Leaked Report Profiles Military, Police Members of Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs
The Intercept ^ | 5/22/2015 | Jana Winter and Jordan Smith

Posted on 05/23/2015 5:30:48 PM PDT by PapaBear3625

Nuclear power plant technicians, senior military officers, FBI contractors and an employee of “a highly-secretive Department of Defense agency” with a Top Secret clearance. Those are just a few of the more than 100 people with sensitive military and government connections that law enforcement is tracking because they are linked to “outlaw motorcycle gangs.”

A year before the deadly Texas shootout that killed nine people on May 17, a lengthy report by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives detailed the involvement of U.S. military personnel and government employees in outlaw motorcycle gangs, or OMGs. A copy of the report was obtained by The Intercept.

The report lays out, in almost obsessive detail, the extent to which OMG members are represented in nearly every part of the military, and in federal and local government, from police and fire departments to state utility agencies. Specific examples from the report include dozens of Defense Department contractors with Secret or Top Secret clearances; multiple FBI contractors; radiological technicians with security clearances; U.S. Department of Homeland Security employees; Army, Navy and Air Force active-duty personnel, including from the special operations force community; and police officers.

You often are engaged in behavior you accuse others of.

Who are your buddies? Are you in a Soros-based institution? Are you paid to alter or disrupt discussions?

“Are you in a Soros-based institution? “

Alex Jones says that Soros is funding all the anti-cop movements all over the U.S.

Let me think ... who are the anti-cop dudes here?

Trying to keep up here.

I do not doubt but would like the source. I have been tempted to, but due to other pressing obligations have so far restrained myself from, going to the county court site to read all the charges myself. Thanks for the information sources you have posted on this thread and others which I have also seen during my independent search of testimonies, etc. IOW I agree with you TexasGator to the facts you have posted which I have indeed been able to verify from other sources. Some posters who disagree with your premises or evidence sadly resort to character assassination instead. I will ATTEST that I take my information from multiple sources and that ad hominem attacks impress me not in the least.

To others: I would LIKE to see other testimonies from those who were there which contradict what I have elsewhere read. Just bring it on. Please. I mean it.

Ad Hominem attacks (thankfully! you all have been respectful to me, as I have been to you, but other posters have been disparaged in the most insulting ways) are the tactic of the left. I have been appalled by the discourse on this thread. I turn to FR for objective information, and dispassionate analysis. SADLY this is not the case on this thread. The ad hominem attacks substituting for logic, reasoning, evidence, etc. have appalled and saddened me very much.

I seek Truth. I hate the hateful posts from the left that I often see, even on my own facebook of friends! I then defend the rational right, WE do not resort to ad hominem attacks, because with TRUTH on our side, we do not need to! Hateful ad hominem attacks are the tactic of the left.

Guys, we are better than the deluded Left, so just prove it. No more ad hominem attacks. And especially none to me! HA! ; )

No matter how vile they have been to me, I have endeavored to maintain a level of civility here on FR.

“My understanding of RICO is that there must be two actual criminal convictions within ten years for it to apply. “

As I have observed, you tend to do (and be) the things you accuse others of.

+1 points to you being a Soros plant.

I didn’t accuse anyone. It has been well established that Soros wants anarchy in the U.S. and is funding the communists and anarchist in the U.S. to bring down civil order in the U.S. and that part of that movement is to destroy the credibility of the local police forces.

It is very apparent that I am NOT one enforcing Soros’ tactics ....

It is very apparent that others here are. I don’t know if they are getting paid for it or are just totally ignorant of whom they are in bed with.

Hmmm. Go back and read your post carefully.

You say one tends to be what one accuses the other of ...

Then you accuse me of being a Soros plant!

By your logic, you have observed that you are the Soros plant.

” I am not seeing how they can be legitimately charged under RICO.”

I gave you the link to Tx law. Do you see now?

I do. Does not change the fact that 117 of those detained have no convictions. How can they be prosecuted under this statute with no convictions?

If they have intel to prove conspiracy to commit crimes in the future, why didn’t they make arrests on Saturday?

How do you feel about sub-humans? What is to be done with sub-humans?

“How can they be prosecuted under this statute with no convictions?”

The statute requires no previous convictions, nor do you have to do the crime. Conspiracy is adequate for a conviction.

Please define ‘sub-human’. Laz has a definition up but I don’t know if it is the same as yours.
