Does anyone know how many people were arrested after storming the Oklahoma state capitol building the other day?

Something posted on a dating site is going to be admissible even for an arrest warrant?

The average dating profile is loaded with half truths at best. (not mine of course)

I think the FBI could actually catch criminals and terrorists if they didn't spend so much time on dating aps.

It’s there in black and white. It makes prosecution easier. It was typed by the accused person and cannot be denied.

So naturally law enforcement has agreements with all the social media to flag postings like this and to reveal name, address, IP address and telephone number.

It’s not just a fun place to post pictures of the dog.

You have the right not to post on social media. Anything you post on social media can and will be used against you in a court of law.

I was single for a long time, but I never used dating aps.

Once I got those “try it free and see who your matches mighh be!” emails.

I wasn’t dating anyone at the time, so I thought “What the heck!”

I live in a fairly isolated rural area. Two possible matches popped up, and I knew both women fairly well.

New York State will find something to charge him with as well.

I don’t know what is more effed up:

This guy posting about attending the July 6th “siege of the capital building?”

This guy lying about attending the July 6tj “siege of the capital building?”

The person who turned him in?

Or the fact our government tracked this dude down by going through trillions of bits of data, to arrest him?

Meanwhile BLM stormed the Oklahoma capital, while it was in session, to actually STOP legislation that would’ve penalized violent protesting more and the corrupt media is SILENT.

Face it - America is under siege by communists and the DNC.

Cuffed and stuffed in solitary confinement.
No one is standing up for those under wrongful/ unjust (?) confinement. Why?

It’s still up to the prosecution to prove the case. Anybody can confess to whatever they want, but the prosecution still has to prove their case.

I stormed the capital on January 6th, 2021.

Now prove the case.
