Texas is apparently a fascist police state now.

No way, but Waco PD and its county court system are apparently vying for that title.

I may be over-emphasizing the fallout but when the lawyers get through cleaning their financial clock, Waco is going to be the poorest "conservative" city in Texas. When the taxpaying voters and homeowners get the bill, there's going to be hell to pay. And depending on how this ends, a lot of rising political careers just went down the tubes.

It's going to take Waco years to get over this. After the Branch Davidian screwup and now this. Waco's image is less than stellar with Texans who oppose more government and have a distrust of police ant other LEOs. Yes, there are people in Texas who don't trust our LEOs and this incident is not helping to build their trust.

Finally a lot of Texans ride and don't consider all bikers to be like the "animals" portrayed in the Hollywood movies. In fact if you leave bikers alone they can be pussycats, but if you provoke them they can be downright mean. Kinda like the average Texan when you mess with them.

But facist, no way...Chuck Norris wouldn't allow it.

LOL. The bikers’ lawyers are fighting against each other. One says they are going to report the other to the state for unethical practice. The county may also seek sanctions against the lawyers.

One difference between this situation and the Branch Davidian siege in 1993. The Feds ran the operations against the Branch Davidians. The Twin Peaks action was local and state run.
