More domestic terrorists face the music for their actions.

And when convicted by juries of their peers, they run.

Not so proud after all…

It was always more about vanity

One day of madness turns into 10 years of prison time and a lifetime criminal record.

And compensating for something. Fat white men get to play army without the commitment and sacrifice of actually serving in some cases.

In others, getting back the sense of purpose and belonging that they missed since leaving (in addition to the conspiracy bunk and the white nationalism).

“I acted out of severe mental anguish and very genuine fear for my life,” he said. “I am truly sorry and I hope you can fined it in your heart to forgive me.”

The MAGA defense and if Trump wins this year expect a pardon and elevation to martyr status.

The oddest thing is that those supporting these ‘proud boys’ are always the first to justify the consequences of not following police orders. Well, here you go.

It's hilarious listening to the preposterous MAGA narrative that Jan 6th was a "leftist inside job" when all the defendants being led off to jail are Proud Boys, Neo-Nazis, and other blinded hard-core Trump supporters...

And it won't be long before the Ultra MAGA Insurrectionist himself will be sitting in a cell beside them...

That can eventually be expunged one day

Um, no. Unlike your 30 prison sentence for unspecified traffic offenses, felony convictions don’t just get expunged.

And what a defense!

Not “He didn’t do it!”

Not “there were mitigating circumstances.”

He can get that expunged.

What a pathetic deflection.

Pardon in the near future.

Why would you want to defend and expunge the record of a dirt-bag that attacked police officers doing their duty to protect the Capitol?

Worrell, 52, was convicted after a bench trial of assaulting officers with pepper spray gel as the mob of Donald Trump supporters attacked the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Authorities say he was dressed in tactical vest and bragged that he “deployed a whole can” and shouted insults at officers, calling them “commies” and “scum.”

You must believe like him these law enforcement officers are "commies" and "scum"...

Typical MAGA respect for law and order...

I doubt it. Even if Trump becomes president he won't pardon hundreds of criminals from the Jan 6 riot and looting.

Accepting a pardon is a legal admission of guilt.

“expunged” lol.

Why are you defending someone who attacked cops? You usually don’t.

What’s different?

Absolute moron.

It's not a defense, sorry bud.

What’s different?

What's different with the far left extremists that you supported, who attacked cops in BLM protests yet did not receive lengthy prison sentences?

-10 ( +0 / -10 )

Tactical vests and armor to hide their expanding bellies. He-man beards to hide their diminutive chins.

“Expunged” felony convictions to show their “patriotism”…

Compensating insecure morons one and all.

What's different

is that this one is a white trump supporter. So it’s ok ,for his cultist rubes anyway).

Why would you want to defend and expunge the record of a dirt-bag that attacked police officers doing their duty to protect the Capitol? 

Because I don't believe the lengthy charges handed down were justified to the vast majority of individuals who were caught up in a riot.

You must believe like him these law enforcement officers are "commies" and "scum"...

No, but I do have a lot of perplexing questions for this admin that when asked always seem to dodge them.

Typical MAGA respect for law and order...

But libs defying subpoenas, burning down police stations, attacking and beating up judges in a courtroom, that's somehow acceptable....

I doubt it.

I don't.

Even if Trump becomes president he won't pardon hundreds of criminals from the Jan 6 riot and looting.

Yeah, the same was said about Flynn, Stone, Bannon...etc....

Now you admit it was a riot.

You are right, this is way different.

What’s different?

From Pelosi not providing proper security, from the cops allowing the protesters to enter the Capitol, from the video footage of people walking in peacefully, to Ashley being shot, Ray Epps, the unwillingness from Wray to admit to how many informants were in the MAGA crowds, a lot of questions that were not answered.

Absolute moron.

A lot of people in this admin are.

Charged, tried AND CONVICTED by a jury.

So your “feelings” are irrelevant.

He’s a felon and like the coward he is, he ran away.

I never said it wasn't in the end. Definitely wasn't an insurrection by any stretch of the term.

Pardon in the near future.

Only if the party of "law and order" wins.

What happened to their tough on crime stance?

But on this post YOU defended THIS guy - who attacked police officers, then ran out on his bail...

So why are you defending HIM?

You must believe like him these law enforcement officers are "commies" and "scum"...

No,

Prove it...

Typical MAGA respect for law and order...

But libs defying subpoenas, burning down police stations, attacking and beating up judges in a courtroom, that's somehow acceptable....

BINGO! "Defying and violating a subpoena" - you mean those Libs Trump and Jordan...ROFL...

You posted many times that it was people exercising their rights and nothing more than trespassing.
