WTF are you talking about? Why are you such a drama queen all of the time?
Hey pot - nice to meet you!

No one is fine with Koresh and no one here doubts he harmed kids.
For all the Waco hand-wringing threads, there is barely any mention of the ravenous pedophilia practiced by the cult.

But one can reason that Koresh was a psycho and that the Government messed up and their intervention ultimately lead to over 80 unnecessary deaths. Both can be true. Only you seem to want to make it one or the other.
The govt might have messed up, but the Davidians started the fire.

FYI, the initial raid wasn't even about any allegations concerning kids. That was only put out when the siege went on for weeks and weeks to paint Koresh as even more of a monster. The initial warrant was over modified weapons and them having 1.6 million rounds of ammo.
I'm not sure what that changes. He was a pedophilic monster entrapping molested children - something this board likes to act like it cares about.

Do I want the FBI to be better? Yep. Am I surprised at general incompetence? Nope.

But all the adults in there were to some degree complicit in the pedophilic cult. When the "circumstances" are different and bad actors get worse punishment than they might, the board loves to say shite like "not losing any sleep, no chance they were going to be productive members of society anyway".

Because neither of those government agencies enforces those laws. They were there over semi automatic guns being turned into automatic guns and possible grenades. Using it as propaganda to justify their actions is meaningless. They weren’t there for that. The ATF was there to justify their existence and the FBI followed it up because you can’t screw with federal agents. Neither of those two organizations gave a single shite about those children with the exception of the FBI negotiators that got fricked over every chance the HRT team could do it. Talking about the children is deflecting from what actually happened from this event.

Koresh was a horrible individual when it comes to his followers and their children, everyone acknowledges this, it’s a moot point and has little to do with what went down there. That subject is used to deflect valid criticism of the US government.

Burn the Catholic church to the ground then.

And most of Central America.
