After White House spokesman Sean Spicer said on Tuesday that no one had used chemical weapons since World War One, I tweeted a reminder that the U.S. government used chemical weapons at Waco. Lots of folks kindly retweeted my line, including Ann Coulter (who has more than a million followers.) Many Twitter users were outraged at that recollection. Following are some of the testy responses –

@JimBovard @AnnCoulter Baseless and not well thought out. CS gas is not deadly and it was the igniter not the gas that started the fire. Closet Dravidian?

@OrangeFiction @JimBovard Idiots. The US didn't use chemical weapons in Waco. There are no black helicopters or detention camps. Idiocy!
