Weaver's son was shot after he fired on federal law enforcement officers. Somehow I don't think that many of the people who regard his death as such a tragedy would feel the same way if he was a Socialst Workers Party member - or a member of an al Qaida sleeper cell.
Weaver was nothing more than a gun runner for the sort of folks who have bombed buildings, robbed banks, and carried out terrorist acts - oh, yeah, and killed cops.
Of course, I'm still very interested in learning of Janet Reno's role in that.
