Biker Gang Shootout Texas, 9 Dead

Just heard this on BBC radio while reading this. I just watched final episode of Sons a few days ago. Massive body count in that series.
 
Congratulations. You've just passed the previous record for deadly bikie gun battles.

The previous record was 7 dead and 19 wounded at Milperra in Sydney, just 200 yards from the school where I was teaching.

This happened before our gun control measures were strengthened after the Port Arthur massacre.
 
We used to hold the record for a single mass killing (Martin Bryant, Port Arthur, 35 dead) until Anders Behring Breivik (Norway) killed 69 participants of a Worker's Youth League camp.
 
Yes, well, we will have to try harder, but hope it would be another biker shootout or a neo-Nazi group that provides us with the record...
 
Gang Members shooting other Gang Members....sounds like a Great Idea to me. If I could be assured that these Biker and Drug gang members would only use their weapons on Each Other, I would gladly donate some guns to the cause.
 
Read about it this morning on the news...and I have to agree with Butterfly..let them kill each other, but the scary thing about this shoot out was that it happened in a restaurant on a retail park, so it's an absolute miracle no innocent citizen was injured.

I looked at the pictures of these guys expecting to see YOBS and couldn't believe my eyes when I saw they were mostly middle aged....my God do these men never grow up..:mad:
 
Yeah... some real hard core biker gangs are pretty much all middle age.. Most Biker bars are older people... and most just come to show off their bikes. Some REAL expensive high end machines I may add...
 
Oh yes we have ''hells angels' here too..almost all middle aged and older, but they do it for the joy of riding and showing off their bikes which they spend a lot of time and money on making beautiful. They don't go around shooting or knifing people.. (although we did have a problem with them and violence way back in the 70's)..but not now thank God, they must have all grown up in this country.. :D
 
This is a biker bar very close to my other house in NW Illinois... It's called Poopy's. From the pic you can see this is a higher class clientele. Most are middle aged and older professionals, who can afford the bikes you see in the lot. They come to BS.. have a good time and show off their latest acquisitions. Plus the riding on the rural roads is supposed to be fabulous. Lots of hills and turns. They come there from Chicago and Iowa and Wisconsin. Not hoodlums.. and not going to have shootouts.

Aren't motorcycle clubs are very different from biker gangs, since the gangs kill each other and participate in illegal drug trade and underworld activities, while biker clubs are just a bunch of older guys finally living their dream of being able to afford the bike they always wanted in their youth.
 
Bandidos were part of this current dust up in Texas. The Milperra massacre involved the Bandidos and Commancheros. (spelling?)
They had all originally been part of the one gang and were contesting for rights to the drugs franchise.

It was Father's Day and it was supposed to be a family BBQ until the rival gang turned up complete with their armorary.
A teenage girl was caught in the crossfire.
