Randy Weaver's daughter speaks about the incident: LINK
Basically, she rehashes a lot of what we already know. The FBI killed their dog first. This pissed off her dad, Randy, who told his son to fire back. So he did (no one was hit). From there the stand-off and escalation happened.
Randy himself was a former Special Forces operator and a white separatist. He was one of those apocalyptic people who believed the New World Order was going to form at any time and take over America. A white supremacist group tried to recruit him (a bunch of those guys in Idaho) but he refused to join.
While a bit kooky, he moved out in the middle of nowhere Idaho to be left alone.

This is not exactly how it happened. There was an initial exchange of gunfire because the feds shot the barking dog.
