I remember how they damn near shut down that town in Nevada due to one of their squabbles.

I was in Laughlin that weekend but we were at a different hotel. There is video of it up on youtube.

This should prove interesting; 170+ arrested and changed with engaging in organized crime and TX is a death penalty state.

The people arrested after the shootout at the Twin Peaks Restaurant, in south Waco, were charged with engaging in organized crime linked to capital murder, said Sgt. Patrick Swanton, a Waco Police Department spokesman.

Can't see that going anywhere with freedom of assembly.

Oh it's a RICO charge / case. UNLESS they keep it at the state level where the death penalty is in play. That gets 1 or more who knew / know something to roll over on the others.

If they RICO, federal charge them it changes the dynamic . Either way there's a whole lot of people going to be incarcerated.

I think they named that town appropriately.... Wack-O. It seems a place for the dirt to hit the oscillating turbine. I am amazed that no civilians were hurt. I hope that remains the case.

Yeah, It's amazing no innocents were hurt.

This NPR editorial is bizarre. I'm glad I didn't donate to them. I admit I like some of the National Public Radio broadcasts.

You think you'd be as safe at a biker party as you would at say a gun club bbq? LoL. What was this thread about?

They're retaliating alright. Both the Cosaks and Banditos have declared a war on anyone in uniform, I'll try to find a link.
Granted, that'll probably be put down by the bigger fish in the organizations that know that's a losing battle.

You'd probably lose more than the bike.

Yet another reason to carry. You're right, Nothing like drawing national attention to your local meth operation.
