"Bold talk. Perhaps this fellow should familiarize himself with one word. WACO."

Actually, WACO has proven the author of this piece to be right on target. Note that the BATF has NOT tried this kind of crap again, and are STILL catching flak for it.

I am somewhat of the opinion that the WACO incident was a "trail run" to see if the American will to resist HAD been reduced sufficiently so seizure could succeed. Not just yet, I think.

They pulled Waco and Ruby Ridge off successfuly in one sense. To this day the government, including Bush, has held nobody accountable and none of the primary culprits have paid any serious penalty. What put and end to more of it was the OKC bombing which, although it is not acknowleged, was in retaliation for Waco. The presence of unknown day care centers in the government headquarters created a public relations disaster that occluded everything else, including the reason for the bombing.
