Look, I'm no fan of the ATF either, its a worthless organization. But I'm so sick of hearing this utter BS. They were given 51 days to come out. 51 days to send the kids out. 51 F'ing days.
The FBI then tear gassed. It's unclear, at best, who actually started the fires. The FBI and ATF certainly didn't do it on purpose, and bugged recordings inside indicate the Davidians did themselves. This has also been confirmed by investigators after the fact that accelerant was used at all locations where the fires were. Koresh and his followers wanted to be martyrs, and were going to be, no matter what. The child abuse can continue indefinitely, or something can be done about it. People burning alive inside is on the brainwashed followers and Koresh himself, not the government.
When kids are involved, rights are lost.
The accelerant was the chemical used to deliver the CS gas. It was basically an aerosolized combustant. Couple with running a tank into the building and firing gas grenades and flashbangs, its not shocking multiple fires started.
The congressional testimony is great when Schumer says a flashbang isnt a grenade and is quite harmless. Then one of the republicans asks the ATF guy if flashbangs are on the list of destructive devices (they are), then asks since theyre harmless would he pull the pin and hold one in his hand.
