Don't think because nobody started shooting that the show isn't real. The people involved are all posers and punks so they most likely would not have shot. During the supposed fight in the ally scene, several things occurred to me. One, the so called Prez of the Sin Mod was shown clearly not involved in the fight. Two, I was an office in a 1%er Club here in Dago. We had a 1%er Council meeting at a local AMVETS. It was all prearranged and everyone had pledged their best behavoir. Well the San Diego PD and Sherriff's Dept got wind of the meeting and we had 20 cruisers plus the SWAT van and team outside screaming at us to come out over bullhorns. Once outside we got rousted and sent down the road in a dozen different directions depending on patch. Pretty much each of us had our own cop escort us to our bikes and tell us which way to ride. On Devils Ride the other night, you have one cruiser come upon two clubs having at it in an alley in Logan Barrio and they don't call for back-up. They don't get out of the cruiser. They simply inform the people on the scene to clear the ally ? Bullchit Bullchit Bullchit. That ain't LE in Dago. It's the wild west out here with the cops. One year a few years back of the total number of handgun deaths, more than 70% of them were by cops. They shot a crazy old man with a stick, they shot a former athelete who was doped up but had no weapons. Basically if they felt in any way justified, they pull and shoot. So the idea that they would send one cruiser for a report of two gangs in an ally fighting ? To this day if I get pulled over in Dago county by any LEO I make sure he can see my hands at all times.
As to the moonshiners, to prosecute the people on the screen for their actions, you'd have to prove that they actually made moonshine and not just dummied it up for the camera. No way of knowing what's in the still or jugs without having it in evidence and testing it. I think the cops already know who makes shine and who doesn't. It's simply cat and mouse as to where they are making it and then trying to catch them in the process or delivering it. And I'll say this for what it's worth. I can't remember their names, but if you want to walk up to the fellow who dropped that hog on the run from a 100 yards and tell him to his face that he's a phony, can I please watch ?
