Idiots. These jackasses watch too much Sons of Anarchy and think this **** is acceptable. I hope 8 of those dead were from the cops shooting back.
All of NM is in an uproar because the Red River Memorial Day Run is this coming weekend. There's usually thousands of bikes and they're stuffed into a small space. The Bandidos basically own that rally, but the Vagos and a new group of ****** bags, Wheels of Soul are now challenging the Bandidos for rights in NM.
The Bandidos and the Wheels of Soul **** heads got into a shooting at an Albuquerque Applebee's a while back. Same kind of thing as Waco, just less bikers. Supposedly, there may be revenge plans for Red River, so if any of you were planning on going, I'd recommend changing plans.
Patch called me a while back asking about extra guys for the run. I had a team of 8 guys, all a bunch of good guys with good skills. The RR Marshall refused to help find lodging and help cover costs. Departments are way short on money these days and mine is no exception. That trip was going to cost thousands and put us at a huge liability, and we had no place to sleep. With no support from the agency that needs help, my admin backed out, like just about everyone else around the state. That Marshall even alienates NM State Police. That's going to be a dangerous place this weekend.
There's all kind of alerts for groups of these idiots traveling all over the western US. Some supposedly have orders to ignore law enforcement and go to offense if pushed. I guess we'll see. My suggestion would be to not give these peckerwoods a reason to be pissed at you. They may become violent just to prove they can.
OFace is correct: Alone, they will run away from a fight because they are *******, but get 5 or 10 of them together and suddenly they're tough and extremely stupid.
And people wonder why I never leave the house unarmed. It's a shame really!
