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

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.

Are you arguing that there is no difference between criminal justice and the rules of war?

That is pretty silly, and I’m not wasting my time trying to explain that to you.

Please do no post to me any more - you are deliberately trying to waste my time and obfuscate.

I value the separate functions of police, judge, jury and executioner. Clearly that is so much rubbish to you.

Like this guy

Scum? Are you trying to walk-back your labelling the suspects as sub-human?

BTW - The police involved here are suspects also. Nobody is labelling them.

Good. More people can see your hatred for liberty exposed in the other forums.

Likely federal agents dressed as bikers?

I attended nine consecutive Rolling Thunder Rallies back during the nineties.

The first one I attended went right by the White House and had about 100,000 riders, mostly Vietnam Vets who wanted to call attention to the MIA/POWs who had not yet been accounted for.

The following year the route was changed to circumvent the White House COMPLETELY on orders from the Oval Office. It seemed that the Clinton Administration hated Vietnam Vets and/or Bikers, which was fine, as we hated him too! That year, the bikes numbered over 300,000, and Larry Hagman was our guest speaker.

Each year, the numbers increased and the White House was avoided. After i moved to Florida, it was too far to ride for me, as I was not getting any younger and the White House was once again friendly to Vets.

In the last six years, I think it would be safe to assume that the current occupant of the White House hates Bikers again. And the ranks have swollen to 750,000, which you-know-who must consider EXTREMELY threatening.

Oh...and there were always “One-percenters” at Rolling Thunder, who checked their attitudes at the border in honor of our veterans. I sat in a bar in DC with rival MCs sitting across from each other whose expression of competition was buying rounds for everyone there!

Though I am not excusing the illegal behavior of “one-percenters”, it can’t be denied that the pResident probably considers ALL Bikers, Veterans, and middle Class White Folks to be a threat to his agenda.

After all, we are armed, tough, patriotic, and organized.

YIKES!

Oh...BTW, I am in a ministry that reaches out to this group. I am under no illusions about the subculture, but I also don’t trust the present government-controlled media either.
