I remember when those happened seeing janet reno in press conference pretty much frothing at the mouth about how nobody is above the law. And when she said "the law" you knew she meant her capability to kill them and their family.
Well, those incidents brought about a rather explosive response from legitimately radicalized rightists that spooked the feds so badly, they didn't attempt any more over-the-top oppressive mass murders of American citizens in the Waco/Ruby Ridge style, not even when they had the chance and media cover at the Bundy ranch (until now, apparently). But I guess all lessons are forgotten in time unless regularly practiced.
The OKC bombing glows in the dark. Timothy McVeigh, Terry Nichols, and multiple witnesses have all maintained there was a third bomber. A FOIA request was filed for the security tapes, and the minutes when the truck pulls up to the building are missing.
I've heard this theory before, but not a good answer as to why the feds would stage the bombing in the first place. If it was to reduce public sympathy for and the growth of militias, it seems to have failed pretty badly - the Clinton administration evidently didn't feel public opinion had changed enough to let them massacre the Montana Freemen a year later (and even 20 years later the Obama admin. didn't dare turn the Bundy ranch standoff into another Ruby Ridge either, as I had said) and militias continued to grow after the bombing anyway.
There will be Wacos/Ruby Ridges very, very soon.
They are accelerating at a speed that I never thought possible.
This really won't end well for anyone.

Either that or Mao
