Innocent Bikers Slaughtered by Government Sting Operation to Teach ‘Rebels’ a Lesson

Just like the Branch Davidian bloodbath and Oklahoma City bombing, the ATF and FBI intimidate non-conforming fringe groups

Agents Provocateurs Used to Manufacture Fake Feud Between the Two Biker Groups

Michael Thomas State of the Nation
Nothing scares the U.S. Federal Government more than an awakening populace that is moved to the point of revolting, or even organizing. Whenever citizens come together in a cohesive fashion to advance the deeply shared common goal of exposing government corruption, betrayal and malfeasance, all hell is bound to break loose.  And so it did… at the Twin Peaks Restaurant in Waco, Texas on May 18th, 2015.
Make no mistake about it — this meticulously preplanned assassination of targeted bikers at Twin Peaks was a government-coordinated conspiracy designed to thwart any attempt to flex their muscles.  It was also perpetrated to blacken the reputations of biker groups everywhere.  They are groups, not gangs, as the Mainstream Media (MSM) purposefully and disparagingly call them.
The two biker groups involved also belong to a growing fringe culture that is far removed from any of the violent gangs of the past.  These organizations are, in fact, much more civilized and law-abiding than the law enforcement departments that monitor them 24/7.  They certainly don’t engage in misguided plots to commit cold-blooded murder like the alphabet soup government agencies which are supposed to protect them and everybody else.

Just who are these bikers who were falsely portrayed as a bunch of wild and crazy types similar to the “dreaded Black Widow biker gang”?
In fact both biker groups were composed of white collar guys and blue collar gals, professionals and laborers, who all shared the love of life on the road … riding their motorcycles on infinite stretches of blacktop.  They also shared a deep distrust of the U.S. Government.  Many of the bikers were combat veterans, ex-military contractors, retired government civil service workers, as well as other corporate types which permitted them to see just how the federal government really works … or doesn’t.
As far as the 9 bikers who were assassinated at Twin Peaks were concerned, all of them were combat veterans with extensive experience and expertise.  Just the kind of ‘good ole boys’ club the Feds are wary of in this day and age of mutual suspicion generated by JADE HELM 15.  These folks have banded together in light of their shared experience with incessant government betrayal and military mission creep.

The Veterans Administration alone has contributed greatly to their ongoing crisis of confidence.  After all, these men and women fought for their nation and were willing to give the ultimate sacrifice.  Many watched their brethren die horrible deaths in the service of their country.  In both cases the US government has repeatedly demonstrated a callous disregard for their physical welfare and psychological well-being.
Quite unfortunately, when groups like this begin to grow in numbers and strength, just like militias did prior to the OK City bombing in 1995,  they greatly increase their chances of being infiltrated.  Herein lies the essence of the government’s conspiracy to destroy them from within.  Exactly who the duplicitous agents were in this Trojan Horse remain to be identified, and may be impossible to ascertain. That’s because the co-conspirators ALWAYS have a Plan B, Plan C and Plan D to implement in the event of their cover being blown.  Plots like this can go 10 contingency plans deep, if they must, in order to prevent exposure of the government conspiracy.

What really did happen at Twin Peaks in Waco on Monday, May 18th?

