This is pretty infuriating. The guy does take some blame, he joined a fed group lol. These show trials are mostly about showing what any sort of dissent will get you. Showing this duplicity, front and center, let’s you know the state truly runs the show.

Ex-soldier with Jan. 6 ties gets 7 years prison in Tampa case

Proud Boys’ Tarrio guilty of Jan. 6 seditious conspiracy
"WASHINGTON (AP) — Former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio and three other members of the far-right extremist group were convicted Thursday of a plot to attack the U.S. Capitol in a desperate bid to keep Donald Trump in power after the Republican lost the 2020 presidential election.
A jury in Washington, D.C., found Tarrio and three lieutenants guilty of seditious conspiracy after hearing from dozens of witnesses over more than three months in one of the most serious cases brought in the stunning attack that unfolded on Jan. 6, 2021, as the world watched on live TV."

Nice, so you're admitting Trump and the Proud Boys are guilty, got caught, and are stupid? You'll find no argument from me.

lmao. Someone didn't watch all the Jan 6 committee hearings and it shows.
re: "explicit" plans to storm the capitol. Actions speak louder than words because they succeeded and were on camera the whole time. The "plans" may have not been compromised but they looked pretty organized to me. Hell, many of the rioters had T-shirts made.
re: "no plan to disrupt the election". So chanting Hang Mike Pence! repeatedly on camera doesn't negate this claim?
re: no explicit orders "that day". I guess Trump and Giuliani riling up the mob down the street from the capitol and telling them to Fight like Hell! doesn't count?
I don't know who Harrison Smith is but maybe we finally found Dropper's true identity

Hello, Sir Moderator. What does any of this have to do with Vietnam?
Its always trump and proud boys being bashed but actual terrorists like Black lives matter and antifa who have actual blood on their hands are given a pass. The only plus side to all of this was when the soy tears filled the streets when Kyle Rittenhouse was not guilty haha. If it was an actual attack on the goverment and not a sham why did they let everyone out of jail so quickly? If you are actually trying to break into the white house to cause harm and its real you don't get police escorts showing you around the fucking place and you would do decades in jail at least. Trump has been out of office for awhile now and the butthurt remains and the media is just angry they actually have to put in some effort now instead of spouting the same trump rhetoric.
When we had " the summer of love pt II" and the riots following the Floyd incident we had multiple occasions where an element of the crowd literally attacked Federal Buildings in their city, with on camera non "media coverage". This included attempts to block entrances/exits in conjunction with setting these entrances on fire. Was this explicit anti government actions labeled as attacks and the perpetrators detained and arrested? No.
This happened night after night in some locations but was explained away as mostly peaceful.
What is wrong with the media that they don't cover such actions as violent anti-government attacks but do push the Jan 6 incident? It's almost as if they were choosing sides, but we all know that isn't possible in America, 'cause the Media sanctioned view is always the true one.

It’ll be interesting to see what kind of sentence Tarrio gets.

People are actually still talking about January 6th?? LOL reason #2,543,769 I don't watch the news or vote.
HOW does this affect YOUR life, at all? Just more trying to divide us.

how does a woman elsewhere in the country having an abortion affect YOUR life at all?
yet you have some views on that.
try to hold yourself to the same standard to which you hold others?

UBER obsessed now. Also, please stay on topic. Hold yourself to the same standard to which you hold others, Mod.
dodge the real question...
i'm just looking for some consistency. you pick and choose which of "god's laws" you want to follow but criticize others for doing the same.
now you tell others to stop caring about things which don't affect their life when you're demonstrably doing that.
a handful of responses online is not an obsession - i am just trying to understand the apparent hypocrisy or double-standard at play and, when you won't address it, there's really only one conclusion to be drawn.

Yeah, I pledged not to vote in the next election specifically to get people to be nicer to me. And it worked! People have stopped wondering what side I'm on. I'm on neither side.

Stop trying to understand me, you never will. I can't be defined and I don't give a shit what you think about me or my opinions.
Life is complicated. The majority of abortions are NOT rape incest a 10 year old etc. I've watched enough ex-abortionists interviews to know that for a fact. I don't support forced birth. Go to the doctor, get an abortion. It shouldn't be a societal norm. It should be between you and your doctor and only reserved for the aforementioned cases. It affects me because it creates a culture of death and devalues human life. Actual reasons for abortions quoted were "I can't go to concerts anymore"....."my boyfriend doesn't want a baby"......"this is an inconvenient time for me" - someone who ALREADY HAD KIDS
I had 2 abortions when I was an active alcoholic and my pussy ass boyfriend at the time pressured me into it. Planned Parenthood convinced me it was "just a clump of cells" at 8 weeks. It's not.
Now as a not 19 year old, mother, and recovering liberal,, I could never murder again. Clear enough for you? I regret it every day.
Are you a man or a woman? Have you ever had an abortion?
