"...Many suspect the Cassocks are a front for the Feds.."

That is unintentionally funny!

However, that is new news to my ear.

It is common knowledge that the biker gangs service the cartels. Thus, it is not a conflict over rocker patches; It is over who controls the territory and thus the profits.

Would anyone be surprised if the Feds wanted a cut of the action? I wouldn't.

Deaths of bikers in Waco, Texas shootout leave families reeling.

-—Jacob Rhyne, who lived in Ranger, Texas, had only started riding with the Cossacks in the last six months and didn’t own a gun, Hughes said.

“I cannot see Jake going there if he knew there was going to be trouble,” she said. “Our kids were too important.”

She called the shooting an “ambush” of Cossacks. But investigators are still trying to sort out who killed whom.

Police say the gunfight was sparked by a brawl at a Twin Peaks sports bar that was hosting a meeting of biker group representatives. Members of the Bandidos, one of the nation’s largest biker gangs with a large presence in Texas, confronted members of the Cossacks, a smaller, regional gang. When some started shooting, officers returned fire, striking an undetermined number of bikers.

In addition to Rhyne, the others who died were identified by authorities as Richard Vincent Kirshner Jr., 47; Wayne Lee Campbell, 43; Daniel Raymond Boyett, 44; Charles Wayne Russell, 46; Jesus Delgado Rodriguez, 65; Richard Matthew Jordan II, 31; Manuel Issac Rodriguez, 40; and Matthew Mark Smith, 27.

Rodriguez’ son, Vincent Ramirez, 42, said his father was “in the wrong place at the wrong time.”
The Vietnam veteran was a retired tradesman from New Braunfels, Texas, who had seven children and 19 grandchildren, Ramirez said. Rodriguez was associated with Bandidos but was not an official “patched” member of the club, his son said.

In the patriot movement it is said that if there is a meeting of five members three are on the FBI payroll. Biker culture would be hard to penetrate but not impossible.