As follows:
It turns out that the ATF claimed they had an anonymous tip that the dreaded Black Widow biker gang—you remember those scoundrels from the Clint Eastwood movie Every Which Way but Loose—were going to arrive looking for trouble. It’s too bad Clyde wasn’t around to throw those guys in the used French fry oil tank. The ATF was there with their Federal guidance to make sure that justice was swift and absolute.
No shots were fired by anyone inside the restaurant. No shots were fired by anyone at the police. When bikers decided to leave the restaurant and enter the parking lot, the police began shooting full-auto equipped M-16’s into the crowd. Patrons began diving under tables and screaming for their lives. Little waitresses dropped their trays and ran with terror in their eyes behind the chef’s counter. A twice decorated Viet Nam War veteran was shot in the head and neck, although he was a highly respected pacifist, was unarmed and not involved in any of the scuffle inside the Twin Peaks establishment. Eight more US citizens were gunned down in cold blood. More than 500 rounds were fired by police, hitting cars, buildings, and injuring other innocent bystanders who happened to look like bikers. Two shots took seven of the nine people assassinated in the parking lot; one in the neck and one in the head fired by expert police marksmen.[1]
This rendition of events is a just a ‘tad’ different from the fictitious MSM reports that were blared all over America, well before anyone even had a chance to investigate the massacre. The MSM’s well-rehearsed media coverage was quite reminiscent to the spate of patently false reports immediately issued on 9/11 while the attacks were still practically occurring. It was as though every organ of the Mainstream Media was given a falsified script to write or read from regarding the ‘unspeakable’ carnage at the Twin Peaks restaurant.

Here’s how a real investigative reporter put it:
Within an hour, the police press statement belched lies about “criminal biker gangs,” dealing drugs and other things that never happened; not once in the 18 years bikers have been meeting peacefully at the Waco Twin Peaks restaurant. The police spokesman first mentioned hundreds of weapons confiscated, including chains that connected wallets to belt loops. Then they changed it to dozens. Then, the facts showed there were fewer than ten, and one was still holstered by a licensed concealed carry American, who had undergone an extensive background check and was found to be spotless. His bond was placed at an unreasonable $1 million. Of the 170 bikers arrested for being at the wrong place at the wrong time, less than a third had any criminal record. Three of them had drafted a new piece of legislation about biker safety, and have since been awarded by the City Counsel for safety awareness. Of course, they couldn’t be there to accept the award, because they were in jail.[1]

Now for the coverup … as expected all the usual suspects are involved

It’s clear that the Feds, who are running this false flag massacre, have used the same playbook that they have always used. They locked down the crime scene to any outside scrutiny; they have released no evidence whatsoever and they have done everything possible to avoid or gag every witness imaginable.
To this moment, no waitresses, cooks, or patrons have been interviewed by the press. Witness intimidation is in full force making sure no one says anything about what really happened. All surveillance video has been classified and is currently being edited by law enforcement professionals to make sure no officers are charged with murder. This was clearly a premeditated, Federal assault designed to kill first, and arrest the survivors.[1]
But, wait, this time they have even taken the extra step to arrest the 170 bikers present, the vast majority of which had no part in the matter.  How do you spell:

I N T I M I D A T I O N ?

Just like the aftermath of the Oklahoma City bombing when hundreds of militias across the nation disbanded, biker groups will likely experience the same membership reaction. The ranks of some have already shrank since the Twin Peaks massacre.  For one thing, you never really know who in the group may be a mole for the Feds, or worse, a dangerous agent provocateur.
In the case of Twin Peaks, it appears that agents provocateurs were busily at work fabricating a pretext so that the ATF snipers could start assassinating the bikers that had been deliberately targeted.  With such a hideous yet clandestine massacre by the Feds paraded across the evening news for days, who will ever look at biker groups the same?

Witnesses Being Silenced Through Judicial Extortion and Prosecutorial Misconduct

When the city police made the fateful mistake of arresting 170 bikers in order to intimidate the greater community of bikers across America, they really misjudged popular sentiments.  This major faux pas reflects their level of desperation to muzzle anyone who plans on fighting for justice within the system … or revealing the truth outside of it.
usa-crime-biker-gang
Particularly when sitting judges and prosecuting attorneys behave in a manner that smacks of outright tyranny, will the electorate draw a red line.  The following excerpt, from an internet plea by an attorney representing one of the biker detainees, has basically put out an unparalleled SOS.  The lawyer’s level of consternation and incredulity is reflected by this shocking revelation which appeared under the following headline:

