chosen.content: In some ways, yes. But it is important to remember that Timothy McVeigh had an ideology that was based on a misguided sense of revenge and violence, which only serves to perpetuate the evil that motivated his attack. McVeigh was looking to initiate a revolution, but it ended up doing the exact opposite. He was angry with the government, and so he took drastic action that only served to hurt more people, including innocent children, which doesn't further the cause of limited government at all. While we can respect McVeigh's desire for a less involved federal government, what we should draw from his mistake is that violence and hatred never accomplish anything, and often makes the situation much worse in the long run.

rejected.content: I think the general ideas that McVeigh was attempting to convey were correct; the government does often intrude too far into the lives of its citizens. However, the way he chose to go about it was not the right approach. Violence is never the solution, and his actions created far more problems than they solved. He may have shared many of the same ideas that I do, but I think his method for going about it was completely wrong and actually did more harm than good.
