It was not a turf war.
No one who was actually there even remotely believes that.
You need to ask why there was suddenly such an insanely heavy local/*federal* police presence at a perfectly legal gathering that happens every month, at the same place.
And right before the massive biker “Rolling Thunder” veteran event this weekend.
Wake up.
Oh for crying out loud....this event was well known by all long â before it gathered. The police had been working to prevent this gathering, both with rival gang members and the restaurant owner before anybody showed at the site...including the police.. They all knew the risk of violence was more then likely and a pretty much given. It’s a public place on a mall site where the chance for public danger would be great if anything esculated as is generally the case when rival gangs meet.
It’s been a turf war for eons....those involved knew this all too well. Doesn’t matter what set it off...they’re thugs and gangs and need to be treated as such.
