You'd defend Waco too, no doubt. ๐คท๐ผโโ๏ธ
And you would rather the people in charge of Waco were in charge of the police?
Yes there were huge problems with the police response, pooly trained and gung-ho who clearly made it worse but also it was a difficult situation and it's hard to see it resolved by anyone without issue.
Yeah, what of it? In Waco they thought the compound might be stockpiling illegal weapons, which turned out to be true when 4 ATF were gunned down. Then the FBI tried to negotiate for 51 days. That's way better response than what happened in Philly.
