And all of this at a political rally...
As a matter of fact, yep, a distinctly POLITICAL open-mic meeting to discuss legislation pertaining to motorcyclists, the same type of COCI gathering typical of those held across the U.S. for more than 20 years perfectly peacefully.
Do you get that, eastexsteve? For more than two decades, these people you so stupidly believe are "criminals" have been gathering all across this fruited plain with ZERO violent incident. How is that possible among hardened criminals such as you so naively and self-gratifyingly believe the folks at Twin Peaks to have been simply because they dress a certain way?
The Confederation of Clubs and Independents (COCI) meeting was open to ANYONE, whether they rode a motorcycle or not. The LEO claim that any group "wasn't welcome, wasn't invited" is POPPYCOCK. It was an open, preannounce public meeting therefore ALL were "invited."
