Should TX gov Abbott prosecute Bill Clinton for BURNING ALIVE 85 americans at Waco?

Why the Battle Tanks and Helicopter Gunships?

I don't care about any of that.

The issue is why Koresh burned his minions to death?

Why was their a 'siege'?

Barr made a decision to raid the compound, which was at best difficult. Four ATF agents were murdered by the Branch Davidians in that raid. They then took their own children hostage.

If the ATF wanted to arrest him, they could have done it while he jogged.

Barr decided that just arresting Vernon Howell was not good enough. That was a decision made before Clinton came to office.

Vernon Howell is "David Koresh's" real name.

I remember AG Reno as the one that ended the 'negotiations'.

The hostage takers ended negotiations. They killed the children, and spread gasoline around the compound. Gasoline evaporates, so they needed to burn down the compound quickly after that. The decision to go in after that starts seeming clear.

Why the Battle Tanks and Helicopter Gunships?

No helicopter gunships were used in Waco, only UH-60 Black Hawks, and UH-1 Iroquois.

[Walt]

If mcveigh did what he did to avenge waco, then i can understand. The govt had to pay for waco and the "legal" system did nothing to killers like clinton and reno. Of course many people think the OKC bombing was done by the govt to demonize the militia groups. Mcveigh was just a patsy.

McVeigh was more angry about Ruby Ridge.

The Question is: Why did the Government use a 400 man 'Death Squad' to raid an American Family.

(the answer is, the ATF wanted to 'showboat' this to get an increase in their Budget)

Walt. Interesting Narrative.
How about this: ATF too chickenshit to hand David a Subpoena, and too stupid to give it to a Postman to deliver, so use Nixon 'No-Knock' law to raid another American Household.

It was nearly 29 years ago that President Clinton SENT IN TANKS to burn alive the 85 Branch Davidians that he hated so much because they were christians and gun owners and white (mostly). In texas there is no SOL on murder or manslaughter so i say go for it. His crime was TELEVISED and there is no question of his guilt. This would also rid us of hillary.

Maybe they should not have opened fire on the authorities after they presented search warrants. It is like all the police shootings--comply with orders and you won't get hurt.

Oh. Thanks. I thought for a minute there they were Helicopter Gunships. (I'm guessing the Tanks weren't really 'Tanks')

I think the ATF is the Main Culprit here. The first thing they did ... was kill the Dogs that were barking. I guess that's OK in Flash's America.

Good point. Many mass murderers start by killing animals.

The Front door of the Compound was seized as 'Evidence' as to who fired first. Oddly, it has disappeared.
