Biker arrested in Waco Twin Peaks shooting speaks
KXAN-TV Austin ^ | June 12, 2015

WACO, Texas (NBC) — We are getting a new perspective about what happened the day rival biker gangs shot each other at a Twin Peaks in Waco.

“Me and my other friend had been inside, and we got something to drink, and we came and sat down, and we were looking at menus, and then it happened,” said Kevin Rash. “I mean that quickly, and we scurried inside and started getting employees into the coolers and stuff.”

Rash just got out of jail and is now talking about what he saw that day in Waco. Rash was inside the Twin Peaks restaurant where an argument first started before the shooting moved to the parking lot. Last week, prosecutors described videos of the shooting where members of the Cossacks lined up on the Twin Peaks patio waiting for trouble. Rash says that’s not how it went down.

“There was a few guys hanging out there, but it wasn’t like anybody was lined up waiting for anything,” he said.

Rash says the only lineup was the people who were arrested. He’s one of the 170 taken to jail that day. Rash is a member of the Bogateers, a support club for the Cossacks motorcycle gang involved in the shooting.

Every bike club ... veterans clubs, Jesus clubs, firemens clubs HAVE to be supporters of the ruling club in their area in order to exist. This is just another BS excuse by LE

Have not seen you on the Waco threads. Welcome to the discussion.

Care to share your views on Amendments 1, 4, 8 and 14 of the Constitution?

My understanding is the Bandidos is the only outfit identified by the law as an ongoing criminal enterprise. The others have not be so identified.

I wonder what the legal definition of “support group” is.

Yep, kind of kills the narrative of the independent biker. I’m master of my domain because the Cossacks said I can.

FR is inching ever so slowly down the drain with the proliferation of pro-criminal gang threads and posters defending criminal gangs and their activities.

Pretty much. If you are not a club member you are a civilian. The clubs generally leave civilians alone. However, as a rider you do have to follow proper biker etiquette to stay out of trouble ... even as an independent.
One example is ... don’t pass a patched group of riders.

I haven't seen a single FReeper "defend criminal gangs and their activities."

Do you have an example, or is your post merely a straw man?

There’s a lot of stuff going on in the shadows, some of it grungy, some of it downright ugly. That’s not to say that “our” fuzz always gets it right either.

Agreed with you about God’s glory, and that is why the Lord will chasten from time to time. Utterly hopeless cases will often not be chastened... they will flame right on until they are abruptly swept from the scene.

I cheer for the Jesus bikers, they are the ones pushing the gospel of peace out there.

While I’ve dived into these debates, ultimately some of it has degenerated into Worldlings A versus Worldings B, choose one! And that is a false dichotomy. I don’t want to be dragged down to that level.

Well, since it's obviously not going to be you... we need some 1%ers on our side that will ride into D.C. and start kicking down doors and "taking care of things".

” don’t pass a patched group of riders.”

And this rule is defined as “etiquette”?

I think when we have a situation where both houses are demonstrating a pox, we are foolish to just pick one and cheer for it. That is the crudest kind of tribalism.

We need to be cheering for the Lord, who can remove the poxes.

There is another protocol for a different gang my friend learned the hard way.

Don’t steal a highway patrolman’s hat while he and his buddies is having dinner at a restaurant.

Is it OK with you if I “cheer” for the Constitution?

What happens if someone deigns to pass a patched group of riders?

Ask the God that you talk about... if it were not for the ideals of the divine, we wouldn’t have a constitution worth warm spit.
