Waco: The Rules of Engagement claims that FBI sharpshooters fired on, and killed, many Branch Davidians who attempted to flee the flames. Testimony by the few Branch Davidians who did successfully flee the fire supports this claim. Autopsy records indicate that at least 20 Branch Davidians were shot, including 5 children. The Danforth Report concluded that the adults who died of gunshot wounds shot themselves after shooting the children.
as far as wearing Kevlar, do you remember the big shootout in downtown L.A a couple of years ago? i do not think that kids needed to die that day. but i do think Koresh was certifiably insane. he wasn't going peacefully

I don't buy that. You can absolve the Gov of this if you want. They have blood on their hands IMO.
