In any event, it sucks to be caught up in a gunfight. Even if the bikers started fighting, not 177 of them conspired, so quite a few got caught up in a vindictive use of the legal system. Plus there is the vindictive use of return fire.

LOL, right, a huge gap in my posting history, as evident to all.

33 Bikers Fight Gag Order in Waco Biker Shooting

Thirty-three bikers are asking that a gag order imposed in a case connected to a Texas shootout in which nine bikers were killed be lifted.

The bikers filed a “friend of the court” brief Friday in support of the motion filed by an attorney for Matthew Clendennen, the only person among 177 arrested after the shooting who has filed a lawsuit.

Lawyers’ amici brief – DA’s words ‘foul odor’ to deprive 33 of fair trial

Waco – For defendants in the Twin Peaks case, freedom of speech under the provision of Article 1, Section 8 of the Texas Constitution is their only hope.

Attorneys for 33 persons accused of engaging in organized criminal activity following a mass shooting by police, and the arrest of 177 persons at a political meeting to be held at Twin Peaks Restaurant on May 17 said so in a friend of the court brief filed late Friday afternoon, September 25.

The only way for persons accused of first degree conspiracy felony crimes in the wake of police shooting a large number of persons attending a political rally in this city on May 17 is to exercise their right to freedom of speech, a team of lawyers told the highest criminal appeals court in Texas. Their only hope of gaining a favorable disposition to their cases is to be realized by “sanitizing the foul odor of public perception” they claim has been created by police and prosecutors in the public mind.

Even bikers said the police acted responsibly AND probably saved lived by ending the gang fight.

You've got the burden of production of evidence and burden of proof reversed. Many of them say they went there for a meeting, not a rumble.

But, pretty much everything you post shows you to be an idiot.
