Not being there is not an option for LE. If that was the case LE would only goto the situations they wanted to. LE had intel that violence was going to take place both from internal and external sources. This is something I do know first hand. Multiple agencies and multiple CIs. The option of putting them on an island and letting them have a cage fight is not an option for LE. I do agree there are multiple meetings every year all over Texas. LE is aware and monitor. This meeting required a high visibility large LE response because of acquired intel.Last edited by glen; 02-14-2018, 08:32 AM.

And I completely agree with this. As long as it applies to all situations.
The Baltimore riots happened in early May 2015. The Waco shootout happened May 17th 2015. Was there no intel that there was going to be violence in Baltimore? Not really surprised, but the publics (and LEOs) response to both events is pretty different, and telling.

Some of the things not everyone knows. Cossacks and Banditos had several conflicts leading up to this and “club members” took chains and beat a different “club’s member” for wearing a Texas rocker on their jacket- one of these incidents occurred in Lorena a few weeks before this happened. Cossacks showed up in force that day next door to Bandito’s home base. This was never going to a Sunday of breaking bread

DA does not decide what LE does on scene. And not sure why anyone would deny that LE used deadly force. I wasn’t there but will say if I would have been dispatched there I would hAve done my job that day- if by horrible circumstances I had to use force up to and including g deadly force I would have done my job. I’m sure every cop that was there that day would have rather been somewhere else
