The incident will also serve to inform the public about how dangerous these fringe groups actually are, whether it was Koresh or that group of nuts that killed themselves to join up with a comet.

In Waco, it was obvious for months that the ATF and the FBI were honorably trying to rescue the innocent follows of that madman Koresh. Fortunately they were able to free many of the children before Koresh finally went off the deep end.

It is nuts to think that the FBI and ATF, after trying for months to get a peaceful resolution, would then criminally burn the complex down in full view of all of the news crews that were there.

The dangerous and unAmerican patriot and militia groups will always be a threat to our society regardless of WACO.
