Perhaps you should check history; it was the FBI that set the buildings on fire. They concealed this until 1999 when it was released that the FBI used pyrotechnic devices that most likely caused the fire.

Clearly you didn't just point out Our Government covers up facts and lies to us. What a interesting concept that would be for the Government to tell the truth. I think a Revolution is needed clearly our Government can't be trusted and Justice and Liberty has been killed by this Government at long time ago.

An internet forum ain't the best place to start an armed insurrection IMO.

I did check history. The actual facts of how the fire started is not known. But we do know that the Davidians refused a lawful order to surrender peacefully so the important decision was theirs.

I enjoyed the weenie roast though. Yum!

Like I said, tell me when and where. I'll bring beach chairs and popcorn.

So, as long as the money was used to kill people, that's OK, but to keep elders from having to eat dogfood, that's a waste of money?
