I’ve seen the bikers in action; back in the day, the 1st turn infield at the Indy 500 was called “the Snake Pit,” and for a reason. It was basically the Wild West, run by the Outlaws. But there were rules. Obviously, you didn’t mess with the bikers. But, you were expected to not mess with others, either.

Once we saw a muscle head bullying a smaller guy. Why, I don’t know. But the Outlaws saw it, went over to the bully’s van and slashed his tires, then beat the crap out of him. It was very rough justice, but it I can’t say it wasn’t deserved.

My anecdotal experience has been that so long as you behave respectfully and don’t give offense, and understand that you are not one of them, you will be OK.

My brother owned a biker apparel store and I helped him out for parties, bike shows, etc. The Hell’s Angels always had a booth near ours and they were always so nice and polite to me. It was always yes ma’am and no ma’am. Same way when they came into the store.

The Cossacks aren't confederation members, and as far as the Bandidos from Dallas were concerned, they hadn't been invited.

Well, duh, no one was invited. Those meetings are open to the public. But that's the meme the msm continues to tout.

Police suspected something was up; they'd installed cameras and stationed about 20 cops around the parking lot. But they stood back, keeping a low profile... The feds had been building a case against the Bandidos unrelated to the Waco shootout

Ding, ding, ding. Total set up with undercover LEO making sure the feds and WPD, etc. had something to start shooting at.

“This is a pilot program by the Fed Gov in mass group arrests under very vague charges. “

Uh, this was a gang war and charges are from the state of Texas.

Right, undercover agents always start shootouts that they will be right in the middle of taking fire from their own backup... that’s just genius level strategy right there!

"The bikers did not initiate the attack, the LEO initiated the attack on the bikers."

Really!

------------------------------------------------------------

In a blink, it started, he said: “Two punches: One from them, one from us.”

A Bandido with a patch identifying him as sergeant-at-arms of the same chapter threw a punch at Richard Matthew Jordan II, 31, known as “Richie,” who was from Pasadena, Tex. Jordan punched the guy back.

“At that point in time, the sergeant in arms shot Richie point-blank,” the Cossack said.

Police said Jordan died of a gunshot wound to the head.

“Then all the Bandidos standing in the parking lot started pulling guns and shooting at us,” he said. “There were maybe 60 or 70 of us in the parking lot. . . . We took off running. We scattered. Three of our guys went down instantly. They caught a couple more that tripped and fell, and Bandidos were shooting at them.”

He said that the second man to die was Daniel Raymond Boyett, 44, known as Diesel, a “road captain” in the Cossacks from Waco. Police said that Boyett died from gunshot wounds to the head.

The third man down was “Dog,” whose real name is Charles Wayne Russell, 46, of Winona. Russell’s cause of death was listed as a gunshot wound to the chest.

“I’ve read that there was at least 3 who were informants or undercover agents within the biker groups at Twin Peaks that day.”

Here is some more info for you:

“witnesses have said that a Waco cop wearing a Cossacks cut was firing shots, then helped make arrests afterward.”

Oh, I didn’t say they weren’t criminals or gangsters, or that they should not be prosecuted for their crimes. But there will be situations where you might have to deal with them. In those situations, it’s best to know the rules. If you want to disregard the rules and take them on, be my guest.
