Top Rhode Island Democrat gets off easy after keying constituent's car with anti-Biden sticker on it

What kind of a man keys another man's car because he doesn't like its bumper sticker — and then blames the victim when he's caught?

These days, it may well be an elected Democrat in high office lording it over us.

That is what we see in Rhode Island, where a state senator got caught doing just that — and then got off easy for it.

A Democratic state senator in Rhode Island who was caught keying a car because it had a 'Biden sucks' bumper sticker has been sentenced to pay $3,000 in restitution.

Joshua Miller, 69, who serves as the Senate Democrat policy chairman, admitted to charges of vandalism and obstruction of a police officer.

It comes after he deliberately keyed a vehicle that had been parked next to his own, at the Garden City Center in Cranston, Rhode Island, last month.

The son of the car's owner immediately reported the incident to the police, stating he heard a scratching noise and got out of the vehicle to see Miller holding a set of keys in his hands.

When confronting Miller about keying his vehicle, he simply denied it and walked away. That was until police arrived and charged Miller with the crimes which are misdemeanors.

If any one of us had been caught doing that, plus lying to the police in outrageously blaming the victim as well as making up "threats" from him, we'd be in for a stretch in jail.

But this guy not only got a mere monetary fine for his vandalism, which may well cover only the cost of repairs for his damage and not damages compensation to the victim for his stress and time, but he gets told by the judge to "stay out of trouble" so that he gets his record expunged.

With our two tier justice system is anyone surprised a Democrat caught committing a crime was let off easy. He probably used Hunter’s crimes and almost punishments as a defense.

No argument here. But lest we forget about those who vote for them: Ping.

Saw this f’n DB on tape. He deserved(s) the beatdown of his pathetic life for what he did.
Old libtard fuk was pissy that day, and tries to name drop, and use his position to get outa the keying.
Kudos to the police involved, but politicians behind the scene saved him apparently.
The car owner should be legally able to one punch on him, or key his car in return.

See people, they hate anyone NOT aligned with them!

I hate to break it to anyone reading this article but for a first time misdemeanor offender for vandalism is not likely to get any jail time.

Doesn’t matter who you are.

Yeah, it does.

If you think it does not then you go try it.

Key some democrat's car and watch what happens.

Perhaps someone will take pity on you and send you a file with a cake in it.

Should have had let’s go Brandon on there instead and told everyone he was supporting the new Chicago mayor. Then the apologies etc. would have flowed.
