The 90's were a bizarre time for federal law enforcement, to say the least. With the rise of right-wing militancy and the blossoming militia movement, anti-government sentiment was at a level not seen before in decades amongst the radical fringes of rural society, helped in no small part by the breathtaking incompetence of armed federal agents. Join Tim and Derek as we discuss the first boiling-over of this terrible combination as we discuss the 11-day standoff between US Marshals and the heavily armed and delusional Weaver family in the ranges of rural Idaho.
Rules anytime law enforcment either fucks something up or does something fucked up Derek calls a sip, 3 sips, or a shot.
