Police in Florida warn against riots in wake of verdict

[The Nature Boy 4,224]

Chosing to set up their own set of rules that are illegal in the state they reside in and living by them.

Getting raided for this.

Issues with gun laws.

Extremism, fanaticism, hotheadedness, self-appointed leader of a movement. Etc....

What is that Koresh did ? I forget what crimes were proven he or his followers committed, other than being weird and wanting to be left alone.

Well I think he was technically raided for illegal possession of firearms if I remember correctly. But I could be wrong, as it has been 20 years and my memory is sketchy on that.

Obviously he was committing other illegal activity involving children behind closed doors, as it was later discovered

Nothing was ever discovered or proven in relation to child abuse.

Some were convicted of involuntary manslaughter in the death of the jack booted thugs of the ATF, that attacked and massacred so many innocent kids.

Isn't statutory rape considered child abuse?

Police put out these signs to repel rioters in Sanford. Then realized they were in cursive and are having them reprinted

It was very apparent he fathered children from up to 24 different women, many of them still teenagers. I do see that the legal age of consent at the time was 14, so perhaps he didn't break the law on that - I stand corrected.

Still it's hard for me to be able to sympathize on the side of a 34 year old leader who had regular sex with 14 year olds in the name of religion. All I can feel is disgust over that before I can even begin to even try and justify against any badly executed attempts to arrest the man. If you and others can, so be it.

Not true. They did not both do that.

Links please to where each of them did that.

Kokesh did this also?

Link please. Show me how they are similar in many ways as you said they were.

How does that have anything to do with this topic or the comparison of Kokesh and Koresh?

It was 14 at the time.

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

Funny. Nature Boy is saying Koresh did nothing wrong, not like Kokesh, and Gary is saying the opposite.

It was 14 at the time.

Was the three year difference in age thing in effect back when? Sex with a minor where you are more that three years the senior is statutory rape, even if past the age of consent for that minor?

something is sketchy.

Was Kokesh also raided for illegal possession of automatic weapons? (not firearms...a slight difference...corrected your sketchy memory) It has been 20 years and my memory is not the least bit sketchy about that.

Was kokesh committing other illegal activity behind closed doors with children?

Look, you said the "two are similar in many ways" and have not indicated even ONE way in which they are similar. Keep trying

I am not obligated to agree with NB.

My point is not who did something worng or not...not even the issue. The issue is that someone said Kokesh and Koresh are similar in "many ways" I asked for examples. I did not ask if anyone did anything wrong.

Still waiting.

In Texas? The age of consent has not changed. I lived the first 30 years of my life in Texas.

Along with ignoring the linking of anything relating these two men, (Koresh and Kokesh) you can now refuse to post a link showing the statutory change in the age of consent in Texas. If you are correct it should take about 10 seconds to find it in google.

Otherwise it is just more internet keyboard bullsh*t

Kokesh and Koresh are in no way related in their actions or what they did, your comment was based in ignorance and bias. Just say so. No problem with that.

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

Of course if it was 14, it would make Texas just another backwater state, where sisters have to run faster than their brothers, if they want to maintain their virtue.
