THAT is a very good point.
Ten, 15 years from now, folks looking back are going to be amazed that this wasn't identified for what it was within the first 48 hours: a calculated and planned arrest technique where a specific demographic of private citizens exercising lawful right of assembly at a very public political meeting, could "legally" be immediately very harshly punished for being there with virtually ZERO consequences for the "police" (read Federal police state) who made the wrongful arrests.
The Waco police, official fall-guys, are perfectly willing to let this go to court -- "We'll get it all sorted out, just be patient. If police were in error, they'll be brought to justice."
But the harsh punishment and virtual destruction of a very specific patriotic demographic of peaceful, law-abiding citizens' livelihoods, reputations, finances, personal and professional lives ALREADY HAPPENED within the first two weeks. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
The MSM and the police have worked overtime to convince gullible people that those arrested were not peaceful, law-abiding citizens, and have succeeded quite well.
WHEN this model/scenario happens again somewhere in America -- and it will -- the "criminals" that "law enforcement experts" and the MSM will "expose" to Americans, may or may not be motorcycle enthusiasts, but they WILL belong to a demographic that is fiercely pro-American, pro-2nd amendment, pro Veteran, independently resourceful and skilled in some area -- shooting, flying, mechanical, etc, -- needed to repel forceful tyranny.
It won't matter HOW many Americans smell a rat -- those skilled individuals will have been instantly very harshly punished simply in the act of being arrested, essentially taken out of action by way of being financially and professionally destroyed ONLY for being at a certain place at a certain time where and when "police" suspect "criminal gang activity."
Lawmen find and catch individual criminals who commit criminal acts.
Soldiers go after an enemy distinguished by insignia.
There were ZERO lawmen at Waco. This was a military operation.

That doesn’t jive with the bikers’ accounts ....
Bikers on the scene commend the police for their actions.
Peter Graves, Bandidos officer and TCOC president at the Waco shooting, says they respect the police for doing their job.

(Big John Snyder, Vice president of the Boozefighters at the Waco shooting) “The police were professional, considering the situation they were in. They were professional and doing their job,” he said.

We have also heard from a biker family member that the police probably saved lives at Waco.
” may or may not be motorcycle enthusiasts”
A better word for it would be gangs.
Per your post #63, agree totally.
Biggest crime outside the “operation” is a complicit MSM
