The thing is, about 5 bike gangs met. They weren’t all bad guys.
One was this Honor Bound Ministry (see: http://www.hbmm-national.org/ ), they look like Christian Bikers, Vietnam Vets were there too.
“Other clubs in attendance at the Sunday brunch included the Blackett Arms MC, Gypsy MC, HonorBound Motorcycle Ministry, Renatus MC, Escondidos MC, Sons of the South MC, Los Pirados MC, Leathernecks MC, Vietnam Vets/Legacy Vets MC, In Country MC and the Tornado Motorcycle Club.”

When I was in high school I was having trouble paying for my one bedroom apartment, and had to let a Bandido room with me for a while, I had to kick him out for cowardice.
He was willing to kill, and have his Bandido buddies punish a good guy, but he wasn’t willing to fight the good guy alone, man to man.
I’m still disgusted by him all these years later, they were all pretty much scum, and dangerous as a group.
No, but documents found fast and furious did give guns to US gangs.
I find it difficult to have much sympathy for bikers that are stabbing one another.
Maybe the cops should have politely asked them to stop killing one another. /s
The pull-quote:
“The scuffle became a knife fight and several men were stabbed. When one of the combatants produced a gun the Swat team opened fire with automatic weapons. Multiple sources have told The Aging Rebel that all of the dead were killed by police.”
Now they whine because they got their asses handed to them by the Waco Police.
This has been done before in Texas. That whole “one riot, one Ranger” thing? It comes from a fact that carried a deadly meaning.
The oilfields and their boomtowns were very deadly in the 1920s. Whorehouses, illegal booze, gambling, and murder sometimes got very out of hand.
A Ranger showing up had exactly one way to restore order, and send a strong message to not repeat the BS. You just saw that method in Waco!
These bikers are learning the boomtown lessons. Now if they stop whining and take their medicine, maybe they can improve themselves.
I double spoke, didn’t I.
Bandidos and a competing drug gang massacred?
It’s all good whoever cleansed Waco of that filth.
If the cops got there while it was still going on (rather than after the fact) well, they didn’t ransack anyone’s home, shoot any pets, or take someone’s stuff. I got no problem here.
Really (as I have posted before) the only bad thing about biker gangs having a lethal rumble is that it is too seventies and we don’t want anyone bringing back disco.
I do think that the franchise had no business dropping the license of the guy who runs the joint, since the Bandidos would have either wrecked stuff if asked to leave or sued (as that seems in vogue) so I do have some criticism about the Twin Peaks corporation in this mess.
But overall, a bunch of drug dealers met Jesus and life is better now.
My thoughts EXACTLY.
Yeah the left is desperate to get whites riled up over this and we can count on a few being dumb enough to take the bait.
Well, Texas police going in guns-ablazin’ is actually nothing new. It’s downright tradition, going back through history. Even civilians are known to jump in on the action, from time to time. As a Texan myself, it’s just what I want and just what I expect, from both police and the citizenry.
When Texas starts “standing down” and “giving space” to criminal miscreants, like so much of the rest of this increasingly faggoty country, THEN I’ll start worrying.
We knew this was coming.
We just thought it would be Sharpton in tails. But, the Marx family and media is available in all colors.
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t condone for a second what the cops did. From the way it sounds they were waiting in ambush and opened fire the moment they saw a gun. Cops have many things they can use to diffuse a situation like that without using deadly force. But then again its hard to know what happened without actually being there. We’ll hear the full truth soon I hope.
There is some video and several pictures from the time of the event. The Cops could have killed a lot more if that was their intent.
Here are some images:
By the way, at this link, about half-way down is a photo of what must be the oldest SWAT Team member alive.
Seems a far cry from the modern-day "hold down the trigger and wave it around until the mag is empty" SWAT tactics.
You are right, they should have had especially family men go in there and say, “Hey disband and don’t shoot, my son needs his day”.
Sure that would work.
Or offer them a coupon for a ham sandwich if they left.
I hope somewhere in that process is an attempt to make certain only deserving people get shot.
“real issue should be the massive over-charging, and million dollar bonds for EVERYONE.”
You forgot seizure and selling all their motorcycles. Waco is actually a nice little city. They want them 100% gone.
Ive heard of gang fighting, gang raping,,etc.
This is the first biker “gang whine”.
The charges of organized crime murder is well known in Texas. Where no mercy is given, none should be expected. Banditos are a perfect example of that.
I’m fixated that most Christians have a brain. Christian bikers throwing in with a convention of bikers they don’t know is like shopping for cookies on the wrong side of Chicago. It’s not something you would do.
IF... you were Christian with a brain.

OK you’ve lost me. I have no idea what that comments even means. I’ve got a team of cryptographers working on it now so I’ll need more time to respond to this... Can you tell me what your comment has to do with anything I’ve said?
