                 WACO: TIME FOR THE MILITIA
 
        Yes, I've put my name on this paper, and I'm proud of it.  
Who am I? Nobody special, just a dime-a-dozen lawyer.  But I know 
the legal "justice" system and our government are corrupt, worse 
than you can ever imagine.  And I know that we are headed toward 
martial law in this country, soon, unless we do something about it now.
 
        It doesn't get much worse than U.S. Army tanks circling the 
front yard of your house, like David Koresh has right now at his home 
in Waco, Texas, for supposed "crimes" the government won't reveal.  It 
isn't a crime in this country to be a religious "whacko" or to own guns 
(yet), but 27 days ago, armed federal agents broke in on David Koresh's 
home, throwing concussion grenades at the door and shooting men, women 
and children.  Ever since, David Koresh and 75 other people have been 
tortured and deprived of all communication, food, and even legal 
assistance, as the FBI and BATF, armed with machine guns, and military 
tanks circle the house.  The media is kept 4 miles away.  The Waco federal 
court has denied every application for assistance, sealed the original 
search warrants, and is even holding arraignments in secret. The only 
story we hear is the story the media gets that comes straight from an 
FBI press briefing each day at 10:30 a.m., period.  But the government 
claims all this is okay because he's a "religious nut" and "was 
stockpiling weapons."
 
        Well, it's not okay -- David Koresh and every other member of the
Branch Davidians is a citizen.  Even a prisoner of war would deserve to be
treated humanely. We simply must take a stand now. There is no other choice,
except to be slaves, living in fear of our own government.
 
    You are probably already a member of the militia1 and even if you
    are not, please JOIN US!
 
        The Unorganized Militia of the United States of America 
[1] will assemble [2], with long arms, vehicles (including tracked 
and armored), aircraft, and any available gear, for inspection for 
fitness and use in a well-regulated militia [3], at 9:00 a.m. on 
Saturday, April 3, 1993, on Northcrest Drive, off I-35, going east 
on Northcrest Drive off the interstate in Waco, Texas.
 
        If you are afraid to go, ask yourself, "Why?  Why should any 
citizen be afraid of his own government?"  Whatever your answer is, 
that is exactly why you should go!  If you really can't go, please 
send money to help others go and to buy equipment for the militia.

... consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the

IF EVERYONE WILL PLEASE BEAR THE COST AND DO THE WORK TO ADVERTISE 
THIS ASSEMBLY IN TWO OR MORE NEWSPAPERS (PICK ANY STATES), MAKE COPIES 
AND PUT THEM OUT IN AT LEAST FIVE LOCATIONS (GUN STORES, 7-11's, 
LICENSE BRANCHES, YOUR OFFICE, GROCERY STORES, PUBLIC BULLETIN 
BOARDS, BBSes, etc.) AND TELL AT LEAST FIVE PEOPLE, WE CAN GET A 
GOOD TURN OUT.  IF YOU CAN AFFORD TO DO MAILINGS, DO MAILINGS.
 
If you think this costs too much now, just do nothing and wait
