out weapons against the police. never. my guys have never pulled out weapons against the police. none of them. the county hopes the arrests and prosecution will change this long, tiresome battle with an old foe. is this a message to other biker gangs? from this county? very definitely. you know, you want to call this trouble. come into the county. stab people. shoot people. beat them up. you need to think twice. need to do it some where else. nine people died in that brawl on sunday. and even though things have calmed down. authorities are still worrie about violent retaliation from bikers. basically there was contracts out on us. and that is toned down some. we, we said early, that what we would look to see happen is we understand this was a very violent terrible event. we have seen enough bloodshed in
