He served as a rifleman from 2008 to 2012 and deployed twice. The lance corporal received multiple awards, including the Combat Action Ribbon, National Defense Service Medal, and Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, among others. He was also a two-time recipient of the Navy Unit Commendation and Sea Service Deployment Ribbon.

This has me upset. I always tell people not to go play in somebody else's sandbox unless you can legally defend yourself. But, it still has me upset nonetheless. This is why I would never go to a rally or protest to a place like D.C.

And that's exactly what they want you to do.

God bless this marine and hope Trump quickly commutes these travesties of injustice.

What happened to the trial for Ray Epps? Epps was a stooge for Pelosi along with several others who had bullhorns encouraging protesters to storm the Capitol Bldg. They were never charged or prosecuted.
Who paid their transport, food and lodging while in D.C. for training?

Still an E-3 after 4 years? I wonder what happened in the military that caused him not to get promoted.

So they gave a decorated marine combat veteran 2 years for walking between stanchions led by the police on a informal tour through the capital building? And they try to claim it was more devastating than Pearly Harbor? That is called Dummycrat weaponized justice.

J6 summary:

The FedMob set it up, agitated the crowd, turned down the President’s offer to authorize the Nat. Guard, hired punks like Ray Epps to instigate going into the Capitol, planted bombs at the RNC and DNC headquarters, misdirected the Capitol Police, opened electronic locks on Capitol doors, murdered Ashli Babbit outside the senate chambers and covered it up, conducted bogus partisan hearings on J6 to justify the falsehoods, hid video footage showing a generally peaceful crowd and to hide the instigators, maliciously prosecuted J6ers, and more.

Convince me otherwise.

That is precisely what they want; for you to be afraid to exercise your rights. KGB Tactics 101.

Unfortunately the commies are not going allow Trump anywhere near the White Hut ever again.. Just like the kangaroo court of judge Merchan (spit), the fix is in..

The other day I started listening to a podcast on rumble where a J6 prisoner in the DC gulag had supposedly just gotten out of 36 days of solitary and was calling in to this podcast to be interviewed. After about 5 minutes I was suddenly like wait a minute if this man is imprisoned in the DC gulag under terrible conditions how are they letting him call in to an online podcast and freely discuss everything?

I’m a bit skeptical at this point about what’s really going on there.

The left has been saying for years that non violent offenders shouldn’t be put in jail, and that first time offenders should be given grace.

But NONE of that applies to J6 protestors!

When it comes to J6 protestors there is TONS of jail space available!!!

I guess it’s a good thing that I didn’t go to the Capitol on J6.

Those people who stormed the White House on the occasion of Trump’s inauguration; how were their cases handled?

And no doubt if they find Trump guilty, they will orchestrate another riot.

That is also why I stayed home. DC is enemy territory! However, it is our communist Government who will be at a disadvantage when they come into our territory. They know this and is the reason behind their desire to abolish the 1st and 2nd amendment. Molon Labe!
