20 Years: Ruby Ridge

Twenty years ago today, six men wearing cammo and carrying M16s and night-vision goggles crept onto the property of a northern Idaho man. They killed his son and wife. The murderers claim special immunity because they have guns and demonstrate willingness to kill anyone challenging them, and because they were "just following orders".

Wikipedia has more.

"Just following orders" applies to people in costumes, from time to time. Get used to it, or change it.

As a homeschool mom, I relate to Vicki and know that they don't care about women and children first. These guys today think the world is a video game and wouldn't hesitate to kill any one of us.
