Day 38 of the Waco Standoff

April 6, 1993
There was no activity on April 6, except that at 8:00 p.m., Schneider called the negotiators to complain about the music and noise being broadcast over the loudspeakers. He said that if it were not turned off in honor of Passover, he might never speak to them again. The FBI continued broadcasting music throughout the night.

(The Myth: The FBI fired incendiaries into that building to burn them alive!)

[The Truth: The FBI did not fire a single incendiary during the Waco Standoff. The FBI did start doing the right thing here, which was basically to tell Schneider “Aw, fuck you.”]
