The one thing I've learned over the last 2-3 years is that laws and even constitutions aren't worth the paper they were written on.
Politically appointed judges determine who gets which "rights". That's it. Justice isn't blind. It's a bunch of corrupt apparatchicks who rule based on politics.
It always comes down to how many people are willing and able to back up a claim using violence. In a functioning society, everyone has reasonably similar standards for what makes violent enforcement of some decision or agreement acceptable. When there is substantial disagreement on the standards, the guaranteed result is widespread violence.
Right now, that widespread violence is done mostly by police officers enforcing judges' decisions. If people want to change what gets enforced, they need to have tactical discussions about how to change the composition and size of the enforcing population. This is the reason the Progressives have remade the US military by replacing the upper brass with their lackies, and used the Defund the Police movement to cut down the size of local law enforcement, to replace them with centrally controlled federal enforcers. Their tactics have been successful. We need to figure out how to respond even more successfully.
“You livestreamed your criminal conduct to thousands of followers hoping they would pay you for your actions,” District Judge Trevor McFadden told Gionet during the nearly two-hour sentencing hearing. “You were promoting and celebrating what was a national tragedy.”
I love all the irrelevant stuff they throw in there. Basically all January 6th accusations are circular; you were there, and we say what happened there is Bad, therefore you are guilty of Bad Thing. And then they throw in "intent" and other nonsense. You intended to be there, doing that thing we've predetermined is bad, despite not charging people directly with that thing, so we find you guilty of conspiring to do thing we're not charging you with. We're doubling your sentence.
I think there's an entirely different set of criminals from who they're accusing.
What about the "journalists" in there recording the whole thing, in some cases livestreaming to people online? Were they not hoping their followers (or company) would pay for their actions? I'm no fan of idiots like BakedAlaska but really what's the difference?
At this point I don't even care. They have to prove and convict of an actual crime before I care if anyone "promoted" or "celebrated" (the former not always being a crime itself, the latter...never?) said predetermined crime.
What, did he celebrate and encourage "unlawful protest?" Fuck these judges and juries, this is America.
Don't you love when leftwing cunts get to act like they are your betters, knowing and doling out their wisdom along with their 'justice', and puppets just play along. It's good theater, provides a lesson we should all learn. They want the lesson to be 'know your place, respect your betters, don't question, and above all else, shut the fuck up you insignificant little shits!'
The lesson we learn: burn them all. The witches must be cleansed for the sake of all humanity!
Sounds about right. The whole setup gives easy "wins" to the state, while sanctimonious judges read official propaganda into the record for soundbites.
If so, it's pretty sus that they've kept so many in solitary confinement for years, now, but this guy's been roaming free, and only now receives this slap on the wrist, at least in comparison to what others have suffered.
if that is his actual sentence, that literally flies in the face of the first amendment.

There’s very little that is worse than a leftist judge.

They cite it in multiple articles. Very weird...is that his actual "crime?"
Protesting without a permit

Not entirely. They have some people on actually damaging things or hitting the cops.

2 mos and $2,500, sounds legit, totally not an FBI/"Other Agency" asset.

Baked is a well known follower of anything that will make him famous. Anything.
Hell 2 months in the poky may further his goal. I don't get it though has he not been in this whole time?
Isn't that the guy that would leech off Ice Poseidon too? Seems like he's desperate to be famous.
His salad days.
Was he there that day?

2 months is the rat sentence.
