There's an amazing PBS documentary currently on Netflix featuring a very detailed look at the Ruby Ridge disaster during the 90s.
And for those that don't know, Ruby Ridge was the bungled stand off between the FBI/ATF and Randy Weaver, a barricaded recluse utop a mountain ridge in Idaho. After several days, the standoff resulted in a violent shootout which caused the death several members Weaver's family along with several law enforcement officers.

Some blame the haphazard tactics of the ATF for this results while other blame Randy Weavers insistence on non compliance, even in the face of his own family being threatened.
But what do you think?
