I can’t say for you guys, but here in Texas its very likely that some majority of local LEOs will refuse to assault non-criminal citizens, both from a moral patriotic stand-point to the reality of the intensity and deadliness of the citizens push-back.
yeah, you're right. Cause if local LEO saw that the feds were going to burn a bunch of women and children to death, they would have stopped it, right?
Then in order to find out what happened the local and state LEO's would have preserved the scene and not allowed the Feds to bulldoze and destroy all the evidence.
They also would have done the autopsies on the children and women to see if they were hit by rounds and killed or just burned/suffocated.
Cause local LEOs stand up and really fight back against the FBI, ATF, and (enter federal agency's SWAT team) when they over reach their jurisdiction.
pffffttt... sure. they are as afraid of armed confrontation as the next guy. They want their pension and their family to be safe. So let me think... will the LEO defend me or defend his pension, paycheck and family...
Gee, that's a tough one but I'm betting I'd be S.O.L. ..... and so would you....
