Feds allow Ruby Ridge's Randall Weaver to visit NH Domestic Terrorists during stand-off

Ruby Ridge's Weaver offers support for N.H. tax-evading couple

By PHILIP ELLIOTT
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

PLAINFIELD, N.H. -- Randy Weaver, the symbol of everything the government hopes to avoid with convicted tax evaders Ed and Elaine Brown, offered advice to the fugitives and warnings to federal agents at the Browns' fortified home on Monday.

The home, which Brown calls a castle, has 8-inch-thick concrete walls, a turret that offers a 360-degree view of the property and a driveway that is sometimes barricaded with SUVs. The 110-acre compound is self-sufficient and is capable of running entirely through solar, wind and geothermal energies.

Officials cut power and telephone service last week in an effort to ratchet up pressure on the couple convicted of scheming to avoid federal income taxes by hiding $1.9 million of income between 1996 and 2003. The Browns said they hadn't noticed the changes, they can survive on generators and they have 103 wooded acres to keep them warm this winter.

Ed Brown has threatened "guerrilla warfare" and retaliation against those who played a role in his conviction. He skipped his trial.

1. I think a Daisy-Cutter ...
should take care of this threat.

This WILL have a Waco style ending. This nut-job has already made that decision.
There is no sense wasting time and risking lives waiting for a peaceful ending, when this criminal has vowed to bring it to a violent end.

These fuckers should be blown to hell. Sorry, I have no sympathy for anyone like this.
Drop a Daisy-Cutter over the house, and stop wasting time with these anti-American assholes.

Cheers
Drifter

9. Holy shit.
I was thinking maybe they could DE-ESCALATE the situation rather than fuck everything and blow everybody up. Completely.

Call me crazy.

Holy shit.

2. Bush won't touch them. I strongly suspect they are loyal RWers.
They are just more vocal about wishing to tear down the government by starving it. Bushco pretends they want a functional government (but we know the truth).

3. That bit of stupidity even puts Dumbya to shame.
I'm sure Mr. Brown and Mr. Weaver had a pleasant discussion of how to use wives and children as human shields.

10. These people would be right at home here in the 9/11 forum
They believe that the Illuminati and Freemasons are controlling the US government and that Bush and the government was behind 9/11.

Interesting side note that they are allying themselves with Weaver (of Ruby Ridge fame), a member of the Aryan Nation (White supremacist nutjobs).

They have a little forum on their website http://www.makethestand.com where people discuss the favorite conspiracy theory of the day, including one of the current Health forums hot topics, how the FDA is trying to "destroy natural cures"

Oh and they support Ron Paul for President.
