I can actually see a decent argument for pardoning the otherwise-OK people who had no violent criminal record and just got caught up in some hysteria on Jan 6th. But it should only have been for those people of otherwise good character. Not people with previous jail time for beating up three-year-olds.

Him being released or pardoned didn’t do him any good because he is now dead

Interesting to note that the J6 rioters all seem to have been given sentences of months rather than years...especially in america and its outrageous sentences dished out......



Compared to to the years and years dished out to the uk counterparts..

Crazy really.

To be fair to the J6 lot (if we must be) - the events of that day were historic because of it being a supposed-insurrection and what it represents, and it being the capitol building... but in terms of the scale, violence and destruction it was not on anywhere near the level of the recent UK unrest/riots.

True.

But I'm talking individual cases in the UK that were on the same/ or less, level of severity as the US ones.

But the subject of this thread, it sounds like he should have spent some time behind bars.

If they'd been in jail/prison for years at a time I think they've served enough time for Jan 6th by itself. If the system had been fair, then the other history should've been considered and there would been sentencing guidelines based on those conditions. The problem is they kept some of the people in apparently without trial. And if they had sentenced them fairly based on the facts, many of them would've long been out and the truly criminal ones would've had their facts examined (like this guy) and sentenced more appropriately... but the Federal govt can set whatever standard it wants, so it's not the same as a local case. So I'm glad to see those courts politically shellacked for once because it happens too often. Though honestly no telling though if it gets better or not under future administrations, because the courts at that level are still too heavily politicized (either direction). One administration is not going to fix that.

So you’re parents know you are on the internet saying stupid stuff?

Sounds like it’s not much of a waste. Unless the people who support The Sexual Predator also support the violent beating of children.
