Quote:I did hear that the Police got involved in the shooting
I'm going to go out on a limb here and predict that when (
or if) the whole story comes out, it's going to turn out that most or all of the dead were killed by the cops.
I don't doubt that there was a fight, and that some, maybe a lot, of the people involved are a**holes, but IMO the official version of events smells to high heaven.
As of today the Waco police claim they don't know how many, or which, cops fired their weapons. That's utter bull crap and flies in the face of the SOP of every police department in the country when it comes to officer involved shootings.
And 170 arrests with bond set a 1 million bucks. For what? Being there? I bet most of those arrested didn't even know there was a fight going on till it was over. Even so-called undesirables are entitled to due process. I read in one report that the cops arrested anyone who was in possession of a Harley ignition key or key fob.
And of course there is the asset forfeiture question. Even when this all works it's way through the courts and most of the guys arrested are released, how may of them do you think are going to get their bikes back, once the Waco cops claim ownership and auction them off.
The Waco PD screwed the pooch on this one big time and now the CYA starts. If they hadn't been there this would have been a local story about a bar fight I believe.
