<< They had opportunity after opportunity to take him into custody as he went out for supplies and never did..This was a Texas Ranger problem... >>

So, the BATF charged in, yanked control away from the Rangers and said, "You guys can't handle this right, we will show you how it's done"!

I would like to know why the BATF didn't send a single Marshall up to the door with a warrant. Was it because they really believed that there was imminent danger within the compound, that the Davidians were about to mount an attack, or was the BATF guilty of abuse of power?

We should find out during the hearings.
