Bottom line, I believe what happened was a huge mistake. I believe when the couple of Cossacks drew and fired at the Bandidos, there was an trigger-happy overreaction from the police that resulted in a massacre. And everything that's happened since is the Waco PD's attempt to cover up the fact that they royally screwed up and killed and injured a lot of innocent people, not to mention put at risk hundreds more, biker and non-biker equally, when they unleashed a hail of bullets like they were at the OK Corral.
I understand what you believe happened and I honestly don't know what happened. So much mis information has been put out it is hard to actually know what the facts are in this case. I do believe that this DA will have a very hard time proving that all of these bikers were involved in crimes whether they were or not.

You're right that we don't know what happened, especially out in the parking lot. Which the thing about that is there's plenty of video of what happened, the Waco PD is just not allowing the public to see that video. There's also been ample time to perform autopsies and identify who was killed by who. That information is still not coming out.
As for disinformation, there's been plenty of that from the Waco PD.
1. They claimed that the fight broke out inside Twin Peaks, but AP has seen 9 different camera angles from inside there and said no fight happened inside there. In fact all the video shows is bikers and civilians alike taking cover from a hail of bullets.
2. Then there's the matter of claiming bikers with "grenades and C4" were going to target cops. The cops claimed this info came form a club called the "Black Widows MC". Only problem is no such MC exists in Texas.
3. The cops claiming ever changing and outlandish numbers of weapons were seized at he crime scene. I think at first the number was like 50, then it jumped to 1,000 then it went down to 300 and back up to 500. Add in on top of that that they are considering things like chained wallets and vest extenders as "weapons" and this claim by the cops becomes more than absurd.

The biggest problem with proving all 170 bikers are guilty of anything is the fact that there is video of the vast majority of them being inside Twin Peaks and doing nothing illegal whatsoever then taking cover (also not illegal) when the shooting starts. How can they think people are guilty of something where there's video of them at the time of the alleged crime doing nothing but taking cover?
