Did people die, or not?

The Wounded Knee Massacre (officially Battle of Wounded Knee) occurred on December 29, 1890,[5] near Wounded Knee Creek on the Lakota Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in the U.S. state of South Dakota. On the day before, a detachment of the U.S. 7th Cavalry Regiment commanded by Major Samuel M. Whitside intercepted Spotted Elk’s band of Miniconjou Lakota and 38 Hunkpapa Lakota near Porcupine Butte and escorted them five miles westward (8 km) to Wounded Knee Creek, where they made camp.

The remainder of the 7th Cavalry Regiment arrived, led by Colonel James W. Forsyth and surrounded the encampment supported by four Hotchkiss mountain guns.[6]

On the morning of December 29, the troops went into the camp to disarm the Lakota. One version of events claims that during the process of disarming the Lakota, a deaf tribesman named Black Coyote was reluctant to give up his rifle, claiming he had paid a lot for it.[7] A scuffle over Black Coyote’s rifle escalated and a shot was fired which resulted in the 7th Cavalry’s opening fire indiscriminately from all sides, killing men, women, and children, as well as some of their own fellow soldiers. The Lakota warriors who still had weapons began shooting back at the attacking soldiers, who quickly suppressed the Lakota fire. The surviving Lakota fled, but U.S. cavalrymen pursued and killed many who were unarmed.

By the time it was over, more than 200 men, women, and children of the Lakota had been killed and 51 were wounded (4 men, 47 women and children, some of whom died later); some estimates placed the number of dead at 300.[4] Twenty-five soldiers also died, and 39 were wounded (6 of the wounded would later die).[8] At least twenty soldiers were awarded the Medal of Honor.[9] In 2001, the National Congress of American Indians passed two resolutions condemning the awards and called on the U.S. government to rescind them.

I think it is Standard Operating Procedure for the cops to show up heavily armed when there is an outbreak of gang violence.

When I was young, I thought liar and lawyer were the same word. I guess I was right after all.

Read my comment about the “tea party terrorists” who will next be shot down.

Fools like you will lap up the “official version of events.”

He knows. The question is who killed them.

And why.

“Somebody might tell this attorney that a number of people were killed in the event.”
*****************************************************************************************************
Yes, and perhaps the trigger-pullers need to be in jail on one million dollar bonds. And I’m betting that not a single one of the trigger-pullers are currently in jail. I’m betting they’re all sworn “peace” officers who were working with DOJ and ATF.

The attorneys who need to be most concerned that a number of people were killed are those plaintiff attorneys who will be representing (in the civil suits filed against individual trigger pullers, Waco and the ATF) the families of the dead American citizens who were shot to death by law enforcement. I’m reasonably sure that the wounded, disabled and falsely imprisoned will also be filing lawsuits.

1. when you have the facts on your side, argue the facts.
2. when you don’t have the facts on your side but the law is, argue the law.
3. when neither the facts or the law are on your side, argue. Loudly.

Looks like the shyster is going for option 3.

By what caliber, from what range?

You ought to find that information out before posting those dopey pictures.

Waco PD is in a real pickle. No doubt they are currently attempting to parlay bail reductions (”how does a million to a thousand sound, hoss?”) and return of property (bikes and trucks but not cell phones or cameras) in exchange for an iron-clad promise not to sue.

It won’t work. 170 times a million dollar bail is a joke, it’s an obvious attempt at a massive cover up and gag operation. It won’t work. People will go to jail, and I mean people with badges and people who gave orders.

Are you finished with the investigation? It seems so as you apparently are now the judge, and the jury over the entire matter as well.

I’d like to see if the participating cops are found to have set up the MC clubs, or if the one MC club noted in a later article set up the others before I stick my neck out, and declare one, or the other guilty.

You go ahead, and declare the cops guilty if you wish. I think it takes a lot away from the credibility you have built up here at this site over many years.

The attorney for the guy who killed 4 just blocks from Biden’s house says his client is the type of guy you would like your grandmother to have lunch with.

LMAO. But if I were ever accused of a grisly murder, I'd want this attorney to represent me. And so would my grandmother.

"They show up on every thread."

Truly amazing that so many "intelligent" people remain ignorant of history, and the fact that history repeats itself.

When tea party members use events like the Annual Toy Run to soften their normal activities of running prostitutes and methamphetamine, fools like you might have a point.

So, your source is your smarter brother?

I see a couple AR-15s, and I know there were a lot of dead people who dropped with head shots.

We can add 2 + 2 there, JBT boot likker.

I just don’t remember any time in history when almost 200 men were held on $1,000,000 bail and all being charged with organized crime.
for a rumble?
But i’m not going to argue with someone who’s been on the board 15 years. I would actually hope that you are right and there were guns blazing by the Cossacks and the Bandidos because then at least it wouldn’t seem like we are on our way to martial law. I guess ballistics will tell the story.

Yes you are correct. Unfortunately too many have already concluded that which hasn’t even come to a conclusion yet.

He also claims that the $1 million bonds are unreasonably oppressive and that the judge who set them and the judges who, so far, have not reduced them have shown bias and should be recused.

I suspect there may be a case of requiring excessive bond here. How many of those arrested are being charged with murder, or anything which would justify such extreme bond?
