re batf fbi revenge in donbc sl ewu netcom com donb netcom com writes anyway here s how i see the waco affair i d be interested in other peoples interpretations koresh and his people were basically minding their own business some weapons violations may have been committed and i wouldn t have disapproved of prosecuting him for those violations however i think the batf was criminal for starting negotiations with a military style assault and for firing into a house where there were children and other noncombatants i don t see they couldn t just leave a token guard on the place and wait the bds out i don t approve of the tear gas approach and if it caused the fire to be started i think the fbi agent responsible should spend years in jail i think the legal term would be negligent homicide however if koresh s response to the tear gas was to kill everyone there i hold him largely responsible for their deaths well it s nice to see someone with a brain a general lack of paranoia and a willingness to put his thoughts in public i tend to agree with all you have said never assume foul motives when stupidity will do jim s corrolary to occam s razor semper fi jammer jim miller texas a m university and i don t speak for uh which is too bad because they could use the help become one with the student billing system be the student billing system power finds its way to those who take a stand stand up ordinary man rik emmet gil moore mike levine triumph
