Seems to me you’re looking for facts that confirm your deeply held beliefs that police are bad. It’s called confirmation bias. But I could be wrong.

Yes. You are wrong.
About that.
Say, FRiend. Did you see my next post to you? Maybe you know where I can find that info?

“I still cant believe there were families with children at a soft t***y bar. Yes, Twin Peaks is a step below Hooters.”
I bet the Waco Twin Peeks was packed on Mother’s Day.
To: Paladin2
In Texas criminals get space. But that space is usually a cell or a plot.

Another difference: the cops shot some of the bikers involved, and no one is going to march or riot because of it.

These guys werent going to riot they only wanted to kill each other.The only ones killed, wounded and arrested were bikers.
It's not like they attacked innocent bystanders, like the Indian owner of a nearby convenience store or a passing truck driver. It doesn't even look like they shot at the cops who were shooting at them.

The Gov spends billions at the NSA, FBI, ETC and didn’t know this was going to happen? What good is all that money doing?
Gee I feel safe from all the jihadis they are letting into our country. Don’t you?

“How many of the Baltimore rioters were arrested? Waco arrested almost 200.”
Comparing Texas to Baltimore is like comparing a throne to a toilet. They do their jobs there.

Difference here is only bikers were killed or wounded so no great loss, in Baltimore many innocent people were injured and had property destroyed.
To: BenLurkin
I'm not privy to that info, anymore that anyone else is. As far as I know, an officer with a pistol stopped two would-be gunmen with rifles. Are you implying that this isn't the case?
As for "robots" I have no idea what that's about.

Big, big differences between Waco and Baltimore:
No rioting, burning, or looting over the arrests even though far more are dead. The mayor did not offer space for those wanting to loot and burn and the DA didn't rush to arrest innocent officers. No instigation, "hate police" messages, or screams of "biker lives matter" by CNN and other media. No presence of professional demonstrators paid to create turmoil (heard some in Baltimore are complaining about not getting paid. Etc.
To: Resolute Conservative
That’s true; and I crassly overlooked that.
To: BenLurkin
I was wondering the same thing. Did the police start the firestorm?
To: thefactor
I’m not implying anything, FRiend. Just looking for information.
Here’s the issue that I’d like to get your help with: early reports were that the attackers were armed with AK-47s with 75 round drum magazines. Some here have said that is not the case and that at least one of them was armed with a 9mm keltec carbine.
Question is — which is it? or was it something entirely different.
Police today use small “robots” — mostly for investigating suspected bombs. Photos at the scene showed one of them on its side and later, it or another appears to have sustained damage to the point of having lost one of its wheels.
I want to know what happened. Thought you have the experience and contacts to find out.

The picture I saw didn’t match any scene I would expect to see at a massive shooting. It reminds me of Newtown Elementary, not Luby’s Cafeteria.

The gangs involved were the Bandidoes, Scimitars, and Cossacks, but now they are saying possibly two other gangs were also there.

Aint nothing more confusing to a baby than being in a topless bar.

Maybe they figure they ‘died and went to heaven’ or were trapped in an enormous feeding station.
If the ‘boy babies’ get excited, they would be deemed normal and if the ‘girl babies’ get excited, the name Chastity may ring a bell.
