  Waco Mini-Series on Netflix. Powerful and Scary.

  so we binge-watched the waco mini-series on netflix.. wow, what a powerful and enlightening programme!

  even if you think you know what happened, it gives you extra context to it all.

  it's very well done even if you just want a great drama series, but it's way more than that.. there are of course some dramatization and slight historical inaccuracies for the purpose of story-telling but it was very informative.

  I don't think you can add any "but the good thing ..." to the first part of the sentence. Unless he was butchering women and children

  Reports came out by past Davidian members that he was having sex to whom ever he wanted including, children, teenagers and married woman in the cult.

  This guy was a uncontrolled creep, the investigative assumption to why he didn't want to give himself up and the group to the authorities is because he knew he would be found out to his deplorable actions that he had been doing.

  B. Evidence of Historical Child Sexual and Physical Abuse[edit]

  1. Sexual Abuse[edit]

  Rumors about Koresh's sexual practices with girls persisted for years prior to the ATF raid. Former compound members told stories about Koresh's alleged practice of having sex with girls as young as twelve. Evidence suggested that Koresh had "wives" who were in their mid-teens, that Koresh told detailed and inappropriate sexual stories in front of the children during his Bible study sessions, and that Koresh taught the young girls that it was a privilege for them to become old enough (i.e., reach puberty) to have sex with him. One former compound member described how Koresh would invent theological justifications for his sexual desires, whether they involved having sex with young girls or with other men's adult wives.

  It wouldn't be surprising for the GB heads to hold back this information being that the guy was a top noted righteous member of the organization.
  

  Remember the JWorg said that Jehovah moved the organization out of Brooklyn New York because he foreknew that this virus was coming.
  

  Jah isn't suppose to let that happen.

  Wasn't the the virus and its engaging effects itself responsible for the fear mongering rather than the media ?

  There is no question the media over sold and marketed this situation but this is probably better than having a government muzzle and curtail information to suit their own public image, as what happened in China .

  No it wasn't based upon what was happening in places like Wuhan China and Italy to name a couple.

  There could have been a situation of governments making it law for everyone to wear a mask when doing things from out their homes, but the fact is the virus can transgress through masks by aerosol transmission into people eyes, this is why there were over 60 doctors in Italy who died from treating people with the virus. The original doctor in Wuhan who was trying to alert the Chinese government died and he was wearing a mask treating patients.

  The decision to shut down was calculated by these factual effects relating to transmission.

  It was shame that those innocent woman children were killed in that event but the good thing about this tragedy was David Koresh was killed , he proclaimed that he was chosen by god and therefore had god's holy spirit running through him, (how many times do you hear that ?) so he self empowered himself and took psychological and behavioral control over his followers, which inevitability led to their deaths.

  The other good thing is the ATF and FBI after this event have changed their procedures and protocols in occurring situations like this.

  when they come to your door knocking... the best way to preach back is.... handing them a comic book when they hand you a watchtower magazine..

  Answer = quote Jesus from the bible and tell them "The Truth" that they are preaching a tainted commercialized version of Jesus's gospel new order (sinning apostasy) by supporting the men who run and operate the Watchtower Corporation/JWorg.
  

  This has been a lying and corrupt religoius publishing house and it still is pretty much to this day.

  The fact remains that these shut downs have directly reduced the number of deaths and cases of Covid-19. If they weren't installed the number would have grown exponentially.

  Governments had the choice of letting this happen or letting the economies falter and it will for awhile to be sure.
