“Ms. Bunds also told me that Howell had fathered at least fifteen (15) children with various women and young girls at the compound. Some of the girls who had babies fathered by Howell were as young as 12 years old. She had personally delivered seven (7) of these children.
According to Ms. Bunds, Howell annuls all marriages of couples who join his cult. He then has exclusive sexual access to the women. He also, according to Ms. Bunds, has regular sexual relations with young girls there. The girls’ ages are from eleven (11) years old to adulthood.”

Any more pedophiles you feel the need to advocate for?
Strawman argument. Rule of law should have prevailed. Koresh was innocent until proven guilty, yet was exocuted by Clintoon and Reno, along with many innocent people. The discussion here is not what Koresh did, but how badly our own government reacted. Step out of line with Zero's government and you or I could be next to suffer the same fate . . .
For someone with the name TruthHound the truth seems an elusive thing.
Don’t be a dip.
The CHILDREN didn’t deserve to die. PERIOD. This was a stupid, stupid move on the part of our government. Even if there was no horrible intent behind it — which is up for debate, especially now that Dick Morris just said that Clinton was forced to renominate Reno for AG, or she threatened to “go public about Waco”.
There's a difference in advocating for the creep Koresh and recognizing that the U.S. Government murdered men, women and children (which you feign to defend), investigated itself, and declared its actions just. It was a known fact that Koresh was a regular in town and could have been arrested without incident. Assuming the government story is correct, that the people wanted a showdown (children also?) they could have been starved out. Instead they got massive doses of tear gas which killed them, then they got burned... those who were not hit by the snipers. It was the kind of action that belongs in the Soviet Union, not America. You 'hole.
I don’t think anyone is advocating pedophiles. The government is choosing which pedophiles they want to destroy, the ones who are also anti-government. My mom works in a hospital where underage Mexican girls give birth and the when they call the authorities, they don’t care. “It’s their culture.” This had nothing to do with child rape. The possibility they used SOCOM to do it is extremely frightening.
