Nah, I'm thinking more like the Kempeitai. Waco was Lon's minor attempt to emulate the Japanese Imperial Army's "Three Alls Policy" (kill all, loot all, burn all)Lon Horiuchi + "I was acting according to my orders" = Einsatzgruppen
Anybody who LIKES Lon Horiuchi should be considered too dangerously unstable to BE in law enforcement.The ad is designed to appeal to the law enforcement market. That is, for LEOs who know and like L.H. I'm sure HS wasn't thinking of the civilian marksman.

What happened at Ruby Ridge is no more of a mystery than what happened at Malmedy. The only mystery is why people would dirty themselves in both cases defending the perpetrators.I have a wild idea! Since everyone "KNOWS" the same information I do (i.e. internet evidence) shouldn't we all simply man-up and admit that NO ONE HERE KNOWS ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED?

Just a pet peeve, but in the United States, law enforcement officers are civilians too.The ad is designed to appeal to the law enforcement market. That is, for LEOs who know and like L.H. I'm sure HS wasn't thinking of the civilian marksman.
Defending a murderous sociopath (whom I have met)
Kind of like Rheinhardt Heydrich's endorsement of IG Farben's product as a satisfied customer... that product being Zyklon-B... But hey, "Deputy Reichsprotektor of Bohemia and Moravia" is a REALLY snazzy title...Guys- read that catalog page more carfefully. They did not hire that creep as a spokesman. They published a statement from a satisfied customer. The letter was written not for Horiuchi's personal perspective but by him as the then head of the FBI sniper program.
At this point it's looking pretty certain. How many Infantry captain Horiuchis were there in the Army in '81?Whom you said you think you might have met
So this guy has exibited this type of behavior since 81 and still he gets to the top of his field in the Gov. Never fire only promote seems to be the rule of the day.
Maybe technically, but have you seen the way they are trained now?benezra said:Just a pet peeve, but in the United States, law enforcement officers are civilians too.
Randy Weaver was "selling" to the 'ATF - who entrapped him by insisting he cut a barrel below legal limit. All this in order to persuade him to infiltrate a group and become an informant. He refused, and that brought him up on the charges, then the raid.You're confused. Randy Weaver was the one selling to the Aryan Brotherhood other violent White supremacist groups.
Either you didn't understand my point or you didn't understand my point. The training is now militarized and centers around escalating to a physical confrontation followed by overwhelming force. Police training now subtly but heavily emphasizes a shutdown of conscience and a focus on following orders in the quest to force compliance from the citizen. I have seen it with my own two eyes. I have seen the result with my own two eyes. Most of us here have read dozens of current news stories with our own two eyes that confirm this.beatcop said:LEO training is regulated in State statutes. It is also reviewed by civilians to ensure compliance with all sorts of directives, i.e. test scores, content, annual or periodic re-certification, instructor credentials, etc.
