Waco Biker Gang Shootout, Nine Dead

[jrbfishn]

Pretty much.

Means you do not have to know anything about firearms to work at BATFE.

Or Jennifer learned a thing or 2 from Monica.

That's a fact.

 

[F350-6]

WTH does that even mean?

Sounds like she's been spending too much time on the Alcohol and hasn't gotten around to Firearms yet.

BOOM

 

[Stukaman]

She's an ex shot girl like at the liquor stores.

Many are going to be playing with some serious cash in the next few years.

Yeah I'll pass on hanging around IDIOTS, getting in a shootout, then getting arrested, sitting locked up for a while only so I can have the chance to sue the PD and city....

I've spent too much time with public affairs officers with federal agencies. Unlike local law enforcement that likes to put someone in uniform in front of the camera, the feds often hire public affairs workers for their degrees in communications or journalism. They can find themselves completely ignorant of the subject matter the agency deals with yet shoved in front of cameras.

I've actually felt sorry for some who where trying to do a good job but got blindsided by technical questions.

I find a hibrid approach the best. Have a panel of experts there as backup to a public affairs worker. Public affairs worker preps the experts for questioning and tries to reign them in from going off too far left field.

I'll never forget this guy. He's great at his job, I'm sure, but it doesn't translate well to the media interview.

I doubt obama was trying to do a good job (except for himself!).

Unfortunately, true.......

We've had computer programmer from Puerto Rico turned ATF inspector and a Social Worker from Texas Child Protective Services turned ATF inspector in the shop for audits......

Neither had a clue about firearms......the inspectors are not trained on firearms, but focus exclusively the paperwork FFL's must perform.......

We've had one over the years...just one Inspector that knew firearms......Her father is a 07 Manufacturer, Type 02 SOT and a collector....

[grasshopperglock]

12 long guns?


How'd the hell did a biker stash a "long gun"??????




They used a metal detector.........to find buried guns? Who was digging holes? In broad daylight, during a gun fight.....

Wtf

 

[grasshopperglock]

I'm gonna wait on the movie. This thing has more twist and turns then a wet chicken running down the road.

In a vehicle. Not all of them arrived on bikes.

Hidden elsewhere under/in things in the restaurant and nearby, bushes, etc. Metal detectors don't require something be underground.

 

[itchin]

They're in CYA mode.

 

[grasshopperglock]

Knowing channel 25 as I do...


They tend to embellish things and the police give them some out right fantasy stuff.


I'd guess about 35% of what they report is made up crap.

 

[texas skeeter]

Hmmmmm, a Biker club meeting and shows up in a car or truck? Kind of defeats the purpose!!

 

[easy rider]

Although there are many CLUBS that have plenty of bad apples, I still cringe when they are called gangs. It puts all bikers in a bad light.
