[Couchpotato]

“A man with central Illinois ties was found guilty of conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding and civil disorder by a federal judge on Wednesday, following his involvement in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, according to the Associated Press.

Donovan Crowl, who graduated from Bushnell-Prairie City High School in 1988, was at the Jan. 6 attack in paramilitary gear, marching with a group of Ohio members of the Oath Keepers, a right-wing militia group. At the time of his arrest, Crowl lived in Woodstock, Ohio.”

Very good.

Another victory for democracy.

Another defeat for the illiberal anti-democratic right.

Why are the ties to central Illinois relevant?

Is there a reason Democrats INSIST on calling our REPUBLIC a "Democracy"?? I've never really understood the Democrat mind

We're not really a Democracy. Any country that prosecutes its citizens for exercising their freedom of assembly, redress of grievances, and the free discussion by which its leaders are elected, is not really a Democracy. The same ones who parrot "Muh Democracy" don't even want to discuss questioning the results of the 2020 election. They view the January 6 protest as being an "insurrection", and would rather that you just shut up and accept the election results, no matter how flawed or corrupt it was.

We are a constitutional republic.

I wish! All traitors should be shot!

You gonna be the one deciding who the traitors are, and pulling the trigger?

Well aren't you a brave little sonofabitch.

 

[john doe 101]

Every Democrat?

Even I think a FEW are salvageable

We weren't tearing apart the Capitol like a bunch of wild chimps, shithead.

Lots of chimp trumpanzees getting nice long sentences....5, 6 years of late. Try it again, coward. I don't think the police will treat you as nice this time.

Yeah, you were: just a bunch of wild chimps.

Now democrats are going after our veterans. They have no shame,

Veterans get no pass when they attack the capitol.

You cannot stop citizens from protecting any other citizens in violent trouble. And that is happening for some years now and growing. Never protect an authoritarian. No matter which political view. Let their bodies die and decay if needing help.

No, it looks like Trump-appointed judges are finding and convicting them without any help from me.

You spelled Republicans wrong.

DoJ is now appealing some of those sentences, asking for longer.

What "attack"? If they started putting people in prison for "civil disorder" the freaking streets would be empty.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

J6 was an insurgent riot not just 'civil disorder.'

 

[lennypartiv]

Oh my! ties to central Illinois? That's horrible you stinking pile.

Well it is a blue state. Why is the blue state of Illinois letting their people do this?

 

[whitehall]

J6 was an insurgent riot not just 'civil disorder.'

It isn't alleged that the guy participated in an attack. He is charged with "civil disobedience". I guess there is a good kind of "civil disobedience and a bad kind of civil disobedience depending on which party you belong to. Shooting and killing an unarmed Veteran who posed no threat might be a positive thing depending on which party the dead person belonged to.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

whitehall, Ashlii was warned to back off and not come through window into the chamber: she, like you, knew better and paid for it.

The veteran knew better yet did it, and he paid the price.

What you fools do not understand is that you do not, and never will, run this country you way.

Bye traitor.

When rightwing domestic terrorists commit acts of treason, as in this case, they have in fact violated their oaths.
