You lost the right to say you back the blue. No more law and order bull *****. 

 

That it really oversimplifying the issue. My biggest problem with how the arrests were handled is that many were held without any process or trail for five years. That is not what we are supposed to do in America. Even if they are guilty and deserve a life sentence, they are still entitled to due process.

 

Believe it or not, I am not fully on board with the decision. I actually don't think that a pardon like this so quickly was wise, but I do think that anyone non-violent who was arrested has gone well past their sentence and should be let go. The rest should have gotten the five years already served off their sentences. '

 

This would have been a lot less messy if the last administration hadn't used them as political pawns and instead gave them a fair trial like every other prisoner gets.

I'm not going to disagree with this. I don't know the inns and outs of every case? But I will admit some sentences seem excessive. For example, the guy from Rochester who was caught on video breaking a widow with the police shield got 10 years? Did he do anything else because 10 years seems like a lot for breaking a windrow.

Examples of excessive sentencing and over zealous pursuit of "suspects" are what many cite when the legal system is weaponized for political purposes. If this guy from Rochester broke a window at the Capitol and was a member of a protected social class or political group there's a high probability he would have received close to nothing in the form of a sentence. Recall the Portland Antifa attacking Federal property for months, the courthouse building, breaking windows, setting fires, attacking and injuring Federal officers. How many of those characters received 10 year sentences or did any hard time at all? 

 

On top of it we hear warnings from Democrats that Trump is going to weaponize the legal system against his political enemies. Like its a new concept to them. They should keep quiet, because they drew first blood and suddenly they want the fight to end because they've lost leverage over their enemies.

Who was this about? I don't recall the situation? Was the person wrongfully convicted? I'm sure it was about one individual situation. I'm not into blm, antifa, Maga, isis, proud boys, your mother. Any of it.

It's about Trump's trial so there's a decent amount of sarcasm thrown in there, but still contains a completely unexamined (and untrue) prior that helps undergird a couple of those "movements" you just mentioned.

 

Does that mean you're a full-throated supporter? No, not necessarily. You're a stranger on the internet and we all know very little about each other in real life. But uncritically swallowing the idea that blacks were wrongfully convicted by "kkk DAs" en masse demonstrates at least some ignorance-bred sympathy for their positions.

So I guess the documentary I watched on it lied then? I guess you know more than the former employee who worked their who was interviewed. He said he had the green light to do it, that's what the instructions were, he didn't say they would automatically do it. But as always Maga idiots know everything. 

 

I am not sure who you are calling a MAGA idiot, but if that is aimed at me, you are crazy.

Regarding Area 51, or 15 as you called it prior to calling someone an idiot, the media pukes out a lot of stuff, not all of it accurate.

 

I have a good deal of experience operating in the Nellis Operating Area, where this area is, and they would not  shoot you on site.

There are significant geographic boundaries, and you would be "encountered" and strongly assisted in turning around and getting out, but definitely not "shot on site."

 

But you saw a documentary.

Did they say anything in that documentary about who might have  opened the  doors at the Capitol that can only be unlocked from inside or nah?
