Oh, I thought maybe the other Waco cover-up.

Most wounds were from rifle fire (223), were they not?

Not likely anyone but cops were walking around with rifles.

True dat. IBTG, who has been AWOL after running off with tail between legs, along with most of the TG posse, some time ago.

2 may keep a secret only if one is dead.

Still, a bunch of childish A-holes ruining a sunday afternoon in a nice town.

There are conflicting accounts of what happened next. One that hasn’t been reported before describes a man in a yellow full face helmet firing a stainless steel or chrome revolver. The man has never been identified although CNN does possess a photo of a yellow full face helmet sitting in the grass.

I'd be willing to bet that this is a fed.

For anyone who might not have "got" AR's Bonfire of the Vanities quality journalism reference: it a refers to Tom Wolfe's 1987 novel The Bonfire of the Vanities. It's an easy but long read. It's incredible that this book was published in 1987 yet it reflects so much of what we see in 2015.

The stakes are high. There is considerable evidence that local, state and federal law enforcement officials knew of a conflict between the Cossacks and the Bandidos; decided that the Waco Twin Peaks was where that conflict might escalate into something RICO worthy and interesting; encouraged Cossacks to confront Bandidos at the Twin Peaks; surrounded the Twin Peaks with militarized police; set up their cameras; then watched, as in CNN’s memorable phrase, a “parking lot was turned into a raging war zone;” and have been pounding their chests ever since.

Of all the accusations above, the only one that amounts to a hill of beans is the one I highlighted in bold above. If the bikers can show evidence of this one thing, then they have a BIG case against the cops. But, without it, they have little or nothing.

Waco and McLennan County have been frantically searching for somebody to blame for the Twin Peaks Massacre since about an hour after it happened.

That's kind of their job, no?
