A 73-year-old Purple Heart Vietnam veteran and pastor James Cusick has been arrested at his home in Florida for being at the Capitol on January 6, though he was not involved in any violence or vandalism.

His son Casey, was also arrested in front of his distraught 3-year-old daughter who asked why they were locking her dad’s hands. He is also not accused of any violence or vandalism. Videos of the heartbreaking scene were provided to the Gateway Pundit.

The arrests took place on Thursday morning.

“This morning I saw a sheriff pull up in our driveway with his lights on and there was about four or five other cars with them,” his daughter Stacey told the Gateway Pundit. “They came up to our front door and I told my dad to go answer it. As he started towards the door they started banging and banging and saying ‘open up we have a warrant.’ He opened the door and they asked him his name and to step outside.”

From the article:

“They said that they understand that and that they’re ‘not the bad guys, we’re just here doing what we’re told,'”

Shades of post-war Germany. "We were just following orders."

Wouldn’t be a bit surprised that if the 3yo was there she’d be handcuffed and taken away also. This administration has gone mad; are we all doomed now?

“They said that they understand that and that they’re ‘not the bad guys, we’re just here doing what we’re told,”

The judges at Nuremberg rejected the “following orders” defense. They said that when an individual follows an order that is illegal under international law, he is responsible for that choice, except under certain circumstances.

Again, tell us how when the time comes, they’ll refuse to obey illegal orders.

Where are the Senate Republicans? Not a word of ridicule directed against Biden for these dastardly acts.

Isn’t it interesting that this doesn’t happen to people in the country illegally - trespassers on our soil - but IS being done to people who undoubtedly have a right to be where they were on condition of good behavior, which is the only thing in dispute.

Interesting.

The traitorous Demonicrats and their terrorist-FIB collaborators are seeking to intimidate patriots from conducting any demonstrations under the threat of phoney charges that will bankrupt anyone trying to defend against them.