BOND REDUCTIONS OFFERED ONLY IN EXCHANGE FOR WAIVING POTENTIAL LAWSUITS IN WACO SHOOTOUT

It appears the Public Defender’s office in McLennan County is involved in this scurrilous activity,” said Paul Looney, a Houston attorney with Looney & Conrad, P.C. “I’ve never seen anything like the lawlessness that the authorities have perpetrated on these people and now to add insult to injury they are trying to cover their own tracks in exchange for bond.”[2]
Who ever imagined that 170 people could be unlawfully held in a U.S. county jail and then extorted for their freedom by a promise not to file a wrongful imprisonment lawsuit.  Even for the Criminal Injustice System, as it is often called, this level of judicial and prosecutorial misconduct is unprecedented.
“They know these people aren’t dangerous or they wouldn’t be offering the bond reductions and they know the police and the D.A.’s office have violated the law and now they are trying to hold people hostage until they agree to waive their rights. It’s unconscionable,” said Clay S. Conrad, Looney’s law partner.[2]
The degree of misconduct by the District Attorney and Public Defender not only constitutes grounds for disbarment, it is also actionable as a criminal offense.  So, too, are the rulings of the participating judges, should any of them rubber stamp what is essentially state-sponsored extortion.  Here is another take on the matter.
One family member of a biker summed up the news like this:
In other words, the Waco PD is putting a gun to the head of the accused by holding their freedom for ransom. “If you want out, give us a pass.”
Such a thing is nothing short of extortion! If they refuse, they intend on continuing to hold them on the $1-million bond.[2]
Illicit and extreme behavior like this on the part of all the government officials involved ALWAYS reflects a desperate attempt to cover up the state’s crimes.  They have crossed many lines into illegality in Waco, just as they did when they burned down the Branch Davidian compound on April 19th of 1993.  That act of state-sponsored mass murder is forever burned into the consciousness of the entire nation as it watched men, women and children shot by ATF snipers and burned alive … for no reason.
Waco Massacre at the Branch Davidian compound in 1993

Which begs the question: Why is this dramatic type of flagrant and brutal lawbreaking by the state perpetrated in Waco’s McLennan County?
Who so controls McLennan county, the city of Waco and the entire law enforcement apparatus that they feel they can get away with bloody murder whenever they so dictate?
Conclusion
The simple point of fact is that the Twin Peaks massacre-in-broad-daylight was an extraordinarily reckless and foolhardy blackop.  Only a profoundly fearful government would attempt such a violently insane move against the people they are sworn to protect. With all the other false flag shootings and attacks — both here and abroad — being perpetrated monthly, and sometimes weekly, the people are starting to wake up.  They are fast approaching a point of zero tolerance.
Let’s face it, this time around Texas, not Massachusetts, is ground zero for a citizen’s revolt.  Call it the 2nd American Revolution of 2016.  Instead of the tyrannical British Crown, it will be the despotic U.S. Federal Government that is under siege.  Washington knows full well what’s coming around the corner.  The thoroughly autocratic White House will use every means of totalitarian power possible to shut down a rebellious citizenry.
Their crimes — of both elected and appointed government officials — are now too numerous and too serious to hide any further.  With the advent of the internet the U.S. Government’s multi-decade crime spree has now become common knowledge.  Even among the many trusting, idealistic and religious folks have true conspiracy theories about government betrayal and treason become accepted.
From this point forward, it is only a matter of time as to when the current federal government collapses.  Regardless of which administration is in power at the time, when the government routinely tramples on the constitution, violates the public trust, and breaches the social contract, it is time for it to go.
Especially when the government’s standard MO is to manufacture consent by way of false flag attacks (remember 9/11) and to execute social engineering agendas via false flag assassinations such as Twin Peaks, has it completely outlived their usefulness.  Truly, the U.S. Federal Government has so strayed from its original purpose that it has left the governed with but one last alternative.

What is the deal with women’s nipples? Why does our society act as though they are these coveted, mystical things that should only come out in the bedroom? I mean, the main purpose of female nipples is to provide a passage of breast milk to babies and create a bond between mother and child. Male nipples, on the other hand, virtually serve no purpose whatsoever, and they are freely exposed on the Internet and in public places.

