In the hunting of Dorner, there was Law Enforcement from several agencies involved (Federal, State, and Local). Law Enforcement shot at innocent citizens driving in vehicles without justification. Law Enforcement burned down a cabin after Dorner shot himself, not even knowing if there were hostages inside.

Einstein, you may not relate the circumstances surrounding the killing of Dorner as a 'Waco type event', but many of us do. We must agree to disagree. No point in arguing the matter endlessly. We've have all made our points.

Let us continue to post possible 'Waco type events' on this thread to see how many occur on our Timeline in these current times.

Einstein, Galileo, I believe that this conversation you're having here should happen in private. Feel free to use the Personal Message feature to continue if you feel the need to.

You are welcome to post messages in this thread, as long as they bring forward the discussion, something the 2 previous comments did not.

We don't know exactly what John meant by "Waco-type events", but we do know that violent altercations between Americans and Law Enforcement are increasing. Violence in the USA is on the rise, i.e. shooting sprees, bombings, etc. With it comes horrific shootouts between Law Enforcement and citizens...just like we have seen today with the Manhunt for the Boston Bombers. Perhaps that is what John was referring to when he warned us to watch for the increase in Waco-type events. I believe that is happening now and has been for the past couple of years.

Our rights are gone :(

Liberty, Regarding the video you posted... during the Manhunt, the residents in Boston and the surrounding suburbs were under NON-MANDITORY request to stay in their homes and where ever else they were at called..."Shelter in place". It was voluntary and the public complied. This request by Law Enforcement was made so the Bomber Suspects could be tracked down and apprehended without harming the public. It was the right thing to do and it worked. They caught he bad guys.

Branch Davidians Waiting on Resurrection of Koresh - And a new religious community sets up at Waco complex site


Branch Davidians Waiting on Resurrection of Koresh


(Newser) – David Koresh died, along with scores of followers, 20 years ago during a federal raid on the Branch Davidians' Waco, Texas, compound—but even after two decades, some survivors believe Koresh will be resurrected, NPR reports. "We survivors of 1993 are looking for David and all those that died either in the shootout or in the fire," says Clive Doyle, who acts as unofficial spokesperson for the group. "We believe that God will resurrect this special group."
Nine of the survivors were convicted on various charges related to the initial raid, but all are now out of federal prison. Paul Fatta, who was imprisoned for almost 13 years on weapons charges, says he still believes and "would like to see some divine intervention, for God to vindicate his people." And on the site of the doomed Waco complex, a new Branch Davidian community has sprung up. "The United States has to fall in order for the One World Order to be set up," says Charles Pace, the leader of the 12-strong community. "Especially if there's war in the Middle East, that's when they're going to see Branch Davidians start scrambling to find out what the truth is, and where they need to be."

Cyrus Teed - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cyrus Reed Teed (October 18, 1839 - December 22, 1908, erroneously Cyrus Tweed) was a U.S. eclectic physician and alchemist turned religious leader and messiah. In 1869, claiming divine inspiration, Dr. Teed took on the name Koresh and proposed a new set of scientific and religious ideas he called Koreshanity, including a unique Hollow Earth theory that posits the Earth and sky exist inside the inner surface of a sphere. In the 1870s, he founded in New York the Koreshan Unity, a commune based around his teachings that moved in 1894 to the small Florida town of Estero. After a peak at 250 residents in 1903–1908, the group went into decline after his death and disappeared in 1961, leaving the Koreshan State Historic Site behind.

As a young physician, Teed was always interested in unconventional experiments, such as alchemy, often involving dangerously high levels of electricity. In the autumn of 1869, during an experiment he was badly shocked, and passed out. During his period of unconsciousness, Teed believed he was visited by a divine spirit who told him that he was the messiah. Inspired, once he awoke Teed vowed to apply his scientific knowledge to "redeem humanity." He promptly changed his first name to "Koresh," the Hebrew word for Cyrus.
He denounced the idea that the Earth revolved around the sun and instead pioneered his own theory of the Universe, known as the Cellular Cosmogony. According to this theory, human beings live on the inside of the planet, not the outside. Gravity thus does not exist, and humans are held in place due to centrifugal force. The sun is a giant battery-operated contraption, and the stars mere refractions of its light.
Teed's ideas, called Koreshanity caught on with others. Koreshanity preached cellular cosmogony, alchemy, reincarnation, immortality, celibacy, communism, and a few other radical ideas. Teed started preaching Koreshanity in the 1870s in New York, forming the Koreshan Unity, later moving to Chicago. Teed's followers formed a commune in Chicago in 1888. Some followers also formed a short-lived community in San Francisco (1891-2). Small church groups existed in other towns.
Eventually, Teed took his followers to a small Florida town named Estero, to form his "New Jerusalem" in 1894. The 'golden age' for this community was 1903-1908, when they had over 250 residents and incorporated Estero. They built extensively, establishing a bakery, printing house (publishing their newspaper and other publications), their "World College of Life", a general store, concrete works, power plant (that supplied power to the surrounding area years before it was available elsewhere in the region) and more. The colony was extensively landscaped with exotic tropical plantings. They tried to run several candidates for county government against the local Democratic Party but were never successful. Teed was involved in an altercation between Fort Myers men and members of the Unity. He was severely pistol whipped by Marshal Sanchez, suffering injuries from which he never recovered, dying two years later in 1908. After his death the group went into decline.
In 1910, a hurricane destroyed his tomb on the southern end of Estero island and washed his coffin out to sea.[1]
The last remaining follower, Hedwig Michel, deeded the colony to the State of Florida in 1961. It is now the Koreshan State Historic Site.
Cyrus Teed's son, Douglas Arthur Teed, was an American Impressionist painter.

I used to live at this place..........
