This memorial should be paid for by the government since they caused this. They were licensed to own every weapon they had and even if they wanted to arrest Koresh, they could have picked him up away from there. The beginning of the militarization of the police.

As a history buff, I drove by the location on a Saturday afternoon. The gates were closed but it is private property with no trespassing signs posted anyway. It was intetesting to see how far out and the location the compound was at. As mentioned before, I am just a history person and wanted to see first hand the place where so many tragically died.

We visited on a whim driving from Oklahoma to Austin. It was dark and difficult to see but an eerie reminder of that terrible time. We had previously visited the location of the Oklahoma City bombing and after stopping here and reading a little more found more about how the 2 relate to each other, which made the visit more interesting. I recommend a drive by for sure it's worth a quick off the path visit.

The gates are closed and a sign is posted No Trespassing. Able to see just from the road. Too bad we couldn't drive onto the compound.

Religion has been a justification for killing, martyrdom and persecuting people for hundreds of years. This site is a grim reminder of what can go wrong between individuals, groups and governments when intolerance and anger override good judgement. Our visit was a "moment" and a reality check.The site is difficult to find, our GPS led us on a bit of a chase. The open "Gate" and a small pile of debris close to the road are reminders of the tragic event. The area has been reclaimed by man and nature (erases the blood shed there). The location provides a great, panoramic view of Central Texas. There is a small Chapel and several scattered residences on the site. The Memorial Gate was open and somewhat inviting to " come-on-in". We chose not to enter. Visually, the horror and significance of the event is probably minimal to somebody unfamiliar with the event illustrated by the media..... a grain of sand on the "Beach" of humanity. Things need to be remembered, hopefully to prevent them from happening again and then we move on. When will we ever learn?

This location is about 15 minutes from Waco and the Interstate. Finding the location was easy once you find Double Ee Road, just keep driving.This is a very touching memorial site to adults and children who tragically lost there lives. Everything original has been demolished and it is nice to see that someone has done something to leave a lasting memorial.The events here were worldwide news and should not be forgotten. 80 people died here and that is a tragedy.

Regardless of your political or religious beliefs this is the location a lot of people lost their lives. Men, women and children died in a tragic fire that to this day swirls emotion and controversy over how it started. This is nothing I would make a special trip to Waco Texas to see. We were in Waco to see and do other things and just decided to take a ride out. It is a bit tough to find so keep your eyes "peeled".
