Conversation About Waco Massacre At Church Last Night With A…

[Big Green]

So the Bible study I attend on Wednesday evenings has an interesting crowd, from older business owners to undergrad Aggies and everyone in between.

One gentleman who started attending a few weeks ago is a retired BATFE agent. I knew this and had done a very good job of watching my tongue even though he seemed to be a bit of a pompous, know-it-all, jerk. He retired recently after 40 years with them.

Before most folks arrived it was just a few of us and the pastor leading it asked him if he’d seen the current Netflix special on Waco. He replied he had not and I let them both talk for a few minutes and I was told that he was there. I asked how the folks in the agency felt about that disaster and he tried to not call it that, I pressed a little. As he danced around that I said especially after the Ruby Ridge fiasco. He again stated, “well, I’m not sure what you really know about that.” I mentioned a little and said something about Mrs. Weaver being killed. He then said that she shouldn’t have been killed but that “it was a good shot.” I nearly exploded and said murdering her was a good shot? He said the sniper was aiming for someone else so he was not aiming for her which made it a good shot. I said a good sniper wouldn’t have taken that shot and that it was murder. By this point the pastor calmed things down but man oh man. I also through out there something about working for an agency who’s sole purpose is to deprive Americans of freedoms, that also was not well received.

He left pretty quick when we were finished. I’m sure he went to take pictures of all the vehicles and get my name and any video from the church.

Thankfully I don’t have a dog.

He said the sniper was aiming for someone else so he was not aiming for her which made it a good shot.

That makes it a shot that should not have been taken, that a competent sniper wouldn't have taken. He shot her through a door - there was nobody else near her that was visible. Dude's either lying through his teeth or quoting an official narrative.

Good for you! Sounds like you're better at controlling your emotions than I am.

Mrs. Weaver's death was flat out murder. Waco was a murder scene as well. Both were completely unnecessary, but the government wanted to make sure everyone knew they were "in charge".

When Waco occurred, I was working with a guy who had spent most of his life in Philadelphia. I mentioned to him that it reminded me of a mess that had occurred there in 1985 (google "project move philadelphia) when the police dropped bombs on a house and wound up burning down 65 buildings and killing a bunch of people, including kids. He instantly remember the event. I told him that while the bombing was widely reported, I couldn't remember what happened after the inquest. He replied, "All the police and other city groups got together and met behind closed doors until they all agreed that the whole thing was the fault of the people who died. By the way, that's exactly what's going to happen with this thing in Waco." He was 100% right.

ATF agents should neck themselves tbh, hate those bastards.

YOU:"It was self defense officer, he was about to shoot me!"
LEO:"Sure, but you shot your neighbor too!"
YOU:"Well, I was aiming for someone else and I was told that was a good shot."

Good on you for telling him like it is
Ruby Ridge was entrapment that lead to murder and Waco was mass murder. Plain and simple
