or even accused of terrorist acts, he is by definition not a terrorist.
Likewise, those legislators whose votes you don't like are "criminals":

22. You sure do assume alot don't you?

Willing to abandon liberal causes to keep rethugs in office to protect your beloved guns.

Not fooling anyone. The state I live in has a strong pro gun Senator who is a Dem who pretty much votes progressivly.
The reason the NRA has the bat shit crazy leadership is because of people like you.

Who suck up to NRA and other right wing gun groups.

Do you happen to have a list of those "criminal legislators" handy, Senator?

Correct me if I'm wrong permatex Jul 2012 #41

I did not catch that, but would love to see a follow up. Remmah2 Jul 2012 #56

rational people don't ignore evidence they don't like gejohnston Jul 2012 #7

You mean like the Fortune investigation that you are ignoring? DanTex Jul 2012 #13

I'm not ignoring it at all gejohnston Jul 2012 #14

Yeah, law enforcement gave koresh 51 days to surrender. Hoyt Jul 2012 #22

Hoyt Meiko Jul 2012 #23

You made the assertion about Waco, I responded. Hoyt Jul 2012 #24

What I said Meiko Jul 2012 #25

Debating Hoyt on Waco permatex Jul 2012 #26

Sounds like blame the victims (dead agents who were guilty of nothing). Hoyt Jul 2012 #27

I rest my case. permatex Jul 2012 #28

The ATF murdered Meiko Jul 2012 #34

They had 51 days to surrender AFTER killing 4 agents. Even McVeigh knew that. Hoyt Jul 2012 #35

By sick and twisted logic that justifies BushII wars. Remmah2 Jul 2012 #36

Still beating that dead horse? permatex Jul 2012 #38

Actually, the day the 4 agents were murdered was not a flashy event. Things turned bad, Hoyt Jul 2012 #45

Hey Hoyt, permatex Jul 2012 #48

McVeigh supposedly thought Koresh was special and set out to avenge for him. Hoyt Jul 2012 #52

And that means what? permatex Jul 2012 #53

Actually, they did not. The ATF and other LE gave Koresh 51 days to surrender. He chose to hole Hoyt Jul 2012 #91

"The ATF did their job. " HALO141 Jul 2012 #90

The intent is not weather the ATF was right or wrong. Remmah2 Jul 2012 #37

Oh yeah. permatex Jul 2012 #40

It's good stuff. Remmah2 Jul 2012 #55

Bingo. Bait and Alert. The New DU3 Video Game. Best Game on The Nets -- Tuesday Afternoon Jul 2012 #68

The ATF is an embarrassment to us no matter which party is in office. Tuesday Afternoon Jul 2012 #11

I can agree with that Meiko Jul 2012 #20

Hey Hoyt Meiko Jul 2012 #42

Eye opening to those in the dark. permatex Jul 2012 #43

Probably Meiko Jul 2012 #44

I followed the Ruby Ridge and Waco sieges very closely permatex Jul 2012 #46

See post #47. permatex Jul 2012 #50

You called it Meiko Jul 2012 #63

Just another right wing hit piece that sounds like something neo-Nazis or KKK sympathizers would Hoyt Jul 2012 #47

You did exactly what I predicted you would do. permatex Jul 2012 #49

Of course, I'm not a supporter of armed terrorists or people who side with McVeigh, Beck, KKK, etc. Hoyt Jul 2012 #51

I am on the side of justice permatex Jul 2012 #54

Ask Koresh. He was given 51 days to walk out alive after he murdered agents. He chose not to. Hoyt Jul 2012 #57

Well, once again, permatex Jul 2012 #58

Weaver is/was a racist who wouldn't have gotten in trouble if he hadn't joined Ayran Nation. Hoyt Jul 2012 #59

I'll ask one more time permatex Jul 2012 #61

Sounds like prosecutors screwed up. You got a confirmed racist who trafficked Hoyt Jul 2012 #67

Sure, he was a racist d-bag who made bad decisions. Lizzie Poppet Jul 2012 #64

He hid behind his wife and child. No, it was an example of racist gun nuts gone awry from moment Hoyt Jul 2012 #69

You're very quick to libel those whose political views you disagree with, aren't you? friendly_iconoclast Jul 2012 #71

Are you defending those who sell guns illegally to Ayran Nation, KKK and worse? Hoyt Jul 2012 #72

He did not sell guns to either organization gejohnston Jul 2012 #73

I know, he was just at aryan nation meeting researching business opportunities. Hoyt Jul 2012 #75

we never said he wasn't a racist gejohnston Jul 2012 #77

I've got an assignment for you Hoyt permatex Jul 2012 #78

Entrapping a racist gun trafficker at ayran nation meeting? LMAO. He was there, Hoyt Jul 2012 #80

I get it permatex Jul 2012 #81

The truth is clear, just like in Zimmerman's case. Hoyt Jul 2012 #82

Why do you always bring up Zimmerman? permatex Jul 2012 #83

Like you care about the truth. You care about guns - that's your truth. Hoyt Jul 2012 #84

I again rest my case permatex Jul 2012 #85

Have you noticed sarisataka Jul 2012 #86

Yeah permatex Jul 2012 #87

+1. Once again, I need to repost this from a few years back: friendly_iconoclast Jul 2012 #89

He hung out with dodgy people, some of them criminals. Like you yourself used to be: friendly_iconoclast Jul 2012 #79

Everytime Hoyt posts here permatex Jul 2012 #76

I'm denouncing deliberate inaccuracy and McCarthyism. It's just as unacceptable when done by 'us'... friendly_iconoclast Jul 2012 #74

Yep: Godwinned in one! Lizzie Poppet Jul 2012 #60

I haven't put him on ignore because permatex Jul 2012 #62

Good call. Lizzie Poppet Jul 2012 #66

Actually Meiko Jul 2012 #65

Some people really dislike when facts conflict with preconceived notions. sarisataka Jul 2012 #70

Funny thing about the groups you mentioned. Remmah2 Jul 2012 #88
