Reread the thread and you will find my entire point is that it is hyperbole to accuse the government of using "chemical weapons," when they simply used tear gas.
You know, the same tear gas "chemical weapon" that is used by police departments every day in the United States.
It seems you are confusing the term "chemical weapons" with "weapons of mass destruction".

Tear gas, CS, both are indeed chemical weapons.
What?
I'm not confusing anything.
An earlier poster complained about the government using "chemical weapons" and left it at that.
I said that was hyperbole and pointed out that tear gas is used by law enforcement every day in this country and I find that use of the term "chemical weapons" instead of the term "tear gas" to be hyperbole.
Please read the entire thread.
I am not saying "tear gas" is not technically "chemical weapons."
I NEVER said that.
I just wish people would have been more straightforward and said "the government used tear gas" rather than "the government used chemical weapons."
One of them was 11. She spoke on the special the other night. Yes, he was a statutory rapist. But, being that it was a cult, and the mothers were giving him their daughters, I am sorry but there was no EMERGENCY to shut that down this way.
On the morning of Sunday, February 28, 1993, agents of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) attempted to serve an arrest warrant for Vernon Howell, a/k/a David Koresh, and a search warrant at the Branch Davidian compound near Waco, Texas. The arrest warrant charged Koresh with unlawful possession of a destructive device, in violation of 26 United States Code, section 5845(f).
Prove that wrong.
Every link that tries to prove that false is to some FAKE NEWS website.
My post about that has been buried, but here is what I said in response to that:

"There is a context to it."
That is the exact same thing the Roy Moore defenders said. You know, "well, in Alabama, there is a context to those things."
Nonsense.
Cult or not, raping a child is wrong, and it is unbelievable that anyone in a civilized society would try to put forth ANY defense for the rape of a child.
My post about that has been buried, but here is what I said in response to that:
Some people see having sex with a child as a sin just like if you had sex with an adult you were not married to. They don't get it.
