The jail there (50 million dollar bond issue) was supposed to be a private venture (for profit). There had been concern about the viability of the facility. After all, there were 177 vacancies, and at $1 million per detainee, they were going to fill them for a while.
Ka-ching!
Seldom does one who privately posts bond get the full amount back, often there are 'fees' assessed against the returned bond, or the person who puts up surety and cash for a bondsman will pay a fee for the service. Either way, Ka-ching!
Of course, having such a well ballyhooed 'criminal biker gang' problem can lead to gobs of anti-gang task force and other Federal funding (need I say, "Ka-Ching!"?)
More toys, more people, task forces, workshops, full jail, promotions, awards, raises, money, money, money...
I might observe that the loss of freedom doesn't begin in the middle of Main Street in broad daylight, but on the darkened back alleys of society, away from the Country Club and Golf Course, along the easily demonized fringes of any culture. Those not understood by most are most easily treated as the cause of Society's evils, and least likely to get full faith and credit under any legal system.
Sadly, the most foul deeds are done in broad daylight by well dressed men with the approval of the society around them.
“More toys, more people, task forces, workshops,”
Yes. The bikers are going to have to work overtime on their ‘toy runs’ and ‘park renovations’ inorder to get people to forget about this one big gang fight.
Gator, like any competent shill or manipulator, seeks to put his opponents on defense, when HE is the one who should be defending his own wacky conspiracy theories, far wackier than the idea that run-amok corrupt trigger-happy militarized cops and tyrannical Feds are happy to mess with the biggest demographic of veteran, pro-Constitution, pro-2nd Amendment, anti-Obama Americans in the country who thunder through DC by the tens of thousands on July 4th and 9-11 with flags fluttering and fists raised in solidarity.
Conspiracies have existed among government authorities and officials since man became civilized enough to form governments. The WACKY thing is to think American government in 2015 is somehow immune.
For Texas Gator to snicker at anyone for having a "conspiracy theory" is like an over-stuffed pincushion to snicker at a cactus for being prickly.
“Sadly, the most foul deeds are done in broad daylight by well dressed men with the approval of the society around them.”
I guess they were well dressed. Most had on there best colors and bikes were polished. But I am not sure that society approves of gun fights at family plazas on Sunday afternoons.
