April 19, 1993 - Fed's Slaughter Citizens in Waco
PBS ^ | 1998 | WGBH/Frontline

Posted on 04/19/2002 7:17:52 PM PDT by ASTM366

Having been attacked by over 100 armed BATF agents on a Sunday morning in late February 1993, the Branch Davidians, a small band of fundamentalist Christians living at a Church commune near Waco, Texas were surrounded. They had been surrounded for 51 days, subjected to psychological warfare techniques and surrounded by federal law enforcement agents who had lost all patience. What the BATF couldn't accomplish, the FBI was going finish. Despite the presence of innocent infants, children, adolescents and women the FBI ordered a military style attack on the buildings of the compound. The rest is history......

That's interesting....you say you work for the "corporate media"

You're not so dilusional that you actually believe that?

Well...You do seem to be a Conspiracy Kook...I guess anything is possible...

You have been here less than one year (Sept. 15, 2001) and you presume to know more than those who have been here for years and have actually researched the issue?

Oh, the good ol' stand-by...

"I've been here longer than you....Neener, neener, neener...Aren't I COOL!!!"

-----------------------------------------

Why don't you present some facts to back up your tirades....

I don't need too...I'm not the one claiming some kind of far-out cover-up and conspiracy. I'm not the kook, the burden is on you.

-----------------------------------------

at least I'd respect you if you had something relevant to say.

I don't care what you do...You and people like you mean nothing to me (And you are a joke to 99.5% of the population)...I don't care if you respect me or not...You're a Tin-Foil Kook, and I am guessing, close to being out of your mind. But, every once in a while I get tired of seeing freaks like you make Republicans, Conservatives and Freepers look like raving lunatics so I speak-up. Deal with it.

-----------------------------------------

As it stands now, you are nothing more than a mindless shill.

Now I'm a "shill"??? Please, tell me how I am profiting or promoting someone's else profit by simply stating my opinion of you clowns and your foolish ideas??

Call me what you will...At least I'm not an embarrassment to those of us who are interested in politics and have a conservative bent.

As I've said many times in this thread already...

You are EXACTLY LIKE the fools who believe Cynthia McKinney. You just vote diferently.

I am no conspiracy theorist. And you have yet to post a fact.

I think you are a Tin-Foil Freak.

Name a suburb of Waco? In what county does it lie?

Who cares? Who cares?

What religion were the great majority of the persons living at the Waco compound?

Who cares?

How many were black, Hispanic, Asian, or White? How many Jews were in the fire on April 19?

Who cares? Who cares? Who cares? Who cares? Who cares?

I am a serious scholar of the Waco events

BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!

CONFIRMED KOOK!!!

Get a life, dude. There is a big, bright, REAL world out there for you to experience! And I guarentee you, not EVERYONE is out to get you.

Please, don't stop posting. I've learned so much from relevant links you've provided. A blistering rebuttal to the conspiracy kooks indeed.

uhh...Since you know NOTHING about Waco, and care less, why is it you are posting on a Waco thread?

Let those of us who DO know, and DO care, go on without your uncivilized incivility and discourtesy, please.

I am well aware that not everybody is out to get me, but YOU certainly are!!

The folks in the gubmnt didn't want it to look like their position was B.S. I still don't understand why the gubmnt was fearful of Koresch and his followers. The feds shot at the koresh people while the fire was burning. As for the investigation stating that the flashes of light were not gun flashes, well if anyone believes that, then they probably believe in the sanctity of catholic priests too. Or that maybe Arafat is A STATESMAN.

JS rebuttals are as similar to scholarship as the noise of a dog barking is to Shakespearian elocution.

I suggest that you two ignorant JBT bootlickers go here.... Alanmo Girl Archives to acquaint yourselves with the facts. You make yourselves look foolish by parroting the fed.gov lies about the massacre.

I bet if you conspiracy FREAKS look long enough, you'll find that Clintoon and Hildebeast contacted the same group in Dallas who killed JFK and had them snuff Koresh... Maybe Vince Forster ordered the attack and that's why he killed himself...or maybe you've read so much crap about this that you wouldn't know reality from a kick in the head.

I just went to your Freeper home page, to maybe get some insight on just what kind of person you are, and lo and behold, look at what I found as one of your bookmark links.......

"How to Win Online Debates"
Cyberspace offers many opportunities for discussing important topics, two of the most common forums being bulletin boards and newsgroups. No matter how tactful and polite you are, if you make a habit of expressing opinions openly (particularly about politics or religion), you will eventually find someone spoiling to argue with you. This is because of a phenomenon described by Jake Kirchner of PC Magazine:

"We've all run into far too many netizens whose sole purpose in life seems to be to cruise from forum to forum, flaming everyone in their paths. . . . Although they're a small minority, these drunks at the Internet bar can drive the average folks right out of a forum or chat room" ("Will Rogers Never Cruised the Net," PC Magazine, 10/8/96, p. 41).

It has been really "enlightening" and fun "debating" you, but I've had enough laughs for a while, but maybe you should get off mommy's computer before she gets home from work.

It really is a shame that there are people like you who think they know everything but don't have enough brains to actually learn about a topic before debating it.

Oh boy, look who's back.....why don't you go learn something before spewing your idiocy.

I'll bet you don't even know that Alamo Girl is a prominent Freeper, who has an incredible archive of information on Waco and other Clinton scandal. You really should check it out.

I expect people to be truthful when they tell me something. I guess I was wrong this time. You are a LIAR, as well as an IDIOT. Buh Bye......

Who cares what you think.... You are a jerk, a cad, a weasel. Your life is a monument to stupidity. You are a stench, a revulsion, a big suck on a sour lemon. You are a bleating foal, a curdled staggering mutant dwarf smeared richly with the effluvia and offal accompanying your alleged birth into this world. An insensate, blinking calf, meaningful to nobody, abandoned by the puke-drooling, giggling beasts who sired you and then killed themselves in recognition of what they had done.

Have a nice life. Come back when you graduate from the third grade, and we'll chat again.

There are several medications available that will help you. Pleas see a mental health professional as soon as possible. I'm really worried about you.

You have refused to post even the tiniest shred of evidence or facts that would substantiate your claims. Why is that? You don't have a leg to stand on.
