[Think. Again.]

1. okay.

[RKP5637]

2. Excellent!!! K&R!!!

[EYESORE 9001]

3. I don't know about these scumbags, but that sentence would make me proud

Proud that justice is being served.

[brush]

4. Whoa! They fucked around and found out.

Attempting a coup doesn't pay, except in long stretches in prison.

[MagickMuffin]

5. Sounds fair to me, How about you?

I’d also keep them in solitary confinement so they can’t recruit from within the prison system.

[onetexan]

7. Prison w teach them some lessons. I dont think they wld be

Inclined to recruit from prison.

[MagickMuffin]

10. Prison is exactly how white supremacist recruit people

They have a captive audience so to speak. Younger impressionable men who might have shorter sentences.

[tulipsandroses]

9. Nah, I'd let them be amongst all the others

I have a feeling that although they talk a lot of shit in defense of trump, they are cowards, punks. I look forward to hearing they got their asses beat. (I’ll wait for the posts about condoning prison violence). I don’t care if they are met with prison justice.

19. THIS!!☝️

[Chainfire]

6. That sounds about right for terrorists.

[WhiteTara]

20. More than terrorists, they are traitors.

[Kid Berwyn]

8. Stand back and say, "Bye-byeeeee!"

Traitors.

[OAITW r.2.0]

11. I don't like NAZI's....

hope they get what they deserve,

[AllyCat]

22. Nazi dislike here as well.

Karma’s a bitch.

[madinmaryland]

32. The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi.

[BigmanPigman]

12. That seems about right.

I wish the GQP leaders would get the same.

[BOSSHOG]

13. Isn't this what the party of law and order would want?

All because they were conned by the unquestioned leader of the Republican Party. All because freedom and liberty and Justice for all have no place in a Republican Party presidential platform. Ted Cruz, josh boy, Lindsay knucklehead, mtg, Matt and on and on, step to the mics and tell us all, based on your parties stance on law and order, why these sentences are wrong. It’s what your lord and savior would want you to do. And he can depend on you because you have no integrity or love of country. Or he’s blackmailing some or all of you. Sucks to be you.

[Recycle_Guru]

14. they were ring leaders--throw them all in prison for 30 years

[underpants]

15. Taking a guess - 8

If the get 10 that would seem right but I doubt they are getting 30+.

[mahina]

16. Now that is what I am talking about.

17. Kick

These defendants stand out among other January 6 defendants because they literally led the attack on the Capitol — contributing to four pivotal breach points in the first 80 minutes of the riot. The defendants executed these crimes as a result of the steps that they had taken in advance to bring a fighting force to the Capitol on January 6. No other group of defendants had a bigger impact on the events of January 6 than these defendants and the men in their command. Perhaps the closest corollary to these defendants are the Oath Keeper defendants, who were recently sentenced by Judge Amit Mehta to between three and 18 years of incarceration. Those who led the Oath Keeper defendants repeatedly advocated for civil war — both before and after January 6, 2021 — amassed a stockpile of weapons that they brought to the Capitol region, and ultimately directed their members to storm the Capitol, with more than a dozen of their members heeding the call. This conduct warrants sentences consistent with the kinds of sentences historically imposed when defendants are convicted of seditious conspiracy. The conduct of these defendants is more egregious than that of the Oath Keeper defendants and warrants greater sentences. By the time that Stewart Rhodes mustered his group to begin marching towards the Capitol at 1:25 pm (sending the Signal message “Pence is doing nothing. As I predicted.”), these defendants had already stormed the First Street gates, destroyed the black metal fence, entered the West Plaza, assaulted Officer Ode and robbed him of his shield, and regrouped on the lawn, where Nordean and Biggs took a video of themselves boasting that they had “just stormed the Capitol” and taken the “motherfucking place back.” By 2:32 pm, when Kelly Meggs directed 12 members of Stack One to begin climbing the steps on the east side of the Capitol, these defendants had already pushed through a line of officers to climb the concrete stairs under the scaffolding, Rehl had sprayed an officer in the face, Pezzola had broken open the window at the Senate Wing Door with his stolen riot shield, Biggs had entered and exited the Capitol, and Nordean had ascended to the Upper West Terrace. And unlike the Oath Keeper defendants, whose numbers were limited to a core group of roughly two dozen men and women, these defendants led nearly 200 like-minded men onto Capitol grounds, who also engaged in violent attacks on law enforcement and destruction of government property, thus enabling the defendant’s calculated attempt to forcibly stop the lawful transfer of power. Any disparity between these defendants and others sentenced for crimes on January 6,including members of the Oath Keepers, is fully warranted based on the defendants’ conspiracy and conduct.

For the reasons set forth above and further supported by the memoranda filed herewith, the government recommends that the Court impose a lengthy sentence of imprisonment on each defendant. Specifically, Enrique Tarrio should serve 33 years in prison; Joseph Biggs and Zachary Rehl, 30 years; Ethan Nordean, 27 years; and Dominic Pezzola, 20 years. Additional support for these sentencing recommendations is set forth in Attachment A (Tarrio), Attachment B (Nordean), Attachment C (Biggs), Attachment D (Rehl), and Attachment E (Pezzola).

18. That sounds right

plus a major deterrent for any wantabees.

[onetexan]

21. If these numbnut foot soldiers get 30-33 years, what should the ringbleaders get?

[AverageOldGuy]

23. It's known as:

FA, FO.

They F'edA, they are FO.

[Fla Dem]

24. Excellent!!!

[Botany]

25. I wonder if Tarrio is ready to grow old and die in prison to protect Roger Stone

[emulatorloo]

26. Good question. And I always wonder if Stone is ready to go to prison to protect Donald Trump.

[Botany]

28. I think Tarrio was not doing his right wing bad boy act out of any deep political philosophy but ...

... he was being paid and i would look @ Stone and where has Stone been getting his money from
to be an agent provocateur for the right and to rat fuck America's elections? If Tarrio talks the
whole nasty mess could be exposed. It is late and I have had some wine but I look to see Stone
fleeing America along with Flynn and Manafort.

[emulatorloo]

29. I agree about Manafort, Flynn and Stone fleeing the country if it comes to that.

So right there with you w my own tin foil Top Hat.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

27. Bye bye motherfuckers.

[Brainfodder]

30. These big #s might be giving some pause to some knuckleheads?

They watch too many macho movies and clearly not enough Stripes!

[malaise]

31. They will sing loudly on Roger Stone

and Bannon.
Can’t wait

[madinmaryland]

33. LOCK THEM UP!!!
