For the nefarious and the obnoxious, staying out of TEXAS is the whole idea. Let the word get around that “Don’t Mess With TEXAS” is not a myth.
Gangs with chains, guns and bats might want to head for Baltimore, where the mayor accommodates and will guarantee their space.
The cops should try to quell the violence, yes. But to shoot the bikers as they attempt to run for their lives makes them worse than the bikers.
