Concussion grenades? These cops musta thought they were gonna make some type of heavy duty world famous bust. Make the History and Discovery channels and be famous for the Big New Years Take Down of 2010. What a bunch of ********. All they did was waste time and tax money and ruined a party. *********...
Bonds for Lester and Foster are set at $3 million each.

It's RARELY black and white and there is almost always someone who will second guess your decision.

You guys crack me up. Here's an organization that is KNOWN for illegal activity, actually CALLS themselves Outlaws, held a guy at gunpoint to steal from him, were observed taking part in illegal activity and STILL the cops are the bad guys here.
And Stroh is right on. Ive been on many a raid and I woulda flashbanged every room in that place.

C'mon JW, you're not serious? (I assume you're not, based on the cute little smiley thingy) First, the police wouldn't hold you at gunpoint to remove your shirt, or because you were "acting like a cop". If they held you at gunpoint at all it would be because they had reason to believe that you were an imminent threat. More importantly though, the police have been granted authority (by their respective governing body) to hold you at gunpoint LEGALLY. Police and Outlaws are NOT equals in this case.

For those against the flashbang,..... can you tell us what YOUR approach would be to take over an Outlaw MC Clubhouse? (Besides sending all the other guys in first before you entered). Those guys have a reputation. No one wants to get shot upon entering the place.
No, I'm not a cop. Just a realist.

There is either more to the story or they wasted 14 month's if all they got was an undercover being stripped of his cut.

It appeared obvious that a disgruntled club member became an informant rather than a real policeman from that department becoming a patch holder in the “biker gang”.
But then I realized that a biker must have posed as a deputy for them to Keystone Cop that bust.
