Military tanks used by the FBI. Military aircraft purchased by the BATF. o Billions and billions and billions of dollars are diverted from children and needy people to pay for it all. o CALEA: all national infrastructure equipment must be designed from the ground-up to be spied on by the government. o Forfeiture laws mean: - Federal and state officials now have the power to seize your business, home, bank account, records and personal property, all without indictment, hearing, or trial. - Everything you have can be taken away at the whim of one or two federal or state officials operating in secret - The loss of basic American constitutional guarantees: due process, the presumption of innocence, and the right to own and enjoy private property

But Pennsylvania state law was ruled to grant them personal immunity from Federal civil rights charges because they were state employees [what???]. The incident occurred in May 1985. o Waco. CS tear gas attack by the FBI using Army tanks. The government, across the decades, keeps managing to burn people to death, rather than bringing them to trial. Often, tear gas is involved. ---- Randy Weaver at Ruby Ridge. Persisting, a BATF informant persuaded Weaver, a DECORATED GREEN BERET VETERAN of Vietnam with NO CRIMINAL RECORD, to sell him two shotguns, but insisted that Weaver saw the barrels off one-quarter inch short of the legal limit. Monitoring him, they knew Mr. Weaver needed money for his family. Why did the government target Mr. Weaver? Blackmail. One of the FBI's favorite activities is spying on political organizations. They wanted to use him to infiltrate white supremacists groups for the government. Or face prosecution. When Weaver refused, he was indicted on guns charges. He was sent two conflicting court appearance dates. He became paranoid the Government was out to get him, so he didn't show up. [He was eventually acquitted of all charges except the original not showing up in court!] To justify a militaristic retaliation, BATF agents lied to the U.S. attorney's office. BATF agents claimed that Weaver had a criminal record and that he was a suspect in several bank robberies. Both charges were fabrications, even according to BATF Director John Magaw, who admitted the accusations were "inexcusable" in testimony before C
