Flashback: When Democrats Deployed Tanks on American Soil, Americans Got Killed

Democrats, activists and members of the media (but I repeat myself) have reacted hysterically to President Trump’s decision to display a couple M1A1 Abrams tanks and Bradley Fighting Vehicles on the National Mall as part of a Salute to America Fourth of July celebration. They have made comparisons to China and concentration camps, but what they don’t bring up is what Democrats have done when they deployed tanks against Americans.

WACO MASSACRE

I’ll never forget. I called the dallas FBI office and asked the person who answered the phone if they were proud of murdering a hundred men, women, and children.

From what I remember the Feds could’ve taken Koresh into custody the day before when he went to town. Obviously they wanted to make a scene when they went in force later at the compound. I remember seeing an FBI agent being interviewed during a historical show and he was thrilled about killing people. He’s got a special place in hell.

Don't forget this.

[Texan4Life]

Yes, I thought of that while posting the Gateway Pundit article.

Whoa. I was remembering Waco...Too young to remember Detroit. Thanks for that bit of information.

Bonus March 1920s in DC. Believe I read that the cavalry was used against WWI veterans.

1932.

Thanks, neighbor.

The Democrats also sent BLM Rangers and who knows who else armed like military into the Bundy Ranch. There were snipers around the ranch house for days before the standoff on the highway. I have no doubt if that had not received the publicity it did it may well have ended like Waco with the government telling their version of what happened.

No matter how you feel about the Bundy Ranch issues, it was all a civil matter, not criminal until the government went in with a military like invasion.

[Tammy8]

Yes Ruby Ridge was another government over reach for sure.

The Democrats armed the Mexican drug cartels too, which led to the death of a Border Patrol Agent and who knows how many others.

[vortec94]

Yes, that was also a dark day. Army turned loose on unarmed protesters.
