The Bikers’ Point of View [Waco]
Texas Monthly ^ | August 26, 2015 | Jeff Winkler

Posted on 08/27/2015 4:47:09 AM PDT by don-o

“Somebody planted the sonuvabitch.”

That was one organizer’s immediate assessment after a bomb threat forced about 75 bikers and supporters to disperse from in front of the McLennan County courthouse Saturday morning. The bikers had organized a memorial for the nine people killed at the Twin Peaks shooting in Waco three months ago, but the gathering was also supposed to serve as something of a rally for the 177 bikers arrested that day. But now, thanks to a suspicious cooler and a suitcase, the group dissolved.

Clint Broden, the lawyer most publicly associated with the case, was scheduled to speak. And from the sounds of it, Broden’s address could’ve been illuminating if he’d had the chance to give it—”I will have a lot to say soon, I have been saving it up,” he promised on the event flyer.

It’s still unclear what happened on May 17. Most of the national attention the shootout between cops and bikers garnered focused on the two clubs involved, the Bandidos and the Cossacks—essentially turning into PR campaigns for both sides, with law enforcement and bikers offering two very different interpretations of biker culture. -

So you did not post 14 and 16?
The subject of this s thread isn’t the ambush of the Waco bikers, and you didn’t say they were gangsters, mafioso, etc?
I already quoted you on that.

Then began the “explanations” and “that isn’t what I said”.

Then you admitted saying it:

Then you claim that post 14 and 16’s content was invented:

It never ends with you. You can’t produce a single quote where I’ve said that they are all guilty, it’s as simple as that.

Pointing to posts where I said other things is not going to cut it. I’ve just about given up hope that you can grasp this simple concept though.

Depends on the meaning of “is”, right?

Nope. Not at all.

If you want to claim I said something, you need to produce a quote where I said that thing. Not one where I said some OTHER thing.

This is very basic stuff, you should not be able to graduate high school without understanding how attribution works.

So you are still going to claim that this thread is not about the Waco biker ambush, the bikers of which you referred to as “gangsters” and “mafioso” whom you all on your own determined and decided without trial in your posts 14 and 16?
Still going to claim you didn’t say that?

Are you really this dumb or are you just pretending?

I’m not the one pretending to NOT have already determined guilt.

I don’t need to pretend that, because I haven’t, and you have utterly failed to produce any quote where I have. Heck, the word “guilt”, or any variation of it doesn’t even appear in the posts you are trying to cite.

Not to mention you still seem confused about my “mafioso” comment, despite the fact that it was explicitly explained to you at the level a child could understand. So I’m left to conclude you really must be dumber than a child, or at least pretending to be so.

Post 14 and 16 still exist in black and white pal.

Certainly they do, and I stand by everything that I said in them. Why don’t you take issue with something I actually said in them, for a change?

SOOooo, this thread being about the Waco ambush on the bikers, WHO would you be referring to in posts 14 and 16?
Hmmm?
Again, words mean something.
Or were you going to claim you were talking about some OTHER group of bikers?

Well, it depends on what part of the posts you are talking about. I certainly wasn’t referring to the bikers when I used the term “mafioso”, I was referring to actual mafiosi, you know, those Italian guys from New York?

I actually already explained that to you, but it went over your head, probably will this time too.

“Well, it depends on what part of the posts you are talking about.”

So it IS the meaning of “Is”.

No, that would be “Thread subject”, “Your post and what you said” and your attempts to wiggle out of the meaning of it in context.
