Ex-Proud Boys organizer sentenced to 17 years in prison for plot to keep Trump in power

[C_Clayton_Jones]

You can't do more than five or ten years these days for violent felonies but this guy gets 17 years for a "plot"? Didn't senator Schumer organize a plot to intimidate and encourage the assassinations of Supreme Court Justices?

Very good.

Another victory for democracy.

A former organizer of the far-right Proud Boys extremist group was sentenced on Thursday to 17 years in prison for spearheading an attack on the U.S. Capitol to prevent the peaceful transfer of power from Donald Trump to Joe Biden after the 2020 presidential election.
Federal prosecutors had recommended a 33-year prison sentence for Joseph Biggs, who helped lead dozens of Proud Boys members and associates in marching to the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Biggs and other Proud Boys joined the mob that broke through police lines and forced lawmakers to flee, disrupting the joint session of Congress for certifying the electoral victory by Biden, a Democrat.

A slap on the wrist. The insurrectionist should have received 30 years. But at least his reasonable future is wiped out; good riddance! Bigly!!!

 

[Arlette]

He found out

 

[Zincwarrior]

That's ridiculous.

Proud Boys, really? SMH.

Ain't nothin' but a bunch of homo-erotic dorks that like to brawl with ANTIFA.

Them dudes couldn't come up with a plot, they worry too much about names of cereal.

The jury disagreed.

Trump ruins lives

 

[Lord Long Rod]

I wonder when they will get around to sentencing the perps for the attempted rape of AOC.

He got a good deal. Dems wanted 30 years.

Well, dems control all. Reps never did anything meaningful to save America. So that's the score. It is survival mode behind enemy lines.

If I was at t 1.6, I'd be locked up too. I'd go in to photograph it. Would have no idea I would be tracked down for taking photos. Wouldn't you go in for a selfie or a photos?

These the guys that Trump told to 'stand by'?

17 years will become 7 years which is a short stint.

Not for federal time. I think the maximum reduction with good behavior is 15%.

So 14 1/2? That's way more than a nickle.

 

[initforme]

Well 15 percent off is still a short time.

 

[Freedomisneverfree]

But YET the rioters of George Floyd destroy millions, none punished, Kamala creating a bail fund to get them back out on the street to RIOT more, encouraging them to do it, the rioter steal millions from companies and it will years for them to recover. And then they give the rioters $4.7 Million so thusly rewarding them for their crimes.

So no punishment for them, but 17 years for what this guy did.

Its 14 and half years in prison.

No one would call that a short time.

Seditious conspiracy is a very serious crime.

Well I would never participate in a march for any national cause. Not worth it.

Yup. They were looking for a fight. Trump riled them up and sent them toward the capitol.

Then watched TV.

 

[initforme]

15 years isn't that much.

 

[Skylar]

15 years isn't that much.

He's in his 30s. He won't be out until his 50s. That's a long fucking time in federal prison.
