Do you suppose that the full slate of lawsuits against the city will be filed by the time voters get to decide?

Or perhaps the better question is will the civil rights of the 100+ who are being held without due process be restored by then?

Interesting timing...

I suspect Swineton over-rates his current importance and what the voters will think of him by next year.

I thought that Swanson was removed as spokesman for the Waco fiasco after he proved incapable of keeping his lies straight-—a skill very important for a politician. Anyhow, I guess this slug is looking toward becoming a “double-dipper” from the government trough.

Failing to see how even don’t0 could remotely turn this mundane story into something sympathetic to the criminal bike gangs. Betcha ya can’t.

If you guys look a wee bit past your noses, you would see that the citizens of Waco are happy as larks with your criminal biker gang folks remaining locked away. Maybe a bit like in California after the Angles showed their arses one too many times, it was unsafe for any gang biker with colors, people trying to run em over.

Amusing. You and a few other posters use "criminal biker gang" like "running dog capitalist oppressor pig" or "cisgender heteronormativist" or various similar memes and modalities of impotent propaganda.

It's quite adorable.

Forty years ago it would have been "dope smoking longhair hippies" and your meme would still have come across like a mildly constipated (yet anxiously flatulent) SNL Church Lady.

But I stress, the adorability endures.

“Isn’t that special?”

Yes, it’s always important to have a spokes mouth who can stand in front of the camera and tell lies without appearing dishonest. A smooth liar is always someone who is held in high regard by the public!
Look honey, it’s the cop who lied about those bikers that were shot dead at Twin Peaks that Sunday afternoon. Let’s vote for him! He is so believable, I like the way he lies to me with a strait face! What a talent, reminds me of the Clintons or even the master of untruths, Obama!
Yea, that’s a vote getter for sure/S

Not convenient yet. Please be patient. There needs to be sufficient time for the situation to be muddled; memories to become uncertain, propaganda to be calcified, money to be lost, damaged lives to settle into changed circumstances, political careers to be advanced, evidence to be altered, memes to be propagated, quiet settlements to be reached, backroom deals to be concluded, and the People to forget.

Except some will not forget.

I've said it before and I've said it again. Karma's an unforgiving bitch, and when she sits down at your table she doesn't get up until she's licked her plate.

There's a whole lotta old fashioned karma comin' down, with respect to Mr. Nelson. She just ain't here quite yet.

They are all out on bond ... per their due process.

Forty years ago it was still ‘criminal biker gang’.

I guess all those that joined those criminal biker gangs are feeling it now.

Yes! Sweeping those pretty wholesome church girls off the street and carrying them away on their infernal machines for plundering and despoiling in their dens of hair, leather and sin.

"We even made little Visigoth babies of our own with the absolutely hottest ones. I recall riding that old panhead down South Woodward and just taking my pick of the long-legged ones with tossing hair outside the Collegiate Ministry."

Silly child wants to make it about me. Cannot get over the fact that his / her pathetic efforts to kill all discussion of Waco just did not work out for him / her.
