fter watching the series.. I wouldn't say he was "evil". He didn't really force anyone to follow him. Those who did were extremely loyal to him and he did convince some husbands that god told him to have sex with their wife.. But he wasn't forcing people to do anything.
That is how brainwashing works.

The last of the 6 episode mini-series on Paramount plays tonight.
I was 14 when this happened and at the time time, I thought that David Koresh was an evil cult leader who had to be stopped.

The federal government had fricked up a situation in Oregon, where they accidently shot someone's wife, they were trying to arrest so they tried to use this situation to "save face".
What was going on with the Branch-Davidians definitely didn't deserve the response they got from the feds.
I had heard some bad reviews of the Paramount series....claims that it wasn't as factual as it could have been. Before that series premiered, A&E showed a documentary about it that was very good.

You can watch every damn movie, TV show, documentary, etc about what happened at Waco in 1993 and not a single one is 100% factual.

You incorrectly assume that anyone here cares about Waco or Twin Peaks or bikers.
We don't.

And that’s the problem. You’re so shortsighted you fail to see that if the state can go after one group (in this case bikers) just because they don’t like them, then the state can come after anyone. Either we are a nation of laws where all are equal under the law or we’re a two-bit banana republic.

Do you have a link for that? I'd be interested in observing this behavior. Strictly for research purposes, of course.
Edit: frick me. I just saw that Oweo beat me to the punchline. I'm making a drink and going to bed. Today is ruined.

The police could clear a lot of warrants if they stood at the door of Twin Peaks and did background checks on everyone who entered

You've got to take into consideration that many of us are from LA, so being a two-bit banana republic is the status qou.
But seriously, you called this shite from the gitgo. Many posters will refuse to admit that you were right because they prefer fricking with you more than being honest about the situation, but that's how anonymous message boards work. Your post simply defines the problem. The Waco PD and the DA's Office ought to be under investigation for this bullshite.

One of the very first Embedde episodes i listened to was on this shootout LINK Very Interesting.
quote:
The deadly shootout between the Bandidos Motorcycle Club and the Cossacks Motorcycle Club in Waco, Texas, in May 2015 raised questions about the groups involved. At the end of the shootout, 20 people were injured, and seven members of the Cossacks, one member of the Bandidos and one biker not affiliated with either group were dead. Police arrested nearly 200 people on charges of engaging in organized criminal activity. The two biker groups have been around since the 1960s. An indictment filed in U.S. District Court in San Antonio calls the Bandidos "a highly organized criminal organization" and charges three of the group's leaders with "racketeering activity," including murder, drug trafficking and extortion. The Cossacks, the smaller of the two groups, have also been identified by the Texas Department of Public Safety as an "emerging outlaw motorcycle gang." Both groups deny being gangs or being involved in illegal activities. On this episode of Embedded, Kelly McEvers tries to find out what led to the shootout in Waco.
