this article is trash.

There is blood on their hands, and they know it. They attacked with fully automatic guns and battle dress (helmets, bulletproof gear). With Tanks and “tear” gas. With incendiary flash bangs they knew would set off a big fire. And they watched those children burn.

The ATF started shooting first. The Branch Davidians fired back and killed some ATF agents. If it had gone to trial, there was a good chance a jury might have acquitted the BD’s as acting in self defense.

The Feds could not allow that potential precedent.
