I was reading that more gang members keep showing up with weapons to retaliate, they are warning people to stay out of the area.

From the news reports I've read it has been brewing for a while. The police were at the scene before the fight broke out because they knew something was going to happen. The police were trying to work the Twin Peaks management for the last several weeks but management wouldn't cooperate. I see lots of lawsuits coming over this one from customers not associated with the gangs.

I read this morning that TABC has revoked that Twin Peaks alcohol license for 7 days. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't reopen.

one of my many ex-wife's who now lives in Tennessee sent me a message yesterday to ask if I was in Waco at Twin Peaks this past weekend. I had to clarify what kind of group I belong to.

Okay. We better ditch the patches for now, and we'll need to color UNcoordinate before we ride.
