A 13-year veteran with the Waco Fire Department was fired this week after he was arrested on a weapons charge in ***May*** and officials learned he is a member of the Bandidos motorcycle gang who was shot last year in a bar fight between rival biker groups.
Waco Fire Chief John Johnston fired — or indefinitely suspended — firefighter Bill Dudley for what the chief listed as a multitude of violations of state law and city policies, including “unlawfully carrying a weapon while being a member of an outlaw gang.”
“unlawfully carrying a weapon while being a member of an outlaw gang.”

Was that determined in a court, or deemed so by a bureaucrap?
It is one thing to unlawfully carry a weapon. (without concealed carry permit) It is quite another to base the illegality upon membership in an “outlaw gang”.
Headshake.
