What are your thoughts on Weaver? n/t discntnt_irny_srcsm Dec 2011 #2

Oh ghod, no..... PavePusher Dec 2011 #4

So, what are your thoughts on Weaver? n/t discntnt_irny_srcsm Dec 2011 #5

Weaver was a racist fuck, who sold illegal guns and had the intellect of a hog. Hoyt Dec 2011 #8

Well he did make some rather dumb decisions.... discntnt_irny_srcsm Dec 2011 #11

At the very least. Hoyt Dec 2011 #13

Racist right, the rest... DissedByBush Dec 2011 #16

Hmm, this sounds a lot like Union Scribe Dec 2011 #58

You think that's a funny remark? nt ellisonz Dec 2011 #35

Gotcha! nt SteveW Dec 2011 #41

It's a stupid, denialist remark. ellisonz Dec 2011 #42

Right on target, buddy. You seem up on Timmy McVeigh and his fans... SteveW Dec 2011 #43

It's not hard to find links. ellisonz Dec 2011 #44

A common enough catch-all cite from SPL? Old stuff. nt SteveW Dec 2011 #46

2009? Old. ellisonz Dec 2011 #47

It's old. And a re-hash at that. nt SteveW Dec 2011 #50

It's unfair to mention the fact he didn't use guns for his terrorism. friendly_iconoclast Dec 2011 #36

Shall we start listing all those gun culture fans.... ellisonz Dec 2011 #39

Why not? We could also point out that they use computers to communicate with each other. friendly_iconoclast Dec 2011 #51

Can we blame "the gun culture" for the Weather Underground as well? friendly_iconoclast Jan 2012 #88

Do you think Aryan Nation/terrorists are deserving of due process? nt SteveW Dec 2011 #29

Yes, even though they don't give due process and Weaver was supplier of executioner's weapon. Hoyt Dec 2011 #55

Wrong rl6214 Dec 2011 #60

Weaver didn't belong to "aryan nation". beevul Dec 2011 #65

By golly if you go to Ayran Nation "events", you are a member, sympathizer, racist, and worse. Hoyt Dec 2011 #66

I know, Weaver is one of the upstanding gun owners the "gun culture" likes to tout. Hoyt Dec 2011 #67
