A Predictable Coda to the Waco Biker Gunfight

Local authorities behaved badly from the start. Anyone could see that.

In all likelihood, most voters in McClellan County didn’t think much about the district-attorney race that Abel Reyna ultimately won. But that race mattered. He needlessly charged scores of people with crimes he could not prove beyond a reasonable doubt. And this decision put taxpayers at risk of paying out hundreds of millions in settlements to bikers arguably victimized by state injustices.

Is your local district attorney competent, trustworthy, and committed to respecting civil rights? Pay attention before voting in the next election.

“bikers arguably victimized by state injustices.”

Arguably victimized. That’s a hoot.
