Didn't Timothy McVeigh claim he bombed the OKC Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in retribution for Waco??
At that time nearly 30 years ago, the federal government and the police agencies had a lot more respect and trust from the American public.
If the police state agencies did something like this today, it could trigger a hot civil war.
The Bundy ranch incident resulted in a standoff.
In order for it to be a “shootout”, the Davidians would have needed to shoot back. I have read that the ATF lied about that - the only ones shooting were ATF. They made a specific lie about the front door “bowing out” due to all the fire coming from inside the building. Except that all the bullet holes on the door are entries, not exits. Of course then the door disappeared from evidence, never to be seen again.
Is the MURDERER of MANY INNOCENT MEN, WOMEN and CHILDREN, Janet Reno, DEAD YET?
IIRC the ‘authorities’ had plenty of opportunity to arrest koresh in town before the “stand-off”.
H->! and H0lder acted stupidly.
The totalitarian face of our government began to emerge.
Traditional method: Obtain a warrant. Arrest guy while he’s out shopping.
New method: Obtain a warrant. Then re-enact the Battle of the Alamo, playing the part of the Mexicans.
We see this new method at the state and local levels as well.

The purpose of the assault at Waco was for the leaders of the Democrat Party to show that they weren’t the least afraid of Christians or an armed populace.
Janet Reno may be more famous for her role in this but what few realize is that Jamie Gorelick — who also framed the Gorelick Wall doctrine that helped lead to 9/11 and was ALSO part of the regulatory team that failed to prevent the housing bubble (how many fiascos is one federal careerist allowed?) — played a prominent role too.
Clinton administration ... the seriousness of the charges don’t apply to Democrats.
Janet Reno, DEAD YET?.......hell, she’ll be a supreme court judge soon.
That plus Ruby Ridge show how much our government elected officials/appointed officials care for us.
Once a person recognizes this fact, all of their atrocities and falsehoods make perfect sense.
All the ATF guys needed to do was follow David Koresh into the grocery store every Tuesday. Instead , they chose to be adrenaline cowboys and killed dozens of children.
With the new radical gun confiscation agenda on the front burner, it’s likely we’ll see that ATF has probably learned nothing from Waco.
+1
Well she oughta be; she’s voted democrat enough times since her death.
On the contrary, they learned they could het away with cold blooded murder.
