Bench warrants are so benign, common, (and sometimes incorrect) that you or I could have one now, and not know about it for years.The Marshals did not have a proper warrant to be on Weaver's property, and did NOT announce themselves.The Marshals were slinking around, hiding in heavy foliage, and throwing rocks at the Weaver's cabin when the family dog emerged and chased them down.  A 14 yo boy (not Randy Weaver) responded to the perceived threat by firing into the foliage, and killing a Marshal. The boy and the dog were then killed by Marshals.The only person who was truly held responsible for their stupidity that day was the Marshal killed by the boy.</blockquote>
