    There wasn't a 2-tier justice system under Obama.

    Awww... Now everything can be a conspiracy theory, but to people like you EVERYTHING is a conspiracy, where you and people like you are always the victim.

    Until we get details you are dabbling in an unknown. Every bad incident is not partizan politics just as every time an Afro-American gets shot it’s not about their race. This could go either way. The could have posed an imminent threat and moved or point his gun in a manner of shooting. It could be that an FBI agent lost his composure and fired. Every time a White Cop shoots a Black man the chorus sings “he must have did ——————- fill in the blank. The city’s adds let’s wait for the body cam. So let’s wait.

    Facts are not conspiracy.
    For you to call it conspiracy IS a conspiracy in itself

    No, we know that...

    1. Robertson wasn't a direct threat to anyone.

    2. We also know that the FBI's full tactical SWAT team showed up to launch a pre-dawn tactical raid.

    And you know this because you were there at the planning meeting or because your spirit guide and Ouija board told you that's what happened?

    I only ask because news services are reporting the person concerned pointed a firearm at the FBI officers before they shot him. And since I wasn't there either I'd like to wait for more information on what went down before passing judgement. I would note however that knocking on the door and politely saying 'Police we have a warrant' (vs going in unannounced, wearing tactical gear and shouting Police at the top of your lungs) is no guarantee that the occupants will not reach for a firearm or obey orders to drop it if they do.

    And the media is reporting that because the FBI said that's what happened. If the government said it, it must be true.

    And yet one more time. You know this how exactly? Because every time the FBI executes a warrant someone gets shot? Any facts to back up your (oh so obvious) anti-government biases? To be clear 'If the government said it, it must be true' is a platitude not a statement of truth. Same goes for 'If the government said it, it must be false.' Neither statement has any real meaning.

    They murdered his ass...just like Ruby Ridge....just like Koresh/Waco. They always elevate a non-existent threat...spread the propaganda to the plebs....and then later the truth comes out. Rinse and repeat.

    What is important is to find out how he acted when the FBI showed up. Did he threaten any agents during their visit prior to this.

    This guy was making very specific threats and had the guns to carry them out, the medium is irrelevant. Play stupid games...

    He was armed and pointed a gun at them when then confronted him. In that situation lethal force is pretty much standard practice.

    Utah man killed by FBI pointed a gun at agents before fatal shooting
    Craig Deleeuw Robertson was fatally shot when agents were trying to serve a search warrant at his Provo home.

    And concervatives country wide mourn as his agenda was stopped short.

    Lets face it. Many conservatrives, and pretty much ALL MAGA folk would shout joy to the heavens if this man had been alowed to carry out his attacks.

    Oh? So you were there at the scene and know this is what actually happened ? Do tell us all about it. Yet another example of something who thinks that if they repeat something often it 'must be true', no objectivity or facts required. SO who are you trying to convince, yourself or others?

    How about you take your little fact free rant to the conspiracy forum where it belongs.
