Trump's wrong on this one

For all the, um, men on a forum I was recently a member of who are suspicious that they will show up on this blog, keep your shirts on.

I have other fish to fry right now.

Specifically, Trump's Attorney General nominee, William Barr.

Barr defended Lon Horiuchi, the scumbag FBI sniper who shot Vicky Weaver in the back at Ruby Ridge while she was holding her baby, which there was absolutely no reason for him to do.

Horiuchi was at the Waco siege, too. Who knows how many Branch Davidians he shot and killed, also without reason.

He was a member of the FBI's elite "HRT" -- hostage rescue team. I don't know how the FBI defines "hostage rescue" but at Ruby Ridge and Waco, it seemed that they "rescued" hostages by killing them.

Horiuchi kept his cushy job with FBI after a slap in the wrist.

Ruby Ridge and Waco are the two primary reasons why I lost all respect for the FBI and have never recovered it -- and don't plan to.  Everything that has come out about the FBI in the recent past -- protecting Hillary Clinton's crimes and corruption, for example -- show that the agency is cruddy with the putrid slime of fraud and corruption. Americans are not safe with this malevolent beast as part of our government. 

Barr will probably be approved, more's the pity. 

This is the second time I have disagreed with Trump. The first was the missile strike on Syria. That turned out to not set off the catastrophe I thought it would. I don't have that much hope for AG Barr, though.
