That goes without question. However, ever since the Jonestown Massacre of 1978 (In South America, but were a colony of San Franciscians.), that issues of Religion in groups such as the Branch Davidians and the FLDS had to be handled in this manner. It is a sad state of affairs, but if memory serves, that there was a security issue. They were stockpiling arsenals of weapons. This is also similar of the FLDS issue, where there were issues of Child abuse and Welfare fraud. Obviously, there were issues of governmental control and interfering with Second Amendment rights. But, there is on the other hand, as seen in Waco, as seen in the Jonestown tragedy, and is being unfolded in the FLDS situation, that there is a definite suppression of liberty. A suppression of liberty and freedom. In Waco, there were allegations of weapons fraud & brutality. In Jonestown, when people wanted to leave the camp in Guyana, they were killed. In the FLDS situation, there are allegations of sexual abuse. I just do not know. The violence of Waco was horrible. I do not know how to confront this if people were being oppressed.

The violence of Waco was horrible. I do not know how to confront this if people were being oppressed.
