RItual. 9 dead, 18 wounded. 9 upside down = 6 , 18 divide by 2 = 9x2 which = 6,6,6
also if you want to just do common math 18 = 6 6 6 broken down
9 dead @ twin valley which is basically 9/11
couple more stuff but it was definitely ritualistic

They're attacking everything that represents the rebellious American spirit. Most bikers are vets....and yes, there are THOUSANDS of 1% black MCs like the Black Souls 440 (also a Chi Mob)...the Souls on Wheels...Black Scorpions...Black Steel, etc...multiethnic groups.
Motorcycle CLUBS have been part of the culture since forever. Once they go, once "gangs/street orgs" go, once the black market goes, the soul of America leaves...

Who made this ridiculous meme?

Which were racist gangs?

192 were arrested, 9 killed, 17 wounded.

All have been charged with organized crime under Rico.

They're debating whether to charge all 192 with capital murder under Texas' felony murder law.

While the rest of America tried to make sense Monday of the weekend shootout at the Waco Twin Peaks -- and learned of a whole biker subculturefeaturing sometimes-violent turf wars -- the Texas legislature debated a bill that would expand the rights of licensed gun owners to openly carry weapons in public.

To be fair, this wasn't the first time the Texas state Senate took up the matter of expanded gun rights. At the start of the legislative session in January, leaders in the Republican-controlled body identified an open-carry law as a legislative priority -- a proposal that has been debated in one legislative committee or another ever since. And contrary to the state’s gun-loving, gun-slinging reputation, Texas is one of just six states that do not have a so-called “open carry law” on the books.

[Waco Twin Peaks, criticized by police following shootout, ‘will not reopen’]

But even in Texas, debating the merits of a bill that relaxes gun laws one day after nine people were killed in a shootout between rival biker gangs and police at a Waco restaurant seems oddly timed. It's tailor-made for a "Daily Show" segment full of knowing jokes about America’s relationship with guns and the country’s singularly elevated gun death rate among wealthy nations.

What happened in the Texas state Senate on Monday was also, in many ways, just an example of the vastly different ways in which crimes committed by white individuals – even when those individuals are members of organized criminal organizations and happen on a spectacular scale – are routinely if not always viewed as the questionable, discrete acts of independent actors.\

Consider the headlines, cable news show line-ups and editorials that would have followed if the weekend shootout happened at a Waco hip-hop show or club.

Over in a corner of Twitter that most of white America doesn't visit (because apparently our social media networks are about as segregated as they are in real life), snark took over. Many tweeted ironically about the corrosive influence of biker culture on weekend warriors and the imperative need for white leaders to denounce the broader scourge of “white on white crime” in front of hashtags like, “#stuffthemedianeversays." Pictures of Sarah Palin and in leather biker gear popped up along below tweets about “radical white politicians, who “coddle,” and commune with, “thugs.” The subtext of all of it was clear: This is what the world’s paid and volunteer shouter corps say when the tragedies involve black people, not white.

"9 killed in Waco biker gang shootout - where are the white leaders decrying this white-on-white violence?" #stuffthemedianeversays

All the while, a planned debate about the merits of the bill moved right along. Austin Police Department Police Chief Troy Gay testified that an open carry law would almost certainly complicate the chaotic situation at Twin Peaks. And at the other end of the spectrum, Bill Crocker -- an Austin lawyer, member of the National Rifle Association and a Texas concealed carry permit holder -- expressed real doubt that the shootout at Twin Peaks included a single licensed concealed carry permit holder. So, Crocker reasoned, the state Senate should have no reservations about a open carry law. Most of the rest of the testimony lined up on either side.

The tweets mentioned above, written by people tired of the litany of think pieces and cable TV shout sessions about black America’s allegedly dysfunctional culture and the supposed threat to civilization posed by sagging pants, spoke to something real. White Americans – whether members of biker gangs, declared criminal organizations or not– enjoy the constant luxury of being viewed as precisely what they are: individuals capable of all manner of accomplishment and bad behavior at any given moment in time.

Texas Senator Blamed Violence In Baltimore On ‘Absent Fathers,’ Has Nothing To Say About Waco Massacre
BY CARIMAH TOWNES POSTED ON MAY 20, 2015 AT 8:00 AM

In the aftermath of protests surrounding the deaths of unarmed black men and women, outspoken members of the GOP, including Sens. John Cornyn and Ted Cruz (R-TX), were quick to contextualize the tragedies and criticize black people for violent behavior. But in the wake of a deadly gunfight between two biker gangs — which left nine people dead, 18 wounded in Waco, and 170 charged for criminal activity — two of Texas’ most prominent leaders have yet to respond to the violent shootout.

Days into the Baltimore protests sparked by Freddie Gray’s death, Cornyn (R) spoke on the Senate floor about how to understand and address deeply-ingrained tension in Baltimore and Ferguson. “The whole idea of a young man dying in police custody, the confrontations with police, the looting and burning of innocent minority-owned businesses…these are all scenes we would expect perhaps in other countries…but that’s what we saw,” he said of events that transpired in both cities. “We’re doing a great disservice to ourselves and everyone else so clearly frustrated by the status quo, if we isolate Baltimore or Ferguson as just individual instances of civic unrest, and if we don’t step back and see how they fit into the broader issue of our entire criminal justice system.” He also called on families, civic organizations, faith groups, and Congress to “correct injustice” and “remedy basic instability” in similar communities nationwide.

Two days later, Cornyn went so far as to blame riots in Baltimore on absent fathers, linking to a Bloomberg article about the breakdown of traditional family structures in the black community and the raising of children out of wedlock.








Cruz was similarly vocal about violent protests stemming from Gray’s death, slammingPresident Obama for “inflaming” the riots. “He has not used his role as president to bring us together,” he said, while speaking before the National Press Club. “He has exacerbated racial misunderstandings, racial tensions.”

Months earlier, Cruz wrote a cautious response to clashes in Ferguson, expressing sadness over Brown’s death, asking that civil liberties be respected, and denouncing violence.










But neither Cruz nor Cornyn has responded to the deadly shootout between the Bandidos and Cossacks — two rival biker gangs that exchanged gunfire outside of aHooters-like restaurant last weekend. Although the two condemned violent means of expressing anger in Ferguson and Baltimore, in reference to rioting and the looting of local businesses, they have yet to acknowledge the bikers who turned their weapons on law enforcement. Both have stayed quiet about the Bandidos and Cossacks’ long-standing involvement in organized crime, and neither senator has addressed the gangs members’ white supremacist leanings, despite bringing up race in the context of Baltimore and Ferguson.

However, this not the first time conservatives, including Cruz, have been slow to denounce outlaws who’ve resorted to violence against police. When the Bureau of Land Management tried to take cattle away from Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, who owed $1 million in grazing fees, Bundy and a host of right-wing supporters engaged in an armed standoff with federal rangers for several days. Without touching on Bundy’s use of force, Cruz blamed Obama for the armed standoff, arguing it was “the unfortunate and tragic culmination of the path that President Obama has set the federal government on.” Former Gov. Rick Perry (R-TX) also said, “I have a problem with the federal government putting citizens in the position of having to feel like they have to use force to deal with their own government. That’s the bigger issue.”

Since the massive gunfight on Sunday, much has been written about the media terminology used to describe the shootout and bikers involved, compared to descriptions of black demonstrators and victims elsewhere in the country. But the absence of commentary from vocal politicians marks another significant difference in the way race and violence are addressed at a national level.

ThinkProgress reached out to the senators’ offices via phone and email. This post will be updated with their comments, if provided.
