RE: Biker Gang Shootout in Texas
May 25, 2015 at 6:11 am
I live within an hour's drive of all this.
I think they over-reacted by arresting almost 200 bikers right afterwards. Fortunately, it did cool the tension and prevent a gang war from breaking out later that night.
Most of them arrested were gang members, and since these specific gangs are criminal gangs, they can get a lot of them on organized crime charges. I believe some of them were wanted for other things, too. Most of them could be visually identified with their gangs: tattoos, colors, etc. It was not an "Arrest any bikers you see" thing.
(As for the race issue, biker gangs tend to attract mostly white, some hispanic, males. I'm very glad that's the case, because if the race issue had gotten involved, things would have gotten a lot more hectic.)
Now they're running into a shortage of lawyers to prosecute all these people because they arrested so many. Welllll maybe they should let some more of them (who were farther from the scene) go?

Or just discretely shoot them in the back of the head and feed the bodies to pigs. Wouldn't be a great loss for humanity and I doubt even their own mothers would give a sh*t. At least the ones without mufflers on their f-ing bikes. Whenever I hear one of those damn things from 5 blocks away I fantasize about hanging piano wire across the street. Inconsiderate anti-social c***s...

How about that, I'm not the only one with the piano wire fantasy.
Loved the South Park ep on the noise issue, BTW.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

No they did not overreact. You approach a chaotic event like that you cant make any assumptions, you detain people until you sort things out otherwise you risk letting the perps get away. I'd say the gang leaders should get charged equally as any shooter if not worse, even if the rest are bystanders. If any of these idiot basses don't get charged they should take as a lesson and get the fuck out of the gang.

But if an unarmed black guy gets shot well we all know the drill: "That nigger had it coming!"
You're a hate monger Mini.
Do you understand the function of quotation marks in grammar?
When you see them, they represent words that the writer is ascribing to someone else.

So you don't give a shit how many "niggers" get killed as long as your fucking hero cops can go on doing it, eh Lek?
What the fuck is wrong with you? I think too much jesus has fried your fucking brain.
BTW, we are seeing in Baltimore that the cops....frustrated in losing their ability to beat the shit out of anyone they like...are refusing to do their jobs. The NY cops had a similar hissy fit a while back. We need better cops.

Sure I care about how many of any people get killed. I just don't hate cops.

Quite a distinction. You don't want people killed but at the same time you want the cops able to do so with impunity.
You know, pappy jesus doesn't forgive them for that. Your shit is not real.
Time to face up to the fact that the cops are agents provocateurs...they are not out there to keep the peace.

"Manspreading" refers to sitting on a subway train with your legs spread....thus taking up another seat. I bet that's a serious crime in NY....but only in minority neighborhoods.

No. He's pointing out that racial profiling amongst cops has deadly consequences, and he's driving that pointing home by using language that some of them use.

That's just cruel. Have you ever had your pins-and-needles with your cock? Some of us have to take a ... uh ... wide stance ... uh ... never mind.
