...do you believe that every crip and blood gang member has an arrest record?

1. We are talking convictions not arrests.

2. No, I don't believe every gang member has a record, but I also don't believe that in a real criminal gang 2/3 of the members don't have records.

3. As far as the Cossacks "posting sentries", every officer and deputy is trained in "situational awareness" and recommends this to the public in dangerous places. But here it becomes evidence of criminal intent.

4. Later, video shows Cossacks looking in their vests and checking their holsters for weapons, Jarrett said. If I look in my vest to see if my underwear is sticking out, is that criminal?

All in all, it is impossible to justify the number of police rounds fired, and refusal to release the videos is suspicious at best.

According to FR all of these bikers are Eagle Scouts and unarmed? Only the cops are the bad guys oppressing the innocent bikers.

My guess is the killing was done by the bikers, but we shall see.

...

I’m going to wait for this to get all sorted out. But there are some here on FR who take any negative accusation against the police to be the absolute truth.

Your tagline whould indicate that you should be interested in the other aspect of this story - beyond police action; that being the matter of mass arrests, excessive bonds on overcharges, probable cause, etc.

Do you know this for a fact? If so, have you contacted the authorities giving names, dates, and the specifics of the offense? If not, why?

By this time they could have video showing the 1975 Mars landing Sheila Jackson Lee was talking about AND Alien Autopsy. Still no coroner’s report...

There should be greater outrage at actual criminal charges, rather than general warrants, directed at the criminal gangs.

Fixed that as well.

What, really, is the purpose of "outrage"?

And the police could end any speculation but like the Baltimore State’s Attorney they don’t. You don’t find that curious?

One thing is clear, there is a good deal of interest here at FreeRepublic in this story. I was shocked to see one thread went nearly 400 posts the other day. These threads attract trolls like honey, too. Yet, no mention in the MSM, nutin’ on Fox news. Crickets. I don’t get it.

The only way the video taints the jury pool is that the video is held inadmissible at trial.

The fact of million dollar bail and similar implication (person is too dangerous to release, for example) also taints the jury pool in the government's favor.

There is plenty of outrage at criminal gangs. When this nation gets to the point that outlaw bikers are our biggest problem we will be dang near utopia. While we are putting resources and lives into biker gangs we got much bigger problems we are doing nothing about. You and others accuse me of being on the side of the outlaw bikers. I got news for you. I have done something I bet you never have. To their face I have threatened to shoot several for what they had done and a man with a temper would have. Of course they were just heavily tattooed wannabes so I live to tell the story. Also, they knew that I was right about it and apologized profusely.

There would be less criticism of the government's action if the government had been a bit more judicious in wielding its legal cudgel.

The Ass. DA’s statement is hyperbolic at least.

There were 9 people killed, 1 was a member of the Bandidos. More people were injured (gunfire? knifings?) but I didn’t hear details or affliations.

So there may be video of Cossacks ATTEMPTING to execute Bandidos or there may be video of Cossacks executing A Bandido, but there is NOT video that clearly shows Cossacks executing Bandidos.

It’s like the 9-11 case where reports said that the hijackers were observed playing a Golden Tee pinball machine at a strip joint. Golden Tee is a video game, not a pinball machine. Words mean things. The DA is erroneous.t hear details or affliations.

So there may be video of Cossacks ATTEMPTING to execute Bandidos or there may be video of Cossacks executing A Bandidos, but there is NOT video that clearly shows Cossacks executing Bandidos.

It

You can post that a million times and it remains nothing more than BULLSHITE.

There has been no report of how many have criminal records.

By the way the LAST thread from any of the biker gang apologists was at 0700. You all riding and protestin today in Waco? Bet not. Likely hiding in shame. Or maybe better yet, FR got a craw full of THUG OUTLAW BIKE GANG supporters.

Outrage at the gangs by starting a shoot out and endangering the lives of other bikers and restaurant patrons.

no criminal gangs, no shoot out, no mass arrests

The Cossacks didn’t care about the safety of the “clean” bikers. They are probably not shedding any tears over their arrests.

I hear that. Based upon a variety of (what later turned out to be demonstrated) falsehoods that have come out of police (and DA?) sources, I’m not going to “suspend disbelief” of the statists’ pronouncements until such time as incontrovertible supporting material (all videos, autopsy reports, forensic reports including medical reports on the wounded, ballistic reports, etc.) items are released. As it stands, all government entities (e.g., Obama’s on-site DOJ/BATF elements, Waco police SWAT team) involved in this are sitting on ALL factual material so tight they likely have all developed very bad hemorrhoids. Everything about this travesty does NOT pass my smell test and the smell grows more rank as time goes on.

Although dozens of those arrested do have criminal records, 117 did not have any convictions listed under their names and birthdates in a database maintained by the Texas Department of Public Safety.
