Trespassing is when you break into an empty federal building. What he did went way beyond trespassing. Like I said, the charge was obstruction of a federal proceeding and 41 months seems about right.
When government officials can't do their job because of you, things get very serious very fast and feds don't play around. Just ask Martha Stewart, formerly inmate #55170-054, who made the mistake of sending feds on a wild goose chase.
The obstructing federal proceedings is just a bullshit charge they use to make it sound worse. My biggest issue on these riot charges is how you guys yell about how bad it was but then ignore the george floyd riots. You guys only care about jan 6th because it is an example of why you dont mess with the federal governemnt in dc.
Plenty of people went to jail after the George Floyd riots. Unlike right-wingers, I'm not obsessed by setting criminals free.
How many people went to prison for George floyd riots vs jan 6th? For jan 6ht I think its 500 or so have gotten prison sentences, and George floyd they didnt do much convictions. Shouldnt they be targeting a lot more for the group that did an actual insurrection in CHAZ?
I have no idea how many went to prison.
If you think the feds should have targeted CHAZ a lot more, blame the idiot who was in charge of the feds at the time.
From what I can find, 467 or so jan 6th people got prison time and the only number I can find is 70 george floyd rioters have gotten prison time. Do you get how uneven that is and those numbers should be flipped if not more?
If you think more people should be in prison after the George Floyd riots, then name the people who should be in prison but aren't.
Let me get this straight, there were something like 25 people killed and billions of dollars in damages over months, and you think there should be 4x more people in prison from jan 6th?
The problem is they didnt prosecute people or actually do any real investigations.
Most of those 25 were shot by LEOs. Are you saying LEOs should be in prison?
You haven't named anyone who you think escaped justice, and there's a reason. It's much harder to identify the violent George Floyd rioters than the Jan 6 rioters.
Here's a hint to future rioters: if you don't want to go to prison, then don't riot inside a building that has among the heaviest surveillance in America. And turn off the selfie cams during the actual law-breaking.
I dont think that is right, how many were killed by police.
You haven’t named anyone who you think escaped justice, and there’s a reason.
Raz Simone. Literally he is on video handing out gun(s) to protect the area he was the loose leader of. The area they had overthrown the police and government.
I dont think you actually know what you are talking about. In Oregon, the state police stopped helping out portland because they were not prosecuting people. But I guess it has to do with surveillance.
Handing someone a gun is not a crime.
But you're right, I should have said that half of the people were shot by LEOs, store owners, or nutjobs like Kyle Rittenhouse.
Almost none of the deaths linked to the 2020 protests were caused by protesters.
No, I don't see why the numbers should be different. The Jan 6 riots and George Floyd riots were not the same. Different people, different places, different crimes, different evidence.
as someone excited to see police precincts burn, I have to reluctantly agree a bit. riots are fair play as far as I'm concerned, and having the libs criminalize this shit feels like another knife in the back.
Its just uneven justice. People will on one hand complain about how many people are in prison, and then cheer a multi year sentence for breaking a window at the special people place of work.
