I have known people that ride motorcycles off and on for 50 years.

One guy fell over with his brand new Triumph Bonneville in late 1965, and rubbed his ear off, while damaging his brain.

Another guy got shot dead over a drug theft, around 69-70 while I was in the military, overseas. I still know his wife.

My area called SoCal is home to the Hell’s Angels, Mongols, Hessians (now defunct?), and probably others.

Today mostly in connection with my local 12 step meeting hall, I know people who ride. Affiliations and/or mutual affinities include Recovery, Christian, Veteran, etc. I understand that.

Addicts, alcoholics, criminals find new lives after leading troubled ones. I get that.

The one and only thing I do not get is excusing people who are STILL in the midst of acting badly.

It is possible to be in a Christian or veteran club, and be naïve enough to get caught in the crossfire, if you ride alongside outlaws.

It is NOT possible to be an active member of the outlaw clubs, and not know about the violence, or be responsible if it gets violent.

I personally cut the Waco law enforcement a lot of slack, if they went out that day and did their best.

They are not the reason for what went down that day.

It appears the Bandidos suckered the Cossacks and lured them. It looks like more Cossacks got killed, because the first shots fired were by Bandidos killing Cossacks.

I wouldn’t expect law enforcement and judiciary to be able to sort it all out, overnight. I would expect them to release innocent people, once they have completed their investigations thoroughly.

“It appears the Bandidos suckered the Cossacks and lured them. It looks like more Cossacks got killed, because the first shots fired were by Bandidos killing Cossacks.”

Just listened to this dude from infowars.com

Says Soros is fueling all these anti-cop demonstrations in Ferguson, etal. Doesn’t even realize that he is implying that the anti-police dudes with regard to Waco!

Also says that it had to be cop sharpshooters since the bikers can’t shoot that well.

He says even sharpshooters can’t shoot that good if it is pandemonium but then goes on to say that maybe the biker got the first shot but then the sharpshooters took out the bikers in the pandemonium.

It would be funny if it wasn’t such a serious affair.
