Good thing the police was there....Could've been a lot worse.
Folks ought to act better out in public.

This isn't about real people. The problem was between biker gangs. I just hope no innocent bystanders were hurt.
Saw it on the Net and just saw it on NBC news.

Unfortunate choice of locale. Looked like innocents may have been caught in bad spot. According to the story, police were aware of the meet yet could not do much as the eatery management allowed the gathering. Things must have gone south quick before PD could respond appropriately.

Just waiting for the hue and cry with marches in the street. After all, biker lives matter too.

News here says 9 dead and 18 wounded. Gang fired on cops. Cops shot back.
That is the big news here in our parts with us living so close to Waco. Management there had been warned by local authorities of the possibility of serious trouble because the place had became known as a biker gang gathering place, but they wanted the customers and money. There were over half a dozen police units and others on scene before the trouble but the number of bikers there today were in the hundreds and from three known so far rival gangs.

All cops alive.
The only fatalities are gang members?
Clean up the trash and move along. Nothing to see here.

What a stupid thing to say. Just because someone rides a motorcycle and wears a leather jacket doesn't mean they aren't real people.
Deleted comments because it would get me banned.

This is shaping up quickly to be a short thread.
The antis will seize upon this to promote their anti-gun agenda. Frankly, they seize upon everything. Let's all email our legislators that "universal background checks" would not have prevented this and that they should continue to concentrate on the criminal mis-use of firearms.

XFuzz,
You seem to be the master of understatement. You would call Hiroshoma that place where the big firecracker went off.
I must be naive. I thought biker gangs were a thing of the past. Guess the reason for high cap auto pistols and multiple magazines DOES exist.
Looking at some of the photos, some of those folks are sporting quite a bit of gray hair. They're not spring chickens. Guess they didn't grow up, just grew older.

If they have a beef with each other, then they should settle it in Thunderdome.
I hope no innocent were harmed either, but going to biker hangouts is never a good plan. Hopefully a case of no humans involved

I think Texas Star is trying to make the distinction between riding clubs (fun, legal) and biker gangs who run drugs, prostitution and other illegal activity.
I have no problem with gang members of any vehicular persuasion (bike, car, Segue), race, religion, or even sex, being dead. If that is all that died, then good riddance.

Cops break up biker brawl in Texas. . . 9 dead bikers and no dead cops. I'm surprised this even made the media wires these days.
Just a question, but if one of us was in the restaurant when this happened and we fired back, what would be the outcome with it. We would be arrested I am sure but the cops wouldn't know if we were good or bad until questioned.
CNN Reports
100 weapons found -- how many are table knives and forks?
We are talking about a CNN "news" report.

That would be the problem in that type of situation, a good guy with a gun could easily be mistaken for a threat and shot during the chaos.

This deal has just turned real serious. I just read a news account that said they were closing the Wal-Mart nearest to the incident.

Some times you have no choice but to find cover and stay there. No one knows you. The cops just see one large group not individuals, and you are in that group. The bikers will fire back at you.
First thing to do is use your head, think.

3 clubs were involved
Biker War Erupts In Waco, Texas, 9 Dead 18 Wounded, Reinforcements Arriving To Continue Battle From Across The State! | Alternative
It took a bit of looking to find which clubs were in the mix.
The above link has the three.
We know who the final judge will be.
