Feel good story of the day: The ‘Pepper Balls’ guy has been arrested (hell of a prison nickname)

Remember the guy protesting Donald Trump in Phoenix who take a police gas canister to his groin? ICYMI, here’s the video again:

Well, he’s been arrested:

To be honest, maybe cops should give him a pass because it is the best video we’ve seen this year.

From CBS 5:

Police go on to say in the documents that he later picked up a second smoking canister and threw that one at police as well, hence the three charges of aggravated assault.

And it will be really hard for this genius to say he didn’t pick up a gas grenade as he had to go to the hospital for treatment from the said grenade:

The sales and support representative at Go Daddy spent Tuesday night in the emergency room. He said he got treatment for inhaling pepper spray and for second-degree burns on his right hand from picking up a hot can of tear gas.

Oh, and he’s admitted the crime online, too:

“He has posted images and admissions to his crime on social and local media outlets,” wrote Phoenix police spokesman Sgt. Jonathan Howard in an email announcing the arrest.

Sheriff Joe would do an amazing job handling antifa criminals after what they’ve done to Trump. When he was talking to Hannity last night on the phone he said he “loves” Trump.

Never been accused of being a dumb man. It was a serious suggestion. ;-) Heck, half the ANTIFA “men” would love the pink underwear. Baloney sandwich, not so much.

He just looks like a real schmuck, typical of most people on the left. Goofy. Stupid to the core.

On the other hand, you can clearly see in the eyes of some lefties that there’s something seriously wrong with them mentally: Michael Moore, Ward Churchill, Rosie O types. Not so much with this guy and his breed, though. He simply comes across as your typical liberal/lefty goofball, probably too dumb to even begin to explain why he’s out there violently trying to bring down the greatest country and economic system the world has ever known. If asked, he’d probably just parrot back the BS that his hardcore commie mentors fed him.

Actually, now that I look at him again, it is definitely apparent that he's mental.

The Nazis hit him in his no-no? They'll hit you right in the tiddlywinks?

Judging from the video, his perineum didn't escape injury.

I think he was charged with 3 counts of a class 3 felony.
Here’s the arrest sheet:
http://ktvk.images.worldnow.com/library/a5a52071-684b-4fef-a876-f4ede05ffb37.pdf

The charges on the sheet are:
3 Cts. 13-1204A8A AGG ASLT-OFFICER F3
1 Cts. 13-2902A2 UNLAW ASSEMBLY-REFUSE DISPERSE M1

I think the “F3” means “class 3 felony”.

The arresting officer checked the box that says “Firearm or other weapon used” and the boxes that say “Someone was injured by the defendant” and “Medical attention was necessary”. I guess those boxes help justify the “aggravated” part of “aggravated assault”.

There are 3 counts because they saw him throw “smoking grenades” at police 3 separate times. They didn’t charge him for kicking the grenade.

They got a search warrant and recovered his gas mask and other clothes from the crime.

Unless he gets a leftist prosecutor or judge, I think he’s going to the big house. Yay!

http://www.criminaldefenselawyer.com/resources/criminal-defense/felony-offense/arizona-felony-class.htm

“The presumptive term for a class 3 felony is three years and six months; the aggravated term is eight years and nine months. (Ariz. Rev. Stat. § 13-701.)”

So (if the web site is accurate) the felonies could get him a total of between 10 years, 6 months and 25 years, 3 months.

I think he’ll try to cop a plea unless a leftist justice system lets him walk free.

President Trump will pardon him - Ha ha ha ha ha - No he won't.

Maybe you were replying to someone else? I wouldn’t ever say or imply that you’re dumb. I think the antifa thugs in pink underwear is an excellent idea! And having Sheriff Joe patrolling their cages ... a win-win!