Why exactly is it okay for men to have their nipples exposed, yet women – even those who are breastfeeding – are often scoffed at and looked down upon? Not to mention the fact that we are constantly exposed to extremely sexual, provocative advertisements of women, yet a nipple is not allowed to be shown on Instagram. Why are we keeping female nipples hidden, is there an agenda behind this?
So, in a massive attempt to drive social change and gender equality, nipples are being revealed, on the Internet!

“It is illegal for women to go topless in most cities, yet you can buy a magazine of a woman without her top on at any 7-11 store. So you can sell breast, but you cannot wear breast, in America.” – Violet Rose

Free The Nipple!

A documentary came out in 2014 called “Free The Nipple.” This empowering 90-minute movie was co-written and directed by Lino Esco and definitely helped start the nipple revolution. The goal of this production was to decriminalize the named body by protesting and raising awareness about the censorship laws in the U.S.A.
Showcasing an army of extremely passionate women, First Amendment lawyers, graffiti installations, and publicity stunts, all invading New York City, the film aimed to raise awareness of and protest the extremely hypocritical laws that govern public “nudity.” They also intended to promote gender equality, legally and culturally, in the U.S.A.

Many Celebrities Have Jumped On Board With This Campaign

Keira Knightley, Madonna, Miley Cyrus, Cara Delevingne, and Scout Willis are just a few of the female celebrities that are openly supporting this cause.
Scout Willis, daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, raised a lot of awareness for the campaign when she walked around New York City topless for a day. She explained in a post on XOjane that she had been removed from Instagram and that she was no longer welcome in their community after she had posted a picture of a sweatshirt that had a picture of two bare-chested women.
scout-willis
She issued a statement saying:
“I didn’t choose my public life, but it did give me a platform to help make body politics newsworthy. Matters like the taboo of the nipple in the 21st century, public breastfeeding, slut shaming, fat shaming, breast cancer awareness, body positivity, gender inequality, and censorship have found their way into mainstream discussion.
But unfortunately the emphasis in the press has been on sensationalizing my breasts, chiefly in terms of my family. There are also some people who would criticize my choice to relate nipples with equality at all. To me, nipples seem to be at the very heart of the issue. In the 1930s, men’s nipples were just as provocative, shameful, and taboo as women’s are now, and men were protesting in much the same way. In 1930, four men went topless to Coney Island and were arrested. In 1935, a flash mob of topless men descended upon Atlantic City, 42 of whom were arrested. Men fought and they were heard, changing not only laws, but social consciousness. And by 1936, men’s bare chests were accepted as the norm.
So why is it that 80 years later women can’t seem to achieve the same for their chests? Why can’t a mother proudly breastfeed her child in public without feeling sexualized? Why is a 17-year-old girl being asked to leave her own prom because a group of fathers find her too provocative? Why should I feel overly exposed because I choose not to wear a bra? Why would it be okay with Instagram and Facebook to allow photos of a cancer survivor who has had a double mastectomy and is without areolas but ‘photos with fully exposed breasts, particularly if they’re unaffected by surgery, don’t follow Instagram’s Community Guidelines.'”
Scout makes some very good points here, and the issue is something that not only women, but men too, should consider more often.
Instagram recently updated their nude policy and issued this statement:
“We know that there are times when people might want to share nude images that are artistic or creative in nature, but for a variety of reasons, we don’t allow nudity on Instagram. This includes photos, videos, and some digitally-created content that show sexual intercourse, genitals, and close-ups of fully-nude buttocks. It also includes some photos of female nipples, but photos of post-mastectomy scarring and women actively breastfeeding are allowed. Nudity in photos of paintings and sculptures is OK, too.”

