Never heard of him until recently. Looked up his story. Sounds like all he did wrong was possess a SB shotgun illegally and fail to appear in court. In response the government murdered his friend and wife. Is this a fairly accurate understanding? Or am I missing something.

Actually he refused to infilterate a white supremecists orginzation for the feds...he sawed a bbl of a shotgun for an undercover officer to the legal 18"s but the overall length was 1/2" too short, thus the "charge".

He was and is a white SEPARATIST not supremacist.

Aftermath of the Ruby Ridge Incident

Weaver was charged with multiple crimes relating to the Ruby Ridge incident, including the original firearms charges and murder. Attorney Gerry Spence handled Weaver's defense, and argued successfully that Weaver's actions were justifiable as self-defense. The jury acquitted Weaver of all charges except that of failure to appear, for which Weaver was fined $10,000 and sentenced to 18 months in prison. He was credited with time served plus an additional three months, and was then released. Subsequently, the government paid $308,000 to Kevin Harris (who was acquitted of all criminal charges), $100,000 to Randall Weaver, and $1,000,000 to each of the surviving Weaver children to settle their lawsuits against the government.

No that doesn't mean I think the government's murderous actions were justified. They were clearly in the wrong, but I'm not going to rush out read his books, ask for his autograph and talk about him like he is some kind of martyr.

Randy lives in North Central Arkansas now and just desires a quiet private life,  I don't know if he's a member here but I know he's a good man, some of his beliefs are a tad far out for me.  He believes in ZOG, the Zionist occupied government, IOW he thinks Jews run the gumnint.

I think it's just a JOG, or Jackass Operated Government.  Other than that, he was entrapped.  I once got married over being harrassed to do so.  He finally sawed off the shotguns to shut the idiot begging him to do so up.

"I just went to the Klan picnic for the potato salad and horseshoes"

Weaver admits that the guy he sold the shotgun to said he was going to rob banks and attack armories in the US. Despite knowing this Weaver sold him a gun, a gun he had reason to know was going to be used to kill innocent americans.

Now a decent human being, being told by some scumbag that the scumbag was going to start shooting up banks and US military facilities would have, oh, maybe contacted the authorities in an attempt to prevent the death of innocent americans. Ole Randy sold him a gun. He's a piece of shit and it's a disgrace that he shows up at gun shows.

I beg to differ. The Courts ruled that he was entrapped. That he was tricked and coerced into the whole sawing off of the shotgun and he WAS exonerated.....
I knwo several people who thought they were going to a shoot or campout etc... and when they got there they realized that they were not in place they like.
As a matter of fact i know a whole lot about aryan gangs because of my line of work and know that that is exactly how they do it.

I highly doubt that anyone here knows the real truth.

The feds could have manufactured the whole case about his gun being too short. The ATF has a history of this type of abuse.

The feds could be being totally honest about everything and it was just a big FUBAR and a couple inocent people got killed.

Probably some place in between.

Best info that I have been able to find is that he was a seperatist not supremesist. He refused to be a snitch for some ABC agency. And sold a shotgun to an UC agent. There is a bunch of controversy on the exact nature of the transfer and the length of the firearm.

Even if the gun violated the 1939 NFA act there is no reason to do what was done to him. It is a $200 tax violation not worth anyones life. The NFA is unconstitutional as it is.

Again, he admits that the guy he sold the gun to had talked about attacking banks and armories, it's in his book. I think he also admits that he knew what the meetings he went to were. He does say something along the lines that he went and it wasn't for him or somesuch. Personally I think he's pussy footing around but I could care less if he's a neo nazi or not.

I don't doubt that it is possible he never broke the law and that the informant cut the shotgun barrel. I'd flip a coin on that one. Also the court screwed him over by illegally issuing a warrant for him.
