Why do they pick Waco when they want to introduce America to new levels of police insanity? What is it about that place that makes “them” say, “okay, we burn another part of the Constitution here”? Is it hexed, or what?
No arrest without probable cause, no search and seizure without probable cause or a warrant, no unlawful detention, speedy trial, etc. etc.?
In this, the 800th year of Magna Carta, justice in the USA looks like whatever the government wants it to look like...
I am not defending any bikers with the following statement. Someone needs to pay and pay dearly for making the above statement to them. Every single individual who answered that way would be terminated and barred from law enforcement for life. And, that would just be the beginning.
The more I read about Waco II, the more it looks like an other gubmint foul (to be polite) up.
I have not seen any reports of Wounded, just killed. THAT in it self makes this the strangest firefight in the history of gun fights.
Usually something like 3 - 5 wounded to each killed. That should translate to somewhere around 35 gunshot wounds that I have never seen reported
It is a shame that you have to preface your post with that. A shame, but understandable.
We have a cabal of halfwits around here who refuse to look even a half inch deep into this thing.
18 wounded iirc
Texas hexes?
When rogue governments overstep their authority and ignore the law, this is inevitable the result. Among some of those arrested may be a murderer or two and may be some of whom are involved with organized criminal activity. But, when the Gestapo also rounds up innocent because they can, our country is out of control.
This couple should stand their ground and take every penny the courts will award them. It will be up to the voters to exact retribution on the local government authorities and the police chief for throwing away taxpayer money so that they can play Nazis.
And for all those law enforcement supporters who defend what happened in Waco, I will just say that I took an oath to defend against this sort of tyranny and will continue to speak out against this sort of behavior. Protection of the innocent trumps the use of government power to deal with criminals.
It seems an irony of destiny that Waco has taken on the name of two infamous government moves.
Something spiritual afoot, without a doubt. We can’t see into the realms into which devils, and angels, and God see. But we can see consequences.
Perhaps part of it is a fallen religiosity... I hate to say that about bible belt, but it is more and more true.
and still no coroner’s report...
Excellence in Posting!
Thanks for joining the conversation.
Lots really doesn’t add up in your article. Sometimes stories don’t add up because they are false.
Got a simple question from the article. Be very interested in your reply.
“After insisting he be given a phone call, Walter said he simply picked Giles’ number at random off a list on the Internet”
If he was not given the opportunity to make a phone call, until finally insisting (insisting usually doesn’t work with Jail Staff) how was he able to get on the internet (before his phone call) to find the lawyer?
Shown a list of attorneys on a screen... wow you are feeble tonight.
I know. I was subjected to such 'half-wit' mentality when I raised objections about how honest citizen's rights appeared to have been trampled on with sheer impunity and absolutely no direct evidence of involvement other than wearing "guilty" clothes at the wrong place at the wrong time. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3298854/posts?page=19#19
Keep pointing that out!
“We have a cabal of halfwits around here who refuse to look even a half inch deep into this thing.”
You are so right. Again thank you for keeping us posted with this on going story.
And you are the first half-wit (see don-o’s Post #6 above) to make an appearance in this thread. I REALLY wish you’d take Senator Cruz’ name out of your “tag” — you (who is most definitely NOT a typical Cruz supporter) are giving Cruz supporters a bad name. Of course, perhaps that’s one of your goals besides trolling.
If Ester reads the Waco threads, she will get her feelings hurt. She will learn that a good many consider her to be a subhuman. That she and her husband deserved what they got, and that they are guilty, guilty, guilty.
When I first heard the police version, I believed it. Then the more I learned about it, the more I realized that the police version was bullshit.
