"The Waco siege was the siege of a compound belonging to the Branch Davidians, carried out by American federal and Texas state law enforcement, as well as the U.S. military, between February 28 and April 19, 1993. The Branch Davidians were led by David Koresh and were headquartered at Mount Carmel Center ranch in the community of Axtell, Texas, 13 miles (21 kilometers) east-northeast of Waco. Suspecting the group of stockpiling illegal weapons, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) obtained a search warrant for the compound and arrest warrants for Koresh and a select few of the group's members.
The incident began when the ATF attempted to raid the ranch. An intense gun battle erupted, resulting in the deaths of four government agents and six Branch Davidians. Upon the ATF's failure to raid the compound, a siege lasting 51 days was initiated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Eventually, the FBI launched an assault and initiated a tear gas attack in an attempt to force the Branch Davidians out of the ranch. During the attack, a fire caused by Federal agents engulfed Mount Carmel Center. In total, 86 people, 82 of which were innocent died, including David Koresh. "
Daily reminder that you're living in a nightmarish police state.

Waco was an opportunity for Clinton to act out his cherished fantasy of being the American Lenin, destroying churches and mass-murdering the pious with total impunity!
Daily reminder that the massacre at Waco was the murder of the freedom of religion in the United States.

Anybody who professes to be a Christian should perpend the message at Matthew 7:3 ff., Luke 6:41 ff., before calling anyone a "cult". For in America, it is the magic word which annuls religious freedom.
If you are merely an indifferent attendee at a weekly Sunday morning snoozefest, then you don't need religious freedom: You are only a cheap hypocrite who believes in nothing.
If you follow a Zionist-Communist "mainline" church which preaches "social justice"☭, neverforgetfulness over the (((Six Million Holy Lampshades))), and unlimited support for the Jewish squatters in Palestine, then you don't need religious freedom: You follow the Jewnited States' established state religion.
But Yahweh forbid you actually believe in anything which contradicts the least jot of your (((masters'))) edicts! No, really: Yahweh forbids it. If you sufficiently peeve him, then he will show his disapproval with Biblical plagues of bullets, poison gas, and tanks rolling over the ashes of your sacred home.
Every American who sincerely believes in any non-Jewish, non-ZOG-sanctioned religion must immediately recognize the implications of Waco for his own freedom of worship. That could have been your church! All it takes is for the jewspapers to slap you with the "cult" label, and millions of Americans will cheer >>12371446 as you get burned at the stake — whether metaphorically, or with actual fire. Then, after your life is destroyed and/or your whole family is reduced to ashes, some self-righteous sick sack of shit will rationalize your murder just like this:

<the problematic nature of the Waco Cult meant that you could never go far to defend them before someone pointed out they were a wacko cult. Just like I am doing to you now.
If you are an earnest believer in any religion, read those words with a shiver; for however much you may disagree with the Davidians' theology, unless you lie to yourself, you cannot but have the thought, "There but for the grace of God go I."
