Thank you. Every April 19 the bureaucrats and their media shills remember Oklahoma City. And every April 19 I remember Waco. It's wrong---evil---to commemorate one without commemorating the other.
The real unspoken story of Waco is the change it typifies in the federal government. Fifty years ago, it was universally accepted in america that the federal government did not have jurisdiction in law enforcement (except in a few, constitutionally enumerated areas such as treason and counterfeiting). The FBI is called the fed bur of INVESTIGATION because, when it was founded, there were cries that it violated the above prohibition of creating a federal police force. Thus, the public was told that the FBI would not have arrest powers and would not carry weapons....it would just investigate crime. Armed policing was the jurisdiction of state/local police and county sheriffs.
Fifty years later, we have more than a federal police force...but essentially a federal, militarized law enforcement agency. We also have a government that recognizes no limits on its authority.
This is nothing less than a coup d'etat against the constitution by the federal government.
Your reply nuber five, this thread sir:
Every year on 4/19 I consider the Minutemen who fought off the Brittish advance along the road to Boston from Concord Bridge... What would they say about the 'other' events which happened on their 'Patriots Day' ?
May God save the Republic!
