They found the Davidians 'not guilty' of the charge of murder finding that killing those goons was a clearcut case of justifiable homicide under Texas and Federal Law. (See US v. Cruikshank)
Here are the facts.
The Feds didn't have a warrant when they 'raided' the Davidians home.
The Feds fired first. They admitted this at trial.
Now, you don't have to like it, and I don't give a rats ass if you do or not, but anyone coming onto your property firing automatic weapons at you without benefit of a duly constituted warrant is a thug who deserves to meet a rapid and violent death.
Whether or not they have a badge is irrelavent and immaterial. The Supreme Court has already decided the issue, and the Jury in Texas felt the same way I do.
Are they a 'threat to the nation'?
No, ignorant fools like you who don't know the facts of the case are a greater threat to this nation than those poor bastards who roasted to death could ever hope to be.
Deal with it.
