Why is it so radical to ask that a criminal trial be held for those responsible, and all participants, and that the appropriate penalties be meted out if any of those charged are found guilty? Texas is very liberal with the lethal injections, so what's the big deal about having a trial and giving the needle to a dozen or so of the BATF leaders?
You're forgetting that guilt is decided by the DA when he brings the case, not by the jury. After all, if the accused wasn't guilty, he wouldn't have been charged, right? -- What is appropriate for the master is not appropriate| Tom Weinstein for the novice.
