Will not defend the Feds' on this:
1. Could have taken DC in custody while he was in Waco. Did not!
2. Could have place road blocks at routes to the compound and starved them out. Did not!!
3. Could have sent 1 or 2 officers with Search Warrant at the beginning...instead of showing up with 55 armed officers...with guns drawn. Did not!!!
Not a DC fan. He was a mentally ill, sex offender...but, until the Feds showed up, he was not a murderer or (to my knowledge) had not "convincingly" threatened anyone. If left alone, kind of doubt he or anyone at the cpd. would have physically harmed anyone. IMHO - Fed "over reach" and an utterly stupid demo of govt. power.
Reno, Bimbo Clinton the ATF and FBI agents in charge should have been impeached and or fired, if not legally prosecuted.
ETA - Used to believe otherwise...NOT ANYMORE. These agencies no longer have my confidence or respect.
Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne, and myself founded empires; but upon what foundation did we rest the creations of our genius? Upon force! But Jesus Christ founded His upon love; and at this hour millions of men would die for Him. - Napoleon Bonaparte
