“OTOH, perhaps biker gangs will need to develop a shoot first policy out of shear self defense in any contact with the police.”

They did shoot first.

I thought Texas was supposed to be some bastion of liberty and freedom that so many people on this forum want to run to.

Bingo...it makes you wonder about the true motivations of the people who are attacking Texas law enforcement and justice system doesn't it?

Scratch the surface paint and you will find some very liberal ideology...

The people all have goals
And we alone am stubborn and lowly
We alone are different from them
And value the nourishing highway

-- Texas requires GJ for felonies. --

Yes, I know. It's in the Texas constitution. My point was to the contention that a GJ is a rubberstamp of prosecutorial desire. The criminal conviction industry is annoyed by having to work through grand juries.

Inspirational poetry for trolls. I like it. Maybe it will change some hearts.

I doubt that heart in particular is going to un-harden, but you never know. Men can learn from their mistakes, and own up to those mistakes with humility and grace, if they really want to be men.

"But resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your brethren who are in the world."
1 Peter 5:9

Not as a matter of policy, not at a “routine” traffic stop, nor on sight, nor against any member of the constabulary.

“Not as a matter of policy, not at a “routine” traffic stop, nor on sight, nor against any member of the constabulary.”

In lieu of other details in your post, I must go back my post you responded to. In the conversation, you stated:

“OTOH, perhaps biker gangs will need to develop a shoot first policy out of shear self defense in any contact with the police.”

Jimmy Graves said that bikers were not that stupid. It would be pure suicide to start shooting at cops as a matter of policy.

So NOW you think bikers are wise?

That's rather selective and flexible in your attitude...

My apologies, I did not mean to imply that you were selective or flexible.

Sorry.

“You know that, how? You must have been there.”

Every biker and others that have voiced on the shooting have said the bikers started shooting first. Also, AP says the video they viewed showed the bikers shooting first.

“You know that, how? You must have been there.”

How about the testimonies of the bikers?

Jimmy Graves, Bandidos officer and TCOC president at the Waco shooting, says they respect the police for doing their job.

(Big John Snyder, Vice president of the Boozefighters at the Waco shooting) “The police were professional, considering the situation they were in. They were professional and doing their job,” he said.

We have also heard from a biker family member that the police probably saved lives at Waco.
