re batf fbi revenge in article rwing uucp pat rwing uucp pat myrto writes i am sick dismayed discouraged and ashamed of our administration it looks like the us now has their own little tienamen square the fbi is portraying korash as a psychopath doing a deliberate mass suicide etc possibly possibly not i don t believe that the tear gas used god bless america land of the free past tense well maybe i am overreacting but i see on the tv as i am typing where govt spoksewoman the new attorney general known to be almost rabid about private ownership of guns wants to ban assault guns and just about everything else is saying the fbi had amazing restraint then falls back into the official goverenment line about how the bd were guity of child abuse and were into it in an on going basis and so on am i having a vain hope that an honest investigation will occur on this thing or will it simply be whitewashed under the rug and business as usual will continue to be the order of the day in the new order who will be given the official title of thought police i wonder what a load of crap the bds had absolutely no right to fire upon the batf agents if they didn t know who they were at first then they should have surrendered immediately when they did realize who they were dealing with little groups of loonies do not get to decide just what laws they will obey or disobey or what sorts of warrants are justified like the rest of us they get their say at the voting booth and if their personal wants are not backed by the majority of voters then too bad if they wanted to keep automatic weapons then they could apply for the proper permits if they had a problem with the warrant then they get to argue that in court in no event do they get to establish their own little nation inside our own and pretend that our laws and law enforcement personel have no jurisdiction within their borders you live on us territory you live by us laws period unless you are a congressman sure the situation was handled badly by both the batf and the fbi it would have been all so easy to detain koresh and his core members while they were out in the streets of waco the batf threatened with budget cuts was trying for a propaganda coup and dragging the press along for the big commando style assault is proof of that they should be roasted for both their imcompetance and their mindset on the other hand they did have the legal right to do what they did once the attack was begun they should have pressed on and finished it rather than let an interminable situation like that take root the fbi also used poor judgement in a number of ways but again the laws we voters have approved or the lawmakers who created them gave them the right to do what they did if batf and the fbi are latter day gestapo it is because the voters have allowed them to become that way waco was pure americana militarist mentality religious fanaticism and unadulterated violence all rolled into one experience we get what we pay for or vote for and this was the result of many choices we have made over the years don t blame them blame ourselves we made them we are them
