Too tired to read all 23 (!!!) pages.....but was I dreaming or did I see a report that the PD found weapons hidden all over the place .....like in the flour, chips, etc?? Like 300+ weapons? What's up with that?

There's little doubt in my mind that some innocents are locked up now, swept up in the confusion and doubt on the part of the police there. "Guilt by association", and it may take weeks to sort it all out. Hard to feel a lot of sympathy for them, but it set a disturbing precedent.


Wouldn't you hate to make that call to the wife or the boss? "Umm, I got swept up in a huge gunfight and my bail is a million bucks!"

I think I'd just as soon not call the wife and explain why I was at a meeting run by the Bandidos.

I'd rather just let the judge deal with me

Hell my wife would be terminally pissed if I just ate lunch at Twin Peaks!

What? A leader of the Cossacks said the whole thing was the fault of the Bandidos? That's unbelievable! His words made it in the paper, so you can definitely trust that it is the whole truth.

Yeah... Dude doesn't even know who died. We know two of the killed were not Bandidos, Cossacks, or any of their affiliates. I'm taking this sides word with a gain of salt.

The most important thing I take from that article is that the whole thing started in the parking lot. Regardless of who started it, this story jives with the AP report about the Twin Peaks surveillance video.

You're right. The Internet experts who weren't there decided the police ambushed em all.

Surely I'm not the only one wondering why this is on the OB instead of the General Board?

Because the Outdoors Board ceased to exist a few years ago and morphed into the "I want to shoot a bad guy/pistol/AR Board."

Vote it down if you don't like it. If enough did that we wouldn't have an issue.

I'm glad the thread is here because I want to see discussion on this topic and the OB is pretty much the only board I visit (except the football board during and leading up to football season).

Because cops were involved, and could have done something wrong.

And because, guns.

And because motorcycles are rarely ridden indoors.

Have you seen what the Politics Board has become? This board is perhaps the only one on TexAgs where we seem to still have civil discourse. Ladies and Gentlemen, thank you.

Just like small towns all across Texas. People from the City move to the country for it's quiet charm, then immediately start complaining about how it's not like the place they just left and then they change it for the worse.

Apparently wearing a Harley shirt while at the restaurant next door is "probable cause" for being arrested, charged and imprisoned on a million dollar bond.

Hopefully this is the end of the CoC and folks like this being required to deal with the Bandidos in order to run a MC

The COC itself does a lot of good in and for the motorcycling community. I wouldn't want the COC itself to go away and I don't think it will, although maybe this will lead to a change in the leadership behind it.

If what that guy's attorney says is true about them being denied counsel, Waco and the county are gonna have some 'splainin' to do.

I wouldn't be surprised if the civil suits for all these folks that have likely lost their jobs (or will lose their jobs), and are certainly currently losing income; all the while incurring additional expense, is going to cost Waco and McClennan county in the billions.

Once they are arrested and booked, the bond amount, visitation issues, and seeing counsel is up the county.

Waco PD didn't make the judge put $1,000,000 bond on them and Waco PD can't tell the county not to let them have counsel or visitation. Unless I'm mistaken and Waco PD has their own jail that these guys are still sitting in without being transferred.

No but the county did. They will not end well if Waco/McClennan county broke due process.

Only one out of 170 has bonded out? Are there really that many people that can afford a 20k motorcycle and 40k truck but can't scratch together 100k in a time of serious dire need? I was hoping some of these guys would be out and talking by now.

Having 100k and throwing away 100k are very different animals.

You know I know how it works. My point, which I didn't make clear, is that the Charlie Foxtrot continues to grow. WPD will have 'splainin' to do if they did indeed arrest guys that were eating at an entirely different establishment....besides all the other potential problems with the situation.