Millions Of Genetically Modified Mosquitoes Set To Be Released: This Is Why It’s A Problem

by .http://www.collective-evolution.com/2015/06/12/millions-of-genetically-modified-mosquitoes-set-to-be-released-in-florida-heres-why-we-should-question-this/
Aedes aegypti
Millions of genetically modified mosquitoes might soon be released in Florida. The biotech company Oxitec and the Florida Keys Mosquito Control District (FKMCD) are moving ahead with their plan to introduce these insects into the area to, according to them, help stop the spread of multiple tropical diseases.
One of the diseases is called Chikungunya, another is dengue, and both are spread by Aedes mosquitoes. An infection with Chikungunya can lead to fever and joint pain which is sometimes severe, but rarely causes death. In 2014, only 11 individuals actually contracted this disease in Florida, so it makes one wonder if this type of “tinkering with nature” is really necessary? (source)
When it comes to the dengue virus, severe cases may progress into dengue hemorrhagic fever, complications from which may eventually result in death. Over 100 million cases of dengue occur every year, but according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), it is rare to find a case of it in the United States.
The mosquitoes released would all be male, and are genetically modified to carry a “genetic kill switch.” This means that when they mate with wild female mosquitoes, the “kill switch” gene is passed on to the offspring and therefore cannot survive.

Millions Of Genetically Modified Insects Have Already Been Released

Oxitec has already released a large number of GM olive flies that were used to kill off wild pests that damage crops. In the Cayman Islands, 3 million GM mosquitoes were released, and in this case over 90 percent of the original natural native mosquito population was suppressed. The same results were also seen in Brazil. (source)
Supporters of the GM insects, like Oxitec, claim that those who oppose the idea are simply fear mongering. This is currently the same response from the big biotech giants to opposers of genetically modified foods.

Concerns With This Approach

There are various concerns, such as, what happens if someone receives a bite from one of these mosquitoes?
“Will their GM DNA be injected into your arm or leg? Oxitec has counteracted this objection by stating they only plan to release male mosquitoes, which don’t bite. This again sounds good in theory… but in reality, sorting millions of insects according to sex is no small feat. And even FKMCD notes that although ‘every effort is made to release only males,’ Oxitec trials show that .03 percent of the mosquitoes released are female” -Dr. Joseph Mercola (source)
If you think about it, with millions of mosquitoes released, we are still talking about thousands of mosquitoes that can bite. Estimates of genetically modified insects that have been released into the environment are between 50-100 million. What about the environmental health impacts report? Again, what about the synthetic DNA from the bites? Who is tracking all of this stuff, and how exactly do you track it? Why are we just assuming everything is okay, without any evidence to back it up?
The potential exists for these genes, which hop from one place to another, to infect human blood by finding entry through skin lesions or inhaled dust. Such transmission could potentially wreak havoc with the human genome by creating “insertion mutations” and other unpredictable types of DNA damage. (source)
According to Alfred Handler, a geneticist at the Agriculture Department in Hawaii, mosquitoes can develop resistance to the lethal gene and might then be released inadvertently. (source)
Todd Shelly, an entomologist for the Agriculture Department in Hawaii, said 3.5 percent of the insects in a laboratory test survived to adulthood, despite presumably carrying the lethal gene. (source)
Another factor to consider is this:
“Tetracycline and other antibiotics are now showing up in the environment, in soil and surface water samples. These GM mosquitoes were designed to die in the absence of tetracycline (which is introduced in the lab in order to keep them alive long enough to breed). They were designed this way assuming they would NOT have access to that drug in the wild. With tetracycline exposure (for example, in a lake) these mutant insects could actually thrive in the wild, potentially creating a nightmarish scenario.” (source)
Dr Helen Wallace, director of GeneWatch UK, warned about the GM fruit flies that were released a couple of years ago:
“Releasing Oxite’s GM fruit flies is a deeply flawed approach to reducing numbers of these pests, because large numbers of their offspring will die as maggots in the fruit. Not only does this fail to protect the crop, millions of GM fruit fly maggots will enter the food chain where they could pose risks to human health and the environment. Oxitec’s experiments should not go ahead until rules for safety testing and plans for labelling and segregation of contaminated fruits have been thoroughly debated and assessed. If these issues are ignored, growers could suffer serious impacts on the market for their crops.” (source)
It’s also important to note that there is there is no specific regulatory process for GM insects anywhere in the world.
Wallace went on to state that:
“Regulatory decisions on GM insects in Europe and around the world are being biased by corporate interests as the UK biotech company Oxitec has infiltrated decision-making processes around the world. The company has close links to the multinational pesticide and seed company, Syngenta. Oxitec has already made large-scale open releases of GM mosquitoes in the Cayman Islands, Malaysia and Brazil and is developing GM agricultural pests, jointly with Syngenta.” (source)(source)
“The public will be shocked to learn that GM insects can be released into the environment without any proper oversight. Conflicts of interest should be removed from all decision making processes to ensure the public have a proper say about these plans” – Dr Helen Wallace, Director of GeneWatch UK (source)
Environmental NGOs like Greenpeace suggest that GM insects could have unintended and wide ranging impacts on the environment and human health due to the complexity of ecosystems and the high number of unknown factors which make risk assessment difficult. These companies have raised a number of concerns which include: (source)
  • New insects or diseases may fill ecological niche left by the insects suppressed or replaced, possibly resulting in new public health or agricultural problems
  • The new genes engineered into the insects may jump into other species, a process called horizontal transfer, causing unintended consequences to the ecosystem
  • Releases would be impossible to monitor and irreversible, as would any damage done to the environment
A briefing done by these organizations also shows that Oxitec is trying to influence regulatory processes for GM insects, that they: (source)
  • Don’t want to be liable for any complications
  • Try to avoid any regulation of GM agricultural pests on crops appearing in the food chain
  • Exclude important issues from risk assessments, like the impact on human health
  • Release of large amounts of GM insects prior to regulations
  • Undermining the requirement to obtain informed consent for experiments involving insect species which transmit disease

