Law Trump just pardoned 1.5k rioters and Proud Boys.....

[scoopj]

Wait he was sentenced to six months but only released when pardoned?

I think his trial was in the last 6 months.

 

[idrankyourbeer]

So he waited for his pardon to reoffend?

yep. not that it matters, he's still a convicted felon with a gun. he'd be heading to a medium security prison for that anyways.

oh wait, i just reread that and he was in prison when he got released from the pardon. he didn't even make it a week without reoffending. turns out he was sentenced months ago, not released. i got that mixed up.

Some people went from "We back the Blue!!!!" to "Yeehaw, *uck the law!" Reeeeeeaaaaaalllll quick.

Some of these people were railroaded and some of them absolutely deserved the long sentences they got. Typically, potus waits until the end of their term to pardon criminals, trump must not be planning to stay in office all four years.

Hopefully, this leads to some good proud boy-antifa brawls

It's been awhile since I looked through them. But getting multiple years for trespassing is overdoing it. Even some of the violent convictions got blown up a bit, with people getting 10+ year, some without any priors.

Look, if you don't think any of these convictions were politically motivated, ok. We don't agree, but I think I get what your position is. My thinking is there's a mixed bag here, and I dont think blanket pardons or convictions is the best way to do it.

Can you point to one example that you think was egregious?

Who do you think got railroaded?

• BLM literally locked the doors to a police precinct and tried to burn it down with police officers inside during the "racial reckoning" the left supported. Nobody cares about them pretending to be horrified at cops being assaulted.

  Who supported the burning down of the police station?

Pardoned January 6 rioter faces unresolved charges of soliciting a minor

Andrew Taake, 36, assailed police with bear spray at the US Capitol and in 2016 was charged with a third-degree felony

Tracking these goofs who got off is going to be fun.

No shit. It has only been like 5 days, and we got one that got arrested again one day out, and another guy who decided not to comply with Police Officers and paid for it with his life.

It is going to be like those so many days until the last accident signs you see at big warehouses or businesses that manufacture goods.

We are now at 2 days since a pardoned J'6ers has broken the law again.

If you see the Camp Auschwitz T-shirt guy out in the wild, give him a wide berth, the J'6ers are criminals who did not seem to learn their lesson.

Funny how you dishonestly conflate the words protest and riot to suit the needs of your narrative, isn't it?

Did it amuse you.

Distinction without a difference.

 

[SuperAlly]

no. i am all about law and order. if some blm protester had a gun on him and started resisting arrest and fucking around, then i ain't gonna lose no sleep over it after he finds out. he shouldn't have done that. it was the wrong thing to do.

see how easy that is for me to say when i'm not in a cult? you see, i didn't have to twist myself into a pretzel while performing olympic level mental gymnastics to pull that one out either!

Good for you.

I wrongly categorised you with the others on here who are completely driven by their politics and so able to hold 2 contradictory views like Andy Capp just demonstrated he would.

Good to see you are reasonable.

That's an interesting way of saying you don't know shit about people you criticize. I agree with him and that's why I liked his post (before this comment of yours). That you assume otherwise is down to poor reading comprehension, confirmation bias, and bad reasoning--or you've been pwnt so badly you look desperately for any way to try to score points.

Funny how you respond to evidence of dishonesty with more dishonesty, isn't it?

Who do you think got railroaded?

The people getting 4-5 years for being there. The ones that attacked cops and destroyed shit deserved their time. I don’t know names. Hell, Enrique tario got 20+ years and he wasn’t even in the state at the time. Yeah, I hate all the j6 fucks and their stupid party they had, but every one of them got hammered while people getting arrested for multiple riots on the left had all their charges dropped in many areas and even had kamala donating to bond them out, so I would say that this was very politically motivated and somewhat symbolic as well.

You wrote pwnt as a full grown adult I assume* and think anyone will subsequently take anything you say seriously.

* although like you say we shouldn't assume and maybe you are the child you act like.

You think Tario was unjustly convicted? What do you know about the case that would make you say that? Are you unaware that he planned violence and coordinated with those on the ground?

What makes you say they were hammered? Is it wrong to make an example of those who tried to prevent the peaceful transfer of power?

I haven’t found anyone that was convicted of simply trespassing that was given that long of a sentence. The only one close was the Chansley (shaman guy) and he got 41 months for obstructing an official proceeding which is a felony.

Pwned

Tarrio was part of the conspiracy, he didn't have to be there, and what I'm saying is that the group had bullhorns ready to direct rally goers to the Capitol and were among the first to break through the barricades and assault the police.

Now clear it up for me if you're suggesting the folks, like Tarrio, that were convicted of Seditious Conspiracy and for the premeditated and violent actions I described above should have been pardoned?

I'm suggesting that people were overcharged and the previous post I replied to said pardoning proud boys shouldn't happen - I don't like blanket statements without qualilfers. If Tarrio actually planned an attack then he probably shouldn't be pardoned; although 20 years seems a bit extreme.

 

[PainIsLIfe]

That’s why he was charged with seditious conspiracy and not outright sedition. He planned an armed overthrow of the government on that day, but just prior to Jan 6, was arrested in DC for burning a BLM banner at a church and found with high capacity magazines bearing the Proud Boys insignia. As part of this whole incident, he was ordered to leave DC. That’s why he wasn’t there, he would have been otherwise.

Thus, he was charged with planning sedition, but not outright sedition itself because by mere happenstance he couldn’t end up being there. People like to paint Jan 6 as some protest that got out of hand, but Tarrio told us what it was: “Make no mistake, we did this.”

If it was a planned armed insurrection then why didn't the proud boys have weapons? Like I said, if he actually did that then no pardon, but I know murderers that didn't pull 20 years.
