The whole thing stinks of set-up by the ATF in my opinion. First of all, this was a meeting of clubs as they have in every state, many times a year. Now as a former MC member, I can tell you that even if you have an issue with another club, you don't handle that business in events like this where there are many other clubs attending. Also, keep in mind there were tons of uniformed police and marked vehicles all over the fucking place as well as undercovers on plain view. You don't handle your business when there are cops and ATF all over the place. Second, the official version of events from the Waco PD already changed several times, as they saying there were more than 100 weapons recovered to now less than 50, with them including nail clippers and wallet chains as these weapons. So far I heard only ONE firearm was taken. Third, all 9 victims died from law enforcement bullets with many of them head shots and most likely the two not specified are from the back. How can you see a deadly brawl between dozens of heavily armed bikers not bringing one single death from it? The cops say they were returning fire as a reason to open fire of their own. You mean to tell me the bikers that were fighting with each other and were looking at all these cops and ATF with rifles and shit since their arrival all of a sudden decided to start shooting at the cops? And not a single cop, cop car, civilian cop car, civilians at the restaurant, civilians at the other restaurants, civilians walking by, tree, passing bird or Coca Cola can sitting by the corner got hit by a biker bullet?
This is another attempt by the AFT to ban MC affiliation altogether, much like the already mentioned case with the Mongols in California and the 81 in Canada. By the way, the Mongols are still active in California. I've seen them flying colors here in Florida with teh California rockers. The thing is they can't fly their colors in Cali or they get immediately arrested. In fact, they can't display anything that shows club membership or they get arrested.
I think it would be a mistake by the ATF to do open season on MCs. They can go after one or two clubs but if they try to wipe out clubs it will make them unite like never before against the common enemy, and that would be a really bad thing for both sides.
