the government seemed to act nuts in this case and yet weaver shouldnt have vowed to fight so i blame both sides maybe
weavers story is they set him up and later gave him a court date that was the wrong date so he showed up i think and they said wrong day, so he decided to just drop out of society and ignore them
they said he cut a gun shorter by a quarter of inch i think than whats legal
he was a white separatist, not really overtly against blacks etc i dont think-althogh he did attend some ayran nations meetings who are pretty much nuts
the jury ruled in his favor but i dont think they sent them to jail
mexico did the same in 1968 i think and slaughtered 500 students
