Federal Court Rules Rand Paul Attacker’s 30-Day Sentence Too Lenient

A Senator was brutally attacked....

Should be a federal offense same as attacking a Senior Citizen

That is:

$5k fine

Step up of the indictment charge

5 years in federal slammer.

Success is so foreign to commies they think its given not earned therefore its somehow granted by “privilege”.

To be fair, success is very often related to privilege, especially in business. I've seen it over and over again.

I wonder what dirt the Rats have on weasel Roberts?

[miss marmelstein]

Disgraceful. Let’s face it, if it had been a typical thug from an inner city, he would probably have the book thrown at him. But, according to the judge, he was “an educated person” (read: ardent Democrat) so he goes scott-free.

Rand Paul says that was not the issue. He disputes that lie put out by the guy’s lawyer. It was all about politics.

And to clarify from the article, the attack was NOT about lawn clippings. Congressman Paul said they had not had any contact with the neighbor in about ten years. There had been absolutely no complaints about the lawn at all prior to the attack. Paul did not even see or hear the attack happen as he was wearing ear protection as he was mowing and the neighbor struck him from behind.

I was scanning the replies to be first to actually remark about the most obvious lie of the continuing media/court narrative. Anyone who believes this is about grass clippings, believes that James Hodgkinson was a lone crazed gunman, and Seth Richards, was killed by a random mugger.

Can't say I've heard of a sentencing being deemed to lenient.

I'm a little leery of the concept myself.

Every now and then justice is served. The prosecutors wanted 21-27 mos. I would say 2 years in prison is appropriate. 30 days was outrageous. 😡

[Songcraft]

It's kind of like these nuts who violently assault someone just for wearing a "MAGA" cap.   When found guilty, all of them should seriously receive the maximum penalty allowed, (not a 30-day "jaywalking" sentence).

[TribalPrincess2U]

Hope he lost patients.

Paul should sue him.

[PGalt]

HOORAY Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals!

[wintertime]

I agree.

[Vision]

Can't disagree more, it is not how the majority become successful.
