The Circus Court is at it again.
Holy fing s.
You know, it’s a lot cheaper to just “dust” these terrorists when they are caught redhanded like this joker was. Also, cases like this really put a strain on those senile old bass turds in our Federal courts.
Boy that 2003 US invasion of Iraq even caused an Islamic nutjob to travel back in time in an attempt to wreck havoc at a millennium event...
Wasn’t this case cited by the Dims as the “proper” way to handle terrorism?
Wow! That is quite an archive of articles you have going there!
Nice work!
They also failed to sentence him to execution, which was the appropriate sentence.
I’m going to open a torch and pitchfork concession, I am.
Don’t know about that one. I didn’t follow the case that closely.
They should recalculate it to the maximum 35 years.
would have been different if he’d planned to bome something important, like the court house.
I think one of the last things dubya should do as president is fire the 9th circus judges. He can do that and it would really benefit the country and his legacy.
Something like that.
(Actually I was looking for the Larson cartoon with a guy holding a burned out torch and a thought bubble of the guy who sold it -with a guarantee- to him)...
That is me right about now. Quite the likeness.
I think the problem here is the federal sentencing guidelines, which unnecessarily intrude the authority of the trial courts for sentencing, making it difficult for everyone involved. The guidelines came about mainly in response to the courts’ reluctance to impose strong enough penalties (Congress felt) in support of the War on Drugs. State court judges and juries have much more freedom to arrive at a just verdict.
Thank you calcowgirl.
