Replay. Yeah, them Branch Davidians were a real threat to the state weren't they. Odd how some names keep popping up in these stories huh. Chelsea's dad is mentioned in the piece. But today, we have groups openly calling for an carrying out activities that are a threat and the joke of a doj is like "meh". Clockwise swirl continues unabated.

This is how and when Wesley Clark became prominent in the Clinton World.
He advised Clinton how to avoid Posse Comitatus entanglements by funneling or helping acquire military grade equipment.

Well, they suspected some sort of illegal weapons issue was being undertaken. That was one of the “issues” at hand if I remember right. I also read that Koresh was in town the day or days before and could have easily been arrested without the bloodshed to follow at the church site.

The Democrats were going to teach us a lesson.
“Yeah, you have guns, but they won’t protect you from us.”
Same thing happened in Oregon.
The Democrats always want “to teach you a lesson”.

When it was rumored they had full automatic weapons that was later found to be false. It was based on witness testimony that they “heard” automatic gun fire from the compound.

51-day standoff that resulted in a fire that killed 74 civilians including many childrenLI can only imagine how this would go down if The Trump administration raided a BLM headquarters where the hold-ups were armed to the teeth and focused on violence.

How, when,and why did Waco become a Federal matter? ATF. Nuff said. ATF was close to a budget increase and need a "big show" to warrant an increase in funding. They knew they had a weak case, but could put on a helluva a show for more of those $fedbucks$.
Never trust ATF. NEVER.

If President Trump has issued an order that caused living children to be burned to death - the damn press would still be screaming... but since the President at the time was ‘DEMOCRAT’ they didn’t give a care.

Back then the democrat’s boogie man was militias. Kind of like their neo Nazi/white supremacist push today. That’s why it happened. It fit their fake narrative.
To: rktman
the Branch Davidian church in WacoNo, not in Waco. Outside of Waco in the country. The reporters rented hotel rooms in Waco so they reported the story as Waco.

Not in the center of downtown? Yeah, I remember it being in the country side where access to observing what was actually going on could be easily controlled.

If nothing else we can be pretty sure that Janet Reno is having a pretty hot time right now.

More likely it was Eric Holder, not Janet Reno. Holder was deputy AG and was really running the show at Clinton's [in]Justice Dept.
Reno was just a figurehead. Remember how Hillary insisted on appointing a woman to be AG? Reno was last choice, after Kimba Wood and one other nominee had to withdraw their nominations.

According to Posse Commitatus, the military cannot be used for Law Enforcement.
That’s federal law.
It CAN be used to put down an insurrection. And the folks in Waco were most definitely not in insurrection.
