April 19th, 1993 was the last of the 51 day long siege in Waco, TX over 'suspected' small arms violations. A siege that could have been easily avoided. A siege that took the lives of 82 people, 28 of which were children.

A siege begun by an agency absolutely desperate for relevance after absolutely fumbling another disaster shortly before.
A siege where the powers that be felt the need to bring heavily armored vehicles in as a show of force.

A siege that was ultimately viewed as a success, one in which individuals were given medals in private ceremonies and allowed to continue their careers in Federal Law Enforcement for decades.
A siege that was (and is still) openly lied about by the Biden Nominee for ATF Director, who has since bowed out of the public eye, where he claimed the cultists shot down helicopters with 50 caliber rifles during a Reddit AMA.
A siege that is still honored to this day.
Im certainly no fan of the Davidians, much like any cult, however none of them deserved to be made an example of with regards to the autonomy of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives & the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
So when some antigun idiot has the audacity to tell me 'nobody is coming for your guns' I know they're lying to me.
Give to & be members of gunrights organizations, be an active part of the community, put your utter nonsense aside and understand who your actual enemies are.
