You are entirely missing the point. (Purposely?). I don’t recall anyone, on any of these threads, defending the Bandidos. The question we are all asking, and have been for a month now is this, “Has the Waco PD (and BATF?) become just another lawless gang?”. So far it is looking like the answer is “yes”. As I posted weeks ago, if we have come to a point in this country where we just gun down people for having poor morals I can think of a number of people whose loss would benefit the country much more than outlaw bikers. If LE is going to be “just another gang” but with better equipment, financed by taxpayers, perhaps we need to reconsider that support. I don’t support the Bandidos in any way. Without my consent, my Taxdollars do support the BATF.

Hey I was responding to Boomers response defending the character of this particular individual. I'm not all in, and it just seems that if this happened in south central LA, no one would be rushing to defend these guys or find some LEO conspiracy. If we turned LEO firepower on a ghetto gang wearing baggy pants instead of biker vests that has been notoriously causing mayhem, meth misery, and murder to local citizens, there would be that applause GIF posted around here. And Boomer responds with a flippant must have had one run off with your old lady. These guys are scum! No better than their hood counterparts, same loyalty oaths, same get back philosophy, same turf defense, same method of making money.

So far all I see is the same speculation I saw in Ferguson by the libs without any grand jury testimony, autopsy report, internal investigation report, anything except grand speculation and sob stories to a hungry media from gang supporters with a vested interest to make LEO look bad and them innocent and pure. I am not in favor of police gunning down citizens, suspicious or not, but how about waiting for all the reports before jumping to the Saint Cossack and Virgin Bandido narrative.
