Funny, I don't remember that part. What I do remember is that they could have arrested Koresh at any point in time in town, but instead they wanted to be intimidating so the rushed the compound. The residents, understandably, fired back. This is why fighting from a fixed location like that is futile, because it will always end as pictured above.
They were so convinced they would be attacked that they drove up and sat in cattle cars without roofs.
And they used the same bullshit novelty "Take a Number" in the shape of a grenade paper weight as their justification for the Davidians having "explosives" that they used against Richard Jewel.
They saw Koresh in a parking lot several days before the massacre and could have peacefully arrested in them
I don't know if they wanted the PR or to teach other rebellious persons a lesson but the whole thing was unnecessary
This fucker took part in the murder of 25 children and two pregnant women because they were illegally modifying weapons and that would present a danger to the community
I hope all the states jump gun law nullification bandwagon makes his life hell
Koresh was also molesting the little girls. CPS had a hell of a time trying to get in there. The ATF was certifiably evil, but so were the branch davidians.
I grew up in the area. These are things everybody knew. CPS had issues with them for years and the Trib wrote articles about it long before the Clinton administration was a thing.
Then why have none of the survivors who got out before shtf keep saying it was all lies? I mean your source is CPS said so when the actual "victims" are saying it was BS excuse used to murder them.
First off, they were not victims. They were criminals. They bought and sold illegal weapons and abused children. They were a doomsday cult, and none of the survivors were ever true believers. They were, however, complicit in the crimes committed there. Why would you expect them to admit what was going on in there?
I know one of the survivors personally. He is a piece of shit. He tried to drag the girl I went to prom with into that place. He preached all their shit to try to lure teenage girls in, but he sang a completely different tune after he crawled out the window and got in front of the TV cameras.
My source is not cps. I don't know how to get you to understand that this cult was operating in my personal circle for nearly a decade before you ever heard of them. Waco is not a big town. Every major news story from Waco in the last 30 years involves someone I know personally.
I've read and watched about everything there is to see about Waco. There are clearly 2 versions. One being pushed to justify mass murder committed by our government. If the safety of the children was why they were there maybe they shouldn't have burned them all alive?
I never said it wasn't a cult. It's just an odd way of saving children and women from abuse. Burning them alive and all on national television. Almost like they were sending a message to other separatist groups. Not a single survivor of the cult even those that were children or young and would have been the abused have claimed or corroborated child rape claims. The initial reason contact was made was over weapon s. But yea you know a guy that knew a guy. All my research trumps what a guy on post board has to say. I watched it live. I've been this rabbit hole.

Guerrilla tactics is the only way. The Vietnamese proved that already.
I think we proved it first a couple hundred years ago
It's just an example that worked.
Indeed.
They were so convinced they would be attacked that they drove up and sat in cattle cars without roofs.

Mostly peaceful
The man is a cold blooded child murderer? WTF?
The ATF stopped and asked the mailman for directions. The mailman knew someone in the compound and called to warn them.
Of course, the entire news media had been tipped off and had their vans set up at the compound by the time the ATF arrived.

There's no evidence of that and the covidians that left before the raid all say the same thing. But yeah, believe our government.

If they shot down two helicopters we would all know about it. What a fucking lying psychopath- Good Lord this is the last guy you want to run the ATF
a guy who murdered 25 kids in order to keep people from having illegal weapons
we know where this is going
