Waco - anyone watch it?
What do you think, so far?
Where can it be viewed? I heard Spike, but I'm not sure if that is true.

Yeah, Spike-now the Paramount channel. No idea what the source material is for this but it's no documentary that's for sure. Started to watch when I heard about the tragedy in Adams County, don't think I'll continue with it.

Watched, will continue. Curious to see where it goes.

Heard the NPR interview with the lead Negotiator and one of the surviving members. Would be interested in seeing it, but alas we don't have TV.
The Negotiator agreed with the survivor that the tactical elements pooched everything. They insisted on things the negotiation team told them not to do, such as loud music on perimeter aimed at compound. Negotiators told them 1) it doesn't work 2) it's against FBI policy 3)it doesn't help the negotiation process etc. Tactical team kept overriding agreed upon terms between negotiation team and members inside. Essentially, the negotiators and members would take 2 steps forward and the tactical teams would push it all 3 steps back. Eventually, it resulted in the conflagration of the compound.
Apparently the FBI tactical team wanted to be Delta Force in Panama and the Negotiators wanted to do their actual job.

I wonder if they will cut it off after the shooting starts like the other "made for tv" movies were about it. Never showing that they weren't letting anyone out alive. Janet Reno and the Clintons for you.

I forgot about this, thanks for the reminder. I'm definitely going to watch once it hits netflix or sling. Like CavSct1983 we also have no "tv", only stream stuff.
