IBTG and also in before the equally despicable ‘Ethan Clive Osgoode’ (Valiant defender of the policy of statists slaughtering Americans).

No doubt there’s been gross police misconduct and a major coverup and it will all come out in the wash sooner or later, but this article is a one-sided hit piece. I’ve read numerous accounts of this incident from more legitimate sources like the Waco Trib and other local media outfits, all of which include several accounts by biker eyewitnesses, and they contradict the BS in this article on numerous points.

>>> Wilson: Not a single law-enforcement person lifted a finger to help any of the wounded. And they made it pretty clear that they were going to be violent if we tried to take our guys to the ambulance. Three men were bleeding out before our eyes. If those men were still alive 30, 40 minutes after being shot, they could have been saved. A prospect named Trainer from out of Tarrant County chapter was shot. They zip-tied him and laid him on the ground next to a Bandido they had handcuffed. I noticed him jerk a few times, laying there. We were sitting there, 30 feet from him, and weren’t able to help him. About two hours later, somebody walked over, looked at him, and covered him with a yellow sheet. <<<

Is that murder or negligent homicide? I’m a little fuzzy about officially sanctioned killings by law enforcement officers...

If anyone in Hollywood has any guts, they’ll be making a movie out of this.

I prefer an ending with the corrupt LEO’s, DA’s, and Judges going to jail.

Give some examples and let's see what you're talking about.

Not if a law enforcement officer does it. Now you have to realize that the reason that they handcuff and zip tie every one they look at is because this is how they get their sexual thrill.

I predict tumescence will result as certain FReepers read this.

While the Waco Trib has all the accoutrements of a "more legitimate source" for news, time invested in further reading and application of common sense reveals that indeed, the Waco Trib is as one-sided and biased as Aging Rebel, just in the opposite direction.

In the first 6 to 8 weeks following the incident, I took care to LOOK at the printed letters to the editor, the ones hand-picked by people at the Waco Trib. They were heavily dominated by readers who believe the LEO narrative of nearly 200 big bad gangster bikers vs. hero police. Virtually every one chosen believed law enforcement.

Then I took the time to LOOK at the unfiltered comments of actual readers on the discussion boards. The vast majority of readers clearly smelled a rotten festering rat in law enforcement and the courts, and suspected that a whole lotta innocent law-abiding folks were arrested (and perhaps killed) on false pretense.

It made it pretty obvious to me that the Waco Trib is as biased toward the police narrative as the NYT is biased toward Democrats.

"Now you have to realize that the reason that they handcuff and zip tie every one they look at is because this is how they get their sexual thrill."

Or maybe because securing an area and suspects therein is policing 101?
