William Cooper Killed By Government Agents

Just for the record, Dinodoc quoted a post that was challenged by others who knew Cooper and this doctor "friend".

The quote I chose never said that the doctor wasn't the friend. I'm also not suprised about the allegations about the doctor's own conduct considering the tenor of the quote I chose.

PS How far down does it take for that thread get interesting? I read the first few posts and they weren't very encouraging.

To everyone: The people involved in militia/anti-government activities by and large are not lunatics. That really is a fallacious stereotype and should be dropped.

Dinodoc -

You're right, I meant the friend of Mr Cooper was not really his friend. According to people who listened to Cooper's radio show (Freepers), they had a falling out a while back.

I'm also not suprised about the allegations about the doctor's own conduct considering the tenor of the quote I chose.

Yeah, this guy might have had it in for Cooper and used the cops to get him. But Cooper made his own bed by threatening the cops in the past. He often played the tough guy type and his mouth appears to have gotten him into this problem. I have to believe the cops would have just walked up and knocked on the door to issue the warrant had he not given them reason to trick him. In prior years, he was on good terms with the local police and firing on them even if they were trying to serve that warrant in a devious manner is outrageous and sad if that is what he really did, and I see no evidence to the contrary. But Cooper had plenty of enemies, even Clinton referred to him as the most dangerous radio broadcaster in the country after the Okla City bombing.

Hehe, quite a ways, I don't fault you for not going further on. Even I hesitated and considered stopping when I got to the post you quoted.

To everyone: The people involved in militia/anti-government activities by and large are not lunatics. That really is a fallacious stereotype and should be dropped.

Well, the point is everyone's anti-government when it comes to government policies they disagree with.
And the left has their share of people who are willing to use violence to change those policies.

Ted -

I suggest doing your homework next time before posting news stories/blurbs

Just to repeat, I read the blurd about him being killed in a confrontation over back taxes in a national publication - "Fate" I believe - and the article from the Az Republic said nothing about the reason for the incident. It wasn't until reading at Free Republic that I found the (alleged, but probably accurate) cause of the incident. Had I come here and posted information I got from the Free Republic forum, you'd probably be chastising me for using such an unreliable source. Btw, I never said you didn't have morals, I may have said you were immoral - slight difference. But you better not post anything without accurate documentation lest you be guilty of my sin, I'll be watching

Your a big man there behind your computer. Why don't you do something instead of just talk? I hear a lot from you but you never do anything. Maybe that is the whole point, you can't do anything but talk.

And the sad thing in this day is: there's a lot of people making good money just talking.

Telemarketers being the low-man on that totem pole.
I think Oprah is up there a ways though...

That's as may be, but Cooper really was a paranoid loon...

this is still coming from someone sitting behind a computer screen.

What a hypocrite!!!

The difference is I never accused you of lying and inspite of your claims, I never accused you of having no morals. You started with the insults, not me.

What a hypocrite!!!

You need a dictionary. Just read the minds of those who write them. Since you can't figure this out, I'll spell it out for you.
Accusing someone of lying over the internet is not the same as mouthing off to people face to face - that is hypocrisy!
And if you think it is hypocrisy for someone to respond to your insults with insults, you're bulb has dimmed far too much to figure out what is or is not hypocrisy - which is undoubtedly why you missed the point of my comment about insulting people while sitting behind a computer.

Whatever you say, Timothy.

Good comeback, is this why you never actually quoted me to support your accusation?

No, it was written by an idiot. But if you are ever in Topeka, send me an email from the local public library and we can arrange a meeting.

Ted -

Some things you LEFT OUT:

After implying I was being deceitful and after I explained that I began this thread based on an article that only provided the information in my first post, you then accused me again of lying:

Face it Berzerker, you were trying to skew the event out of context in your favor

That's twice you accused me of lying you piece of ****. And you still haven't quoted me accusing you of having no morals and certainly cannot quote me insulting you before launching your insults, hypocrite!

[KrazyHorse]

Just what I like to see: libertarians and conservatives squabbling while I'm busy plotting the nationalisation of essential industries...

[Dimorier Maximus]

What a stupid thread.

[Berzerker]

Maximus -

What a stupid thread

Actually I found the debate about government and legalized stealing quite revealing, but thx so much for your attempt to raise the level of discourse

Darn, I hate having to edit such silly spelling mistakes

[Dimorier Maximus]

I like Berzerker.

[Alexander's Horse]

Perhaps the federal agents that shot him were working on behalf of the literary community?

[Ramo]

Pardon my thread-jack...

The federal government has no business and no right in repossessing anyone's home, in my opinion, except in cases of eminent domain in which case the person must receive "just compensation" (5th Amendment).

"Eminent domain" is a good example of the damage the Courts can do to your rights. It became a tool of railroad and canal companies to steal farmers' lands through the gov't.

[Ted Striker]

Not exactly a moral system, but you never claimed to believe in morality.

Having no morals? Never claimed to believe in morality? I see no difference.

Liar! Pants on Fire!!!

Hypocrite!!! Deceiter!!!

Nah nah nah-nah nah!!!



Face it Berzerker you tried to play us up and I called you on it. Hitting the reply button and using direct quotes more than the rest of us doesn't prove your innocence.

Get laid, get in a fight, lift weights, do SOMETHING with all that rage.

[Ted Striker]

p.s.

But hey if you want to support the actions of a murdering extremist, by all means, go for it.

But I like how in your first post you referred to him as an "author." Just like Hitler was a "painter."



Ya caint truss tha gubment!!!
