<<. I really feel that Koresh was going insane, or was insane already.>> Well, the fact that he thought he was Jesus Christ says something about his mental state, now doesnt it? But some people seem to think he was some sort of martyr standing up for religious freedom. Needless to say the religious freedom clause does not include liberty to stage your own live-ammo sunday school rendition of Armeggedon.

OK Robert, You said you would back it all up with facts. Where's the proof? <David Koresh bought about $200,000 weapons and ammunition, some of it illegal, in the 17 months prior to the Feb. 28, 1993 raid. We expect our government to protect us from "apocalypse" nuts like him.> David Koresh was never charged with harming anyone. What are you afraid of? his own Sheriff did not consider him a threat. Show the proof of his illegal arms purchases. The FBI/ATF didn't find any. Show the proof of his illegal life threatening activiites that brought on the Nazis from the ATF. <Nonsense. David Koresh was an extremely dangerous nut case, who killed his own children when he and his followers set fire to the place.> Again. Where is your proof?