Monsanto Now Billing Itself as a “Sustainable Agriculture Company”

But is anyone really buying this?


Photo: BizJournals.com
When you read headlines like these, you may be confused. Should you get angry, or laugh? Monsanto as a sustainable agriculture company? Monsanto truly has decided to market itself as a ‘sustainable agriculture’ company despite spending billions to provide the world with destructive, carcinogenic chemicals.
You can see Monsanto’s propaganda piece here. The biotech giant also says that it aims to “empower” farmers around the world, while arguably leading to mass farmer suicides taking place all throughout India. What’s more, Monsanto is completely wreckinging the organic farmer’s industry in the US. As far as ‘empowering’ farmers, nearly 300,000 have sued Monsanto for contaminating their seed.
And the resistance against Monsanto doesn’t stop (nor even start) at the organic farmer. Even top scientists are speaking out against GMOs at large. A recent example can be seen with former senior scientist from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). He has studied the impacts of altered crops on the environment for years, and exposes the genetically modified world and the ‘pesticide treadmill’ that biotech has us all running on.
The former professor states that GE crops provide no significant increase in crop yields, but do pose several other major concerns: namely cross-pollination of non-GM species, and negative impacts to the environment. He calls these ‘side effects’ of broken biotech promises.
And lest not forget the corporate atrocities of Monsanto such as PCBs, dioxin, Agent Orange, or their latest chemical concoction which is a combination of cancer-causing glyphosate and dicamba.
I guess we’re supposed to forget how unsustainable Monsanto’s business practices are as they sue competitors. The corporate seed monopolizer is still dwarfing small farmers.
Monsanto also tried to buy out another pesticide pusher, Syngenta, with a $45 billion offer, which Syngenta refused – but yes, they are all about “empowering farmers.” Though their aim is to make sure that every country is over-run with genetically modified crops and the chemicals that they sell to grow them.
With Monsanto’s $45 million bid for Syngenta, it shows exactly what kind of agriculture they are aiming to practice, and it is anything but sustainable.
