when the cult members opened fire on the ATF whatever happened to be on their warrent became irrelivent, they were under attack by heavily armed criminals and had to react accordingly,
getting shot in the back while fleeing wasn't an appealing choice

when the cult members opened fire on the ATF whatever happened to be on their warrent became irrelivent, they were under attack by heavily armed criminals and had to react accordingly, Per BATF testimony, they planned to conduct their no-knock concussion-grenade-led raid whether or not they met any resistance whatsoever. I have seen no evidence whatsoever that any Davidian fired a single shot or even picked up a weapon prior to the initiation of the BATF's attack.

While I support the FBI, the way the Clinton Justice Dept. handled Waco was nothing short of criminal. Nothing justifies the slaughter of innocent women and children.
