Well, I'm open to discussion.
How I am wrong?
I am pretty confident tear gas isn't flammable. It's wikipedia entry doesn't say it's flammable; That's a pretty important quality to have so if it was flammable I am pretty confident it would have been mentioned. I've been through the gas chamber in boot camp; I'm pretty confident they had to burn it to activate it. I'm also pretty sure if it was flammable it wouldn't be used by all law enforcement across the US.
They did a year long investigation, and they were pretty confident they had illegal weapons. The warrants the ATF had were valid, and it turns out they were correct, they did have illegal weapons, although once they shot and killed police officers the firearms violations were minor.
This all boils down to how you view our government. If you view our government as over bearing and interfering in your life, then you most likely will want to believe that this raid was not required and that the ATF is liable for the deaths of dozens of innocent people. If you don't spend your life fighting local law enforcement over petty stupid shit, then you see it as a local group who had illegal machine guns and the police went to take care of it.
Clearly we see which side Vendzilla is on.
