Quote from: neurosis on January 08, 2024, 06:53 AMThere are Federal sentencing guidelines that they have to adhere to *but* I'm sure that the goal was to make the charges and  penalties harsh enough that this never happens again.


Don't forget also that many of the J6 protesters were COMPLETELY denied their basic rights when they were held indefinitely without being charged with any crimes, and many were delayed or denied legal counsel altogether for MONTHS.

I'm not giving the violent ones a pass either, but it's obvious to even the most casual observer that there is a two-tiered justice system that is 100% politically motivated.

THAT is the real problem IMO.  :yes:

Since a few got several years, like this guy I assume some got very little to no jail time?

Yes, that is a problem. Ask literally anyone who doesn't have enough money to defend themselves in Federal court.

The only point I've been trying to make through five pages of dissecting crimes committed on Jan 6th in an effort to defend a comment I made on page 1, and I know this isn't my crowd :D  is that Jan 6th wasn't a guided tour of the capitol as Tucker's video suggests, and there were people there who did deserve what they got.

Here is a still photo of Shaman guy from the video.
Why aren't the two cops behind him arresting him?
The only thing he is 'armed' with is an American flag.

Here are two more cops within arm's reach of him, yet he walks right by.


Maybe not a 'guided tour' per se, but if he were breaking the law any number of police officers could have arrested him on the spot, yet they didn't.

So there is plenty of exaggerating going on from both sides of this for sure... :yes:

Yet it was for most. For instance Jacob Chansley, or who libtards call the QAnon Shaman. Sentenced to over 3 years in prison and 3 years of supervised release plus $100 fine. He was literally given a guided tour, with hugs, prayers, and handshakes with police officers. Is there any video of him damaging or fighting? He and many others were persuaded into pleading guilty by the trash they had for representation and now regret it.

Tucker Carlson was flat out lying. He wasn't exaggerating.  :lol:

Only one state (AZ) has done a forensic audit of their 2020 mail in ballots
There was only one authorized ballot, yet they found 10 different ballot styles that were
counted for a total on 200K+ forgeries, well beyond Biden's margin of victory
All attempts to bring this to court failed as the courts repeatedly said they had no standing to
review such matters

Was his intended goal when he entered the Capitol to obstruct an official proceeding? Meaning, to prevent the certification of the election? Or was he just there to sight see?

Him being in the crowd of the first 30 people to breach the building probably didn't work in his favor.

Maybe if you read the Statement of Offense, agree with it or not, you'd have a better idea of why he was sentenced the way that he was.

Quote from: neurosis on January 08, 2024, 07:21 AMI mean, it was a pretty big deal.
No, it wasn't. And that's the rub.

The REPUBLIC was in NO danger that day... at least no danger from outsiders. There's the usual danger to our REPUBLIC every fucking day congress meets, but that's a different story.

I get it... #OrangeManBad  #MeanTweets. I find him personally repugnant in SO many ways. But to give Bill Clinto a pass for his serial rapist behavior, drug running in Arkansas, and a litany of other legitimate sins, then to excoriate Trump because he's crass. That's just pure unadulterated bovine excrement.

He's probably wondering why he didn't just do Gay Porn in the Senate Chamber.... would have got off with a warning.
