Since when did Breitbart Texas become little better than some blog spewing conspiracy theories?

I can accept that something called Beritbart Texas does not know how to spell Gruene or even Grand Prairie. But for them to assert these were police snipers on the roof is absurd. Pure speculation.

Amazing double standards.

This is supposedly a conservative forum but many have the same ethos as the as the Ferguson and Baltimore riot supporters.

Feral is feral.

Where was this SWAT team in Ferguson, Baltimore, ???? Looks like Texas got all the ones that know how to shoot?

Just like with Sharpton, Obama, or any other leftist progressive pathology, facts mean nothing, only narrative matters.

“Except for the drama and the conspiracy theories that began practically before the thing was over, there has not even yet been posted any informed accounting of how this event unfolded, from the law enforcement side of the story. (That I know of, ie.)”

Which probably reflects the truth that it’s not known how it all unfolded.

Knowing what actually happened and is true, though, is never an encumbrance on those pushing agenda driven narrative.

Now now.
Eating at a restaurant there are going to be steaks getting a salted. That’s like rioting.

Or not.

You are so far behind the curve you are in an alternate reality.

Not from me. These meth-peddling “Bandido” scumbags should all be hanging from tree limbs, as far as I’m concerned. Rapes, dope, killings. They’ve been a violent criminal enterprise here in Texas for decades. To hell with them.

And other bikers that get some kind of vicarious, romanticized kick from hanging out with such predatory criminal outlaws, hoping to bask in their badass vibes, well that’s something I find pretty pathetic.

Yes. Not everyone.

We hear the term feral used a lot here.

This just shows American ferals come in all shapes, colors, sizes and locales.

In Iraq or Afghanistan ANY collateral death is too much but 170 arrested, held for two weeks on ridiculous bond and 9 apparently murdered by police we can accept because there may have been a dozen or so meth dealers or pimps in the mix. Really? I don’t see how any American, conservative or liberal, can support this. Whatever you do don’t go to church because I got a revelation for you. The pews are full, I mean slam full, of sinners!

Just what feral activities warranted an attack, 170 (all present) arrests, one million dollar bond (each), and the seizure of all motorcycles and personal property at the restaurant?

This wasn't some "gang" meeting, it was a Confederation of Clubs and Independents meeting to discuss State/Federal political issues and event schedules between different clubs. Thousands of such meetings are held annually in the US, and the vast majority of those transpire without rioting, looting, or the tender ministrations of multi-jurisdictional task force snipers.

Narrow that brush you are painting with, it is a small percentage of bikers engaged in criminal activity. It is just as likely those who go to political meetings of any stripe have been in the same room with people engaged in criminal activity, and even more so if they are Democrats.

When cops are 100% correct in arresting someone, are they also in the habit of offering freedom in return for a promise that the suspect won't sue for wrongful arrest? I didn't realize that was part of police protocol. I realize "just following orders" and such are police protocol. I didn't know that arresting someone, and then offering them freedom if they promise not to sue for wrongful arrest was correct protocol.

I cant be the only one to notice how intensely high the weirdness quotient in and around Waco has been for a very long time.

I agree. Now, are cops in the habit of arresting someone they know committed a crime, and they have the evidence, but offering them freedom in return for an agreement not to sue for wrongful arrest? A simple yes or no would suffice. Is this proper police protocol?

This applies to your comment: Knowing what actually happened and is true is never an encumbrance on those pushing agenda driven narrative.

Also, you sound exactly like Sharpton or other apologists for the rioters. They’re good kids mainly, just a few bad apples. And anyhow it is the cops who caused it all.

That’s really the narrative you want to push?

That would make sense if they only people they arrested were Banditos. Truth of the matter is that there were a lot of clubs there and the majority of them were just riding clubs with no "outlaw" affiliation.

It looks like someone bad apples started some trouble, then somehow bullets start flying. Who exactly is shooting whom is a really good question. Then the cops arrest everyone near the place and require them to sign a waiver so they can't sue for false arrest? Something stinks.

You agree, but that applies to you.

The idea that there is an agreement over wrongful arrest that must be signed as a condition to be released has no basis in fact.

You are correct It would not be proper police protocol if it were happening.

It is ludicrous in the extreme to believe or push such nonsense that this is the case.

Such an agreement would be unenforceable, as it is illegal.

Anyone in jail who did not sign such an illegal contract with police would be a fool not to sign it, get out and then make the agreement public.

I agree with you some people are either making up stuff or are reading liberal papers.

My son is a Waco police officer and was there or got their when the thugs started shooting.Belive me it was a couple of gangs that started all of this and came out of the building shooting at our police officers.Now our governor would never tell these young men and women to stand down while bullets were coming from the bikers trying to kill the police officers,,

I can also tell you there would be no thugs throwing bricks or harassing our police..The citizens would take care of that..No thug will ever get away with what the thugs did in Baltimore..

TWIN PEAKS wss a biker hang out they go there to sign new bikers up to become members.I have never been in the place but some do just to look big on their motorcycle..I know of two that like to play lets pretend..and wears the bandanas and leather crap..the owner twin peaks was told to keep the bikers away because the police chief had gotten word there was going to be a war among them..So our PD sat across the street and watched what went on..and then the shooting got started and people got wounded and some killed.

There was police,swat,TEXAS RANGERS,FROM ALL OVER THE STATE OF TEXAS THAT CAME HERE TO HELP..
