If you look just below the surface the only ATF agents killed that day were former Bill Clinton "bodyguards"

And allegedly, Bill Bufford killed his own boys either by purpose or negligence.

I believe neither side. Point is that we will never know and anyone who was not there has no knowledge. People that purport to “know” the facts are about as reliable as those that know what happened in Bengahzi.

Nothing to warrant a full raid.

I suppose if we had the front door we could see which direction the bullet holes were going...

but for some reason, the FBI confiscated that.

The proof that the gov’t wanted a violent, genocidally deadly confrontation is in the fact that they could have picked up Koresh during the many times he was outside “the compound”.

They wanted a show of force.

I re-watched the documentary on Waco the other night. What really caught my attention was how different the media situation is now.

Now, with social media (internet), talk radio, and alternative news sources a Waco-type situation would not be a small group of people alone against the world, it might turn into a walking army of like-minded individuals who would show up in droves to support Justice and True Peace.

Once enough people show up (with their protective armament) the stand-off would.... well, I don’t see those ATF/FBI losers coming out of that one alive. And there would be no safe haven once it really touched off. I don’t care how many Bradleys you bring.

The Battle of Athens comes to mind.

“In the last ten years only two incidents resulted in criminal prosecution of police for killing citizens.”

I don’t know where you get your “facts”, but it’s not true. I can think of this one off the top of my head because it’s local. They even made a movie about it. You can argue that involuntary manslaughter and two years in county jail was too light, but it debunks your claim. I suspect it’s not the only one.

"Don’t boo...organize."

Damn right. We in the center-right in this country need to get off our a**es, turn the TV off, put the golf clubs away, and start organizing. Our Republic is at stake, and we seem to be of the "just wait 'til the next election...everything will work out" mindset. Elections only work if they're not rigged, elections are not rigged only if there are motivated people standing watch over the process, and people are only motivated if they turn off that windbag O'Reilly and start doing constructive things!

And even at that The Davidian's were a Class III Firearms Dealer- so Full Auto is NOT an issue here.

Technically, Koresh was not an FFL holder, but he was a "responsible person". The FFL holder was Fatta and he had a type 01 FFL. I don't think they ever had a 03 SOT. I could be wrong though.

“exact” has, ironically, varying degrees of exactness...

But, here’s the deal - they want The People to fear resisting the government, because they government is and intends to act outside of its legitimate authority of consent of the governed.

They want the message to be out there - “don’t fight back against the government, we’ll kill you and everyone you love in the process”.

“I must have been dreaming when I saw the Branch Davidians shooting at the ATF agents when they attempted to execute a search warrant for illegal weapons.”

From the point of the Juries who acquitted ALL surviving members, it was the ATF who acted without reason, or even lawfully - firing first and without cause.

The Branch Davidians were found to be acting properly and in their own defense.

They were on the phone with the local Sheriff the whole time. You should listen to that recording.

Time to start networking, so when a Waco style operation commences, the thugs find themselves being picked off from behind by the militia.

O.K.

There was a valid III at that address, been a while since this mess.

I lived not far away at the time.

I got to go for now but I’ll look into it later.

I’ll get back to Ya.

Thanks

Re: ??:

There is not such thing as a "Class III firearms dealer".

You have type of FFL (mine is 02)...and you pay a special occupational tax (SOT) to make/deal/etc in Title 2 firearms.

I'm an 07 FFL with a Class II SOT.

I get to make Title 2 firearms on an ATF Form 1 or 2, and transfer tax free on a Form 3. If you want to buy my suppressors, you'll file a Form 4. I could be wrong though about the Davidians, they may have had an SOT, but IIRC they were just a type 01 (dealer) ffl.
