It is entirely relevant. Randy Weaver failed to pay a tax, and a soldier shot his wife on orders from the US government.
That quite directly contradicts what is being claimed, that US soldiers won't follow orders to kill US citizens.
If you've some specific beef with the example, there are plenty of others. Unsurprisingly, FBI snipers regularly train for and are expected to manage situations that are 'tense', by the very nature of their job. I was deployed for more than a year as an 8541 in the USMC and I can absolutely assure you that if you shoot people you aren't cleared to shoot you'll be in prison as fast as they can get you there, tense or not.
