'No treason or sedition charges for January 6 rioters'...Does That Mean 'Insurrection' Is a MISDEMEANOR?

[miketx]

You've seen the picture of the violence and destruction that took place, so you guys continuing to lie about what happened that day makes you just as dishonest and dishonorable as the left claiming BLM riots were mostly peaceful. That aside, nobody present in the Capitol that day literally committed an act of treason or sedition. It's a great talking point for TDS sufferers, but at most, these people are guilty of vandalism and rioting and I suspect that is how this will end.

Don't forget the murder committed by the police. That was dim high point, huh?

YES, I am COMPLETELY making fun of all the Democrat Political Theater Actors within the Democrat party and all of their surrogate snowflake Drama Queens who sadly attempted to proclaim unarmed citizens incited into entering the Capitol - after Capitol police were nice enough to move barricades, open doors for them, and guide them through the Capitol - where they wandered around, took Selfies, and 'took souvenirs' constituted an 'Insurrection', an attempt to 'overthrow the US govt'.




The number of people who have been charged in connection with the January 6th riot at the Capitol Building has now grown to over 500. They are all facing a variety of charges ranging from disturbing the peace to vandalism, with a smaller number facing assault raps. from all of these proceedings. Why has nobody been charged with sedition or treason?


The events of January 6th were a travesty and the actions of many who broke into the building were clearly criminal.

Probably the biggest treason no one has been charged with Treason despite Democrats and snowflakes falsely claiming 1/6 was an attempted 'Insurrection' is because they are STUPID / IGNORANT.

"Treason isn’t typically understood to include “all enemies foreign or domestic.” It refers to actual warfare, which takes place between countries or organized subsets of countries in the case of civil war. Those are the “enemies” that come to mind when you throw around words like treason. If a couple of hundred people throwing bottles at the police and breaking into a building qualifies as war, then pretty much every BLM riot over the last couple of years was an act of war. And since they frequently attacked police stations and the police themselves – part of the executive branch of government – then they were all traitors too."

Sedition may be another matter, though. Seditious Conspiracy, as defined by code, covers a lot of territory. It begins by describing a situation where “two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States.” While the rioters were, at least in some cases, working in concert with each other, their apparent goal was to prevent the certification of the 2020 election results. In the end, the INTENT is the bottom line, and the intent was NOT to 'overthrow the govt'.
** Immediately after the events of 1/6 Speaker Pelosi publicly condemned the event and declared it was an attempt to prevent the election from being certified.

The actions of those who actively participated in the 1/6 event and entered the Capitol do not meet the definitions of Treason, Conspiracy.

So American citizens have been tracked down, arrested, and incarcerated for 6 months without bail for 'trespassing', 'disturbing the peace', and 'vandalism' while Democrats and snowflake Drama Queens have been screaming how they attempted an 'insurrection' and sought to 'overthrow the Govt', which the DOJ now shows it disagrees with and as the acts on 1/6 do not rise to that level.

Furthermore, several legal experts have reportedly claimed Americans who participated in the 1/6 event, who have been arrested, and who have been held as long as 6 Months without bail could possibly have a legal case against the Capitol Police and / or DOJ based on the fact that 'disturbing the peace' and even 'vandalism' do NOT merit incarceration without being allowed bail for 6 MONTHS! Their Constitutional Rights to a speedy trial, it has also been suggested, has been violated as the DOJ has intentionally 'slow walked' their cases.

THAT would be funny / ironic as hell - the DOJ has slow-walked their cases to 'punish' them, and those arrested wind up making money from suing the DOJ for violating their Constitutionl and civil rights.

HALF of the people charged so far have been found Not Guilty on all charges, and all the charges are things like disrupting official proceedings, or "parading" and other petty stuff.

I'm going to call bullshit on your claim. I think you meant

Of the 70-plus people who have been sentenced, fewer than half have received prison time.

Liar.

And only 1/10th have been sentenced.

There are more than 700 people who have been arrested for crimes tied to the assault on the Capitol and investigations are still ongoing, and roughly one-tenth of those — 71 — have been sentenced as of Jan. 1.

The bulk of the sentences to date have been for relatively low-level offenses. The most common charge pleaded to, by far, is illegally parading or demonstrating in the Capitol

On several occasions judges have expressed misgivings about whether the actual criminal charge matches the misdeeds of the defendant.

You see, they don't to spend any money or go to trial. If these people will plea guilty to a lesser charge, good enough, because we weren't trying to put them all away for 10 years anyways really. 6 months will do. And a record.

Of the 70-plus people who have been sentenced, fewer than half have received prison time for their actions in the days surrounding the riot.

I think this is where you go the "fewer than half" line.

How many BLM Morons are being sentenced? Not that was a real Nationwide insurrection planned by The DemNazis and DNC.

Anyone do anything about it.

 

[maybelooking]

No matter what happens to those mislead idiots. Storming our capital was WRONG.

The only thing that was wrong is that it wasn't 150000 of them.

 

[WTH_Progs?]

Oh MY!.................The USA has nukes & they're up everyone's data but OMG!, Pelosi couldn't prevent 725 people mostly bystanders from an insurrection and the world's worst catastrophe since Pearl Harbor. Tomorrow is an important anniversary, perhaps more important than Christmas going forward.

Move aside 9-11 & 12-7, there's a new sheriff in town and it's 1-6, the day we nearly lost our democracy.

Actually, the people sentenced for those riots got longer sentences than the Jan 6 rioters. They shouldn't have. The insurrectionists should have been hung. Or at least the leader of the attempted coup should have been. ******* traitor. And Hannity begged him to call it off. He refused.

Many of the judges on D.C.’s federal bench have advocated for stiff sentences in most cases on the grounds that breaching the Capitol was an unconscionable crime against American democracy. And they’ve overwhelmingly rejected comparisons lodged by accused rioters that the violence of Jan. 6 is akin to the unrest that plagued Portland, Ore., and other American cities alongside last year’s racial justice protests.

On Friday, McFadden said federal prosecutors had undercut themselves on Jan. 6 prosecutions by doing little to impose legal consequences for those who rioted during the racial-justice protests last year.

“I think the U.S. attorney would have more credibility if it was even-handed in its concern about riots and mobs in this city,” he said during another sentencing hearing, according to The Associated Press.

McFadden, who was appointed by former President Donald Trump, appears to be a lone voice, for now, on the D.C. bench. Several judges have expressed sentiment similar to Chutkan’s: that those who joined the Jan. 6 mob helped overwhelm police and stretch resources in a way that aided the violent extremists to threaten the transfer of power.

“What happened … was nothing less than a violent mob trying to prevent the orderly, peaceful transfer of power as part of an election,” said Chutkan, “That mob was trying to overthrow the government. … That is no mere protest.”

Judge Emmet Sullivan, lamented last week that during the events of Jan. 6, a number of ordinary, law-abiding Americans “morphed into terrorists.”

At sentencing hearings last week, Judge James Boasberg made clear he agreed that those who remained nonviolent on Jan. 6 effectively encouraged the violence.

Everyone knows there was no insurrection. There are only crazies who want to believe in one because of their unrelenting HATE.

That's called moving the goalpost.

What will you say if he's found guilty? The evidence is pretty powerful. You believe that guy when he says the government is lying? Of course you do.

Oh, you'll throw this guy under the bus for sure. He's an arab.

We'll have to see won't we? In this country we are still innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Right?
