Mid 1990's there was a high up Bandido who died. He apparently was from the Winnie area and buried there. I got caught in traffic for his funeral procession. It was massive and scary. The sound over well over a thousand Harley's was impressive.

To that point I did not know there was a gang that big but the Hells Angels.

Was this "event" promoted by Twin Peaks? I read somewhere that the police were not consulted by Twin Peaks. They were present. But not put in the loop on having this event?

Also read this event was held between TP and another place?

Not familiar with Waco. Can't imagine any business wanting to be overrun by BIKERS. meaning real gang guys. Not galveston biker rally or Sturgis guys?

Yeah that's kinda what I read between the lines in the conversation I had but like I said I'm not going to ask a bunch of questions about shite that is nomb. If the C.O.Cs get blown up I think it'll get worse before it gets better but who knows maybe they need to go and be replaced by so new system. I just hope this shite don't get outta hand.



I've heard that changes are coming and sooner rather than later. That's all I'm going to say.

You do know how silly that reads, correct?

our paper said that TP knew the meeting was going to take place, encouraged it, and would not cooperate with LE, who also knew about the meeting in advance

I used to have the same kind of wars with Timmy and Johnny that lived around the block from me growing up. They always wanted to fly this ugly green and yellow flag on their clubhouse and of course me and my crew wanted to fly the red, white and blue......there were a lot of pine cone wars back in the day.

Basically, yes. It's dumb and they're going to end up getting us all taken down by the Feds over it with crap like we saw yesterday.

is there money involved in this somehow? does the top MC get paid dues by all the lower ones or anything?

My gang actually welcomes the Feds trying to come and shut us down. Bring it.

But they better eat their Wheaties.

I work with 2 Bandits. One is retired. Both are good guys with families.
I can't imagine them being involved in this crap ... individually.
But group-think mentality makes sane people do stupid things. When a large group of guys gets together, all it takes is a couple of assholes for everything to go to hell.

Yes, it's about power and control, but Darth, aka Black Sponge, knows that it's about power and control over drugs and prostitution. The pot, the spice, the meth, the booger sugar, etc.
