An American Bombing: The Road to April 19th

I was interested in seeing this, based on the title I thought it would intertwine some of the purposeful 4/19 domestic terrorist attacks over the years, offer new insights, possibly connect it to today's domestic terrorism.

But it was really none of that. A lot of retelling of Waco and Ruby Ridge selected some information and withheld other facts; one example was the Branch Davidians in Waco who we know from survivor accounts that Koresh himself incited the fire inside on day 51, while most of them huddled in a safe room. Details like that being glossed over made me feel like this is not a "documentary" at all. A lot of it felt "anti-government", almost glorifying some of the revolutionaries. I guess it can be perceived differently based on where you stand politically... but I do not consider myself political in any way, and this film made me sit up several times saying "is that true?" Or "I don't remember that!" A quick consult on the Google machine refutes some of it, and my good common sense rejected some more of it.

Watch with a grain of salt, or don't bother with it at all.
