Easy to label them and take away their being American isn't it, so is this what you will support the feds doing in the future maybe ?
Weaver and Koresh were given ample oppurtunities to turn themselves in and face the legal music.
They chose to commit suicide by cop instead. It's too bad they took a few innocent people down with them.
**** them.
Your analogy maybe, even though wrong, because many saw it differently, and so looking back now even strengthens their positions on the wrongful approach in which the feds took in these cases... Waco was secluded and surrounded, they could have easily waited them out, but the feds reputation for not solving an issue fast was at stake, because when you call them in or they come in with their mightiness and arrogance, then bad things begin to happen quickly as a result of. To many cases to look back on and see this now, especially when dealing with the American people over political and personal ideologies in which they might have, wherefore these events could be solved peacefully in most all cases, where as the waiting game just needs to be used in order to do so every time, and not this push to kill due to the arrogant power of the feds or even local governments to put down people who challenge the system over what they feel is just wrong, and this for what may have come over a serious grievance in which they might have, and could easily be solved peacefully if taken that approach. The other thing at stake, is if the feds or locals have something to hide, then it's destroy the evidence, and if this means people also to be destroyed just as well then look out, because it has been done in the past, and this is why more power and technology against the citizens of this nation is a big issue for many.
Just look at how a few on the left are trying to play the Dorner case, where as they are suggesting now that the police used an incendiary device to rid the world of this guy, even though they probably didn't, but the people don't trust the government or the local authorities, so it is understandable why the left is in agreement with the right on such an issue. This agreeing with is placing the President out of sync with the American people on such an issue, wherefore Rand Paul was all of their spokesman on that day.
