David Koresh was living in peace and bothering nobody, as I recall. That family up on Ruby Ridge in Idaho was living in peace and bothering nobody. Richard Jewell down in Atlanta was living in peace and bothering nobody. What do they, and no doubt many others, have in common? They were all a little weird and a lot “different.” Therefore, all were fair game for media assassination and perfect targets for ambitious prosecutors and federal officers.
Remember, prosecutors are politicians and are usually using their jobs as stepping stones to higher elected office. Ranking police officers are political hacks who owe their jobs to politician bosses. People who are not perceived positively by the public, such as white supremacists, religious fanatics, good ol boy rednecks, or rich white boy college students in a black town are perfect grist as these elected swine grind their way upward to better things. The only trouble is that it is not against the law to be a white supremacist, religious fanatic, good ol boy redneck or a rich white boy. Aren’t they protected by the constitution just like your average Muslim Jihadist or illegal Mexican migrant?
I don’t know too much about Mr. Jeffs. I am against polygamy and against older men having their way with young girls. But, in this day and time I would have to look long and hard at the evidence before automatically condemning any person on the say-so of a prosecutor.
As far as the Muslims are concerned, if they are practicing polygamy in this country, I’m sure they won’t be hindered. The big mistake these fundamentalist Mormons made was not publicly supporting Al-Qaeda and actively demonstrating for open borders with Mexico.

Kudos to Mr. Huggins for his concise explanation of the perverse climate we live in. My only quibble is with the following point:
“People who are not perceived positively by the public, such as white supremacists, religious fanatics, good ol boy rednecks, or rich white boy college students in a black town are perfect grist as these elected swine grind their way upward to better things.”
Far more than any negative public perception, the folks on Mr. Huggins’ list suffer from being on the fecal roster of our ruling elite, who control the media and routinely manipulate public opinion for their own purposes.
Randy Weaver (Ruby Ridge), by way of example, was described as a “white supremacist” in every media account. That is not an accurate description of Weaver at all. He was a “survivalist” whose position was quite different from that of David Duke. Nevertheless, the Feds targeted him. They murdered his son and his wife in cold blood – and the Federal agents were never held to account in any way, shape or form. Does anyone honestly think that any Federal agent who killed a member of the Ayatollah Farrakhan’s heavily armed “Fruit of Islam” militia in the course of a full-bore gunfight would be able to skate in this way?
A Muslim jihadi terror cell operating within our borders would likely enjoy little if any public support. Yet, I’ve never seen anything approaching the type of smear campaign leveled against the hapless Richard Jewell at the hands of the media whores and the moneybags who call the shots. Why is that? The whores and their pimps would arguably make even more money if they were to target the jihadis – who have heaps of skeletons on their closets. Don’t hold your breath! [As you’ve already said so well: the presstitutes are chicken]
I’ve come to the point that I believe prosecuters and enforcers are species to be avoided, especially the federal type. “The State vs. The People” by Claire Wolfe and Aaron Zellman should be required reading.
Kudos to Carolus. However, I offer one minor point of correction: Randy Weaver was a white separatist. Weaver had attended a “neo-Nazi” meeting crawling with ATF and FBI agents and informants. Nearly half of the attendees were federal agents while the other half was comprised of misguided misfits. I wonder if the feds were looking for agent provocateurs? Nah. Everyone knows that all governments, especially “democratic” ones, would never commit
or seek to commit “unlawful” (It can’t be unlawful if the State does it?! Right?!) deeds to aggrandise power at the expense of innocent lives. Of course not! The problem with Randy Weaver is that he picked the wrong religion. If he would have picked black meteorite-worshipping Islam or State-worshipping Democracy he would have been left alone.
