    Federal buildings were attacked by blm and antifa. I even believe federal officers were assaulted and murdered by blm and antifa.

    The only difference I have with you is that I will never try to justify the violence of the rioters, regardless of their skin color or political affiliation.

    But I must admit that this is a huge difference.

    I’ve never justified violence with the exception of self defense and in rare cases revenge. I never looked at looting and burning buildings as mostly peaceful. What happened on 1/6 is something I don’t support, but it pales in comparison to the riots and violence of last summer. Heck, what happened on 1/6 was far less violent than a Saturday night in Chicago.

    It is all they had to charge him with, they knew any steeper of a charge wouldn't hold up in court
    the fake news liberal media and democrats have blown this all out of proportion, and you bought it hook line and sinker
    so you will remain disappointed in the charges and sentencing

    so why wasn't he charged with that if you think it is so cut and dry?

    Haha, yea and it surely is but that tiny group of halfwits were not the monstrous government overthrowing army they've been portrayed as. They had no plan, they had no strategy, it was spur of the moment 'oh look we broke a window lets go this way'. When they got in there they were clueless, no idea where to go or what to do and so nearly every one of them just started wandering aimlessly snapping photos or trying to grab souvenirs. Aside from one woman getting shot, it was the least violent riot I've seen in the last 10 years. Doesn't seem to me that the amount of law enforcement efforts, government monies, and lawmaker hours being wasted over this is justified.

    They successful stopped certification of the national election with the attempt to allow their candidate to keep power.

    That is an insurrection attempt as per Blacks Law Dictionary and all Legal codes.

    Had this been AntiFa none of you patriots would be saying it was just innocent disagreement and police are wasting too many resources. Many of you would be calling for their execution.

    They were not charged so they didn’t commit a crime. Right @Steve N?

    That is the new narrative y’all are running with, right?

    This does not get in the way of their fantasy narrative.

    Problem with your argument the suspect did get correctly charged, just not the charge you keep wrongfully contributing to Nov 6

    Had it been ANTIFA they would have tried burning the building to the ground like so many police stations, courthouses, and ICE facilities. But hey if this becomes the new standard for dealing with rioters then I guess I can get on board with that provided its applied as equally.

    You mean the legal definition? Care to post the definition of insurrection you are using with commentary about how the events do not match said dictionary?

    Or is that too complicated and just calling the legal definition delusional with no evidence to back up your claim more your pace?

    So if trump had won and AntiFa did the EXACT same thing you would be saying they shouldn’t be charged? Correct?

    I’ll pose the question to you also, maybe y’all can tackle it together.

    Care to post the definition of insurrection you are using with commentary about how the events do not match said definition?

    Or is that too complicated and just calling the legal definition delusional with no evidence to back up your claim more your pace?

    The reality that keeps getting in your way is that not A SINGLE DEFENDENT has been charged with 'insurrection'....care to explain why?

    I'll stick with reality, you run with the delusional narrative. The delusional part is trying to say 1/6 was an 'insurrection'.

    Sentences always vary for the same crimes, even in the same jurisdiction

    Many of the riots over the summer had no one charged with riots. Does that mean the riot did not occur?

    As to why no one hasn’t been charged with such, there is little political appetite for such charges and I am unable to ask the prosecution why they haven’t so I have no idea. I do have eyes and can read however. What happened directly fits the legal definition.

    Feel free to answer the question if you find the will.

    Nope, looting and arson don’t seem to be crimes during mostly peaceful protests in democrat cities and no one can explain why. Perhaps you can.

    The definition of insurrection is not the issue, it's your delusional effort to misapply it.
    Your excuse of '' there is little political appetite for such charges '' is hilarious given that the rabid left is howling for blood, nationwide.

    The only accurate thing in your reply is this ------> " I have no idea " but that was obvious from the get go. Sorta the problem one runs into when parroting a hyperbolic and delusional narrative, devoid of basis in reality.

    So the times when there were looting and arson but no one was charged, those crimes didn’t happened, correct?

    This guy wasn’t charged with the things you mentioned and I doubt any will be.
