A stain that the ATF will never live down. Perfect example of what happens when the pros get lazy. Oh, and to the AP, SCREW YOU. It's not a compound. It's a CHURCH.

A simple knock on the door by the County Sheriff would have been more appropriate.

I pray, when "they" come for me, it is the County Sheriff - I will go peacefully.

If the door is busted down by a SWAT team AND I can get to my weapon, there will be deaths.

I'm reminded of Kingdom of Heaven, when Orlando Bloom's character is wanted for killing a priest. His father, Liam Neson, and his men defend him against a hunting party.

"It's not that they wanted you, it's the way they asked."
