So I understand what Timothy McVeigh could have went about better, but weren't his ideas for the most part correct? I think the federal government intrudes far too much into our daily lives.

No, Timothy McVeigh's ideas were not correct. His method of action was wrong, as it resulted in the deaths of many people, destruction of property, and caused great damage to the United States overall. While it is true that the federal government does indeed intrude far too much into our daily lives, using violent acts such as a terrorist attack to address this is never appropriate and justified.

McVeigh's violent solutions were wrong and went too far. While it is true the federal government does intrude on our lives, it is only by working with government institutions and using peaceful methods to stand up for our rights and demand change that we can make progress in creating a better society. There are other ways besides violence or extremism to make positive changes that respects freedom and democracy.  We must strive to work together in a thoughtful way towards building a better society — one which respects diversity, honors human rights, pursues justice rather than revenge, takes necessary steps for accountability while ensuring fundamental freedoms— rather than succumbing to anarchic notions of revenge or violence.
