    Apparently the Bandidos and Cossacks have a long-running feud in West Texas and the Waco Tribune reports they were two of the five gangs involved:

    Biker gang shootout leaves 9 dead, 18 wounded, ongoing investigation - Police - Waco Trib

    Early in my reporting career, I covered a deadly feud between the Hells Angels and Pagans. The Tribune's reporting reminded me of a gathering I witnessed with the two sides, and their multiple affiliates, coming together at a biker event and standing off with each other old west style. Thankfully it didn't end with gunfire though. Some crazy shit.

    It's a small thing, but I don't see how Twin Peaks continues to operate after this if it's true that corporate knew about this in advance. To know that's going down and allow non-bikers into the restaurant? Sweet Jesus, the liability.

    Very, very strange facets to that image ... 9 dead just across the way from a Bed, Bath & Beyond.

    Nine less loser asshole bikers to breathe my air. Maybe hold a steel cage deathmatch inside the restaurant, show it on pay per view, and pay off Waco's municipal debt.

    You covered the feud? Hope you mentioned everyone. Otherwise, you might be costing a biker a scholarship.

    Thankfully, no waitresses were harmed.

    Yeah, but they got stiffed on their tips.
    Unless you count the tips of severed fingers.

    That reminds me of the old leper and the prostitute joke.
