We were viewing the Academy Award nominated documentary, " Waco, the Rules of Engagement ," 1 called "one of the most disturbing films of our time" by the San Francisco Chronicle. Not our normal Saturday night fare, I had recently received a package of documents; copies of reviews of the film and newspaper articles on behalf of federal prisoner Paul Fatta, a Branch Davidian.

Why at all? What part had he in the Waco incident? Paul's case S Read More Go to Site

Animals (such as Raptor) flying in the air and animals (such as T. Rex) on land are seen preying upon each other.
