“Sounds like a massacre.”

Biker fight with guns, knives, and chains at a restaurant at a mall. What pussified thing would you prefer the cops to do other than move in and overwhelm them?
It sounds like only bikers got killed.

. . . witnesses are being questioned on the scene and at the police department . . .

I just hope this doesn't change their CHL policy.

Jeez, good luck trying to accurately reconstruct the sequence of events here. I wonder how many of the dead/wounded were shot by police as they attempted to subdue the action.

“if the biker gangs ever become angry with anyone other than themselves that could be big trouble”

Actually the only reason they thrive is that normal people don’t see them as a big threat. If they ever turn outwards, they are easy pickings for cops because they are professionals at making sure they are loud, identifiable, and easily found.
And on bikes, even a little nudge from a car or pickup and that’s lights out.

All the dead were bikers and no one else injured. Sounds like a win-win!

Not all bikers are bad people. Most I know are former military, Christians and very patriotic Americans. These were likely 1%ers. And to that I say it was a win-win. But not because they were "bikers".

that’s all true ... but wonder how two million bikers would be handled by those d.c. professionals.

“I swear, I didn’t see nuthin’!”

That’s ok sport, cause the twin peaks security cams filmed you, and your little gay biker vest with your name emblazoned on it.....in 1080P

Yesssss,,,, I know. There are surely 2 million hells angel wanna be’s in the USA. And if they ever decided to take over,,,why nobody could stop them. And they’d just beat up the army, and the cops, and regular people would all hide, etc. That about it?

Ive heard biker lore a few times in my life.

How would they be handled? I think the way Waco PD and Texas DPS did it. By shooting some, and then arresting the others who didn’t flee. They aren’t exactly 10 feet tall.
