I think a good case could be made that members of the executive and judicial branch of the government of Texas violated the rights guaranteed him by the following amendments to the Constitution of the United States:
1st
2nd
4th
8th

Yes. Nine people are dead.
And I, for one, would like to know who killed them.

I'm not sure what you're talking about. When 170 people are arrested all at once in a small town and it's a murder scene then you're going to have nightmarish amounts of paperwork and backlogs and lawyers and courts. I'm failing to see where any of his rights were violated.
And you're the one who made that initial claim. So tell me what rights you think were violated. Don't tell me your opinion and then tell me to go research it myself. Haha.

As to your last point, you arent understanding me. All of these guys were wearing patches at the same time and place.But there were many clubs represented there, many wearing patch that is wholly unconnected to anything nefarious - to include Biker Vets, and and Bikers for Jesus groups. Indiscriminately sweeping up anyone in gypsy leather is quite akin to my point.
If they had been picked up and let go again with some sort of immediacy, I probably wouldn't mind. But that ain't what this was.

Not if there was probable cause to arrest. Which there was, IMHO.

..AND we have a problem with the people who are not guilty, but who were swept up in the arrests, I don't have a problem with that. In a general melee they are going to restore order first. continuing to be held on $1,000,000 bond after 3-4 weeks.
Yes, I do have a problem with this. Something about The Eighth Amendment... which you would think a prosecutor would know.

Small town?
Waco, Texas has a population of about 130,000 people. In my state that’s a decent sized city.
PS - Is it too much to ask to recommend you at least read the 8th amendment to the Constitution on your own or do you want me to post it for you?

Not gonna do it. If you do your own research, you will discover that lawsuits have already defined the violations of rights. Many more to come.

..AND we have a problem with the people who are not guilty, but who were swept up in the arrests, I don't have a problem with that either. Please do not take my comments out of context. The comma placement in my sentence, and my use of the word "but", make my meaning unambiguous.

I wonder if you would shrug it off so easily if it was YOU cooling YOUR heels in the can for better than two weeks on an unreasonable bond. I don't shrug the detention off at all. It's a violation of the Eighth Amendment.
But that is a separate question from the one: "in a violent melee, should everybody be arrested?" Probably so if there's a public safety issue. What is the compelling reason now to continue holding them?
Sorry, but thefactor's "paperwork" excuse won't fly. Frankly, it sounds like something the hard-nosed cop in a bad movie would say to excuse his own criminality.

I've taken a few oaths, and I have fulfilled them all. Call me crazy, but I'm inclined to give the police the benefit of the doubt, for now.
And if I had a nickel for every baseless, frivolous lawsuit filed by arrested persons, I'd be rich. Do I think this guy committed a crime that day? No. Do I think there was PC to arrest at the time? Yup.
