Total bullsht, the Ridgers fired first what did they expect .. US Marshals who wanted to serve papers re the failure of Randy Weaver to attend court for the unlawful manufacture and sale of a sawed off shotgun, arrived at the Weaver household on Ruby Ridge near Naples, Idaho on August 21, 1992 ..
Deputy US Marshal 42 yo William Francis Degan shot the Weaver's dog where upon 14 yo Samuel Weaver shot him dead, where after he was himself shot dead when the other Marshals returned fire. The next day on August 22, 1992 FBI sniper Lon Horiuchi fired two shots from 200 yards away, conflicting accounts say Randy Weaver was hit in the arm and that family friend Kevin Harris was wounded.
That Horiuchi's next bullet killed Vicki Weaver and her infant daughter precipitating an 11 day standoff, Harris and Randy Weaver later surrendered both were acquitted of murder, conspiracy and other Federal charges .. Weaver was convicted of failing to appear for trial on the firearms charge, the Federal Government declined to prosecute Horiuchi. ArsTechnica. Britannica.com. Wiki.
My own gut feeling is the whole issue was contrived, and that there has been a hoax / False Flag element at play since day 1.*
Weaver should have been anticipating a visit from lawmen for failing to appear, and when he became aware they were on his doorstep he should have had the dog chained up, and made sure his son was not gonna fire which is what he did .. Sammy Weaver started it all, it is well known officers of the law shoot aggressive dogs.
