Consider what the punishment for anyone would be if they dragged a cop into a mob in a riot.

I believe that if this occurred at a BLM or ANTIFA riot, no charges would be filed at all. In fact, this may very well have already happened at one of these riots.

Yeah, I understand how this doesn’t square with the BLM riots. But, it doesn’t lessen the crime.

Disagree. We have been shown apt evidence that it's not treated as a crime when other people do it.

The constitution requires equal application of the law, and this is clearly not an equal application of the law.

There is a lot of circumstantial evidence indicating all the violence was deliberately orchestrated by Federal agents. This appears to be a Reichstag fire.

Who is Ray Epps?

I am sure it was described and probably included video.

You certainly have more faith in their truthfulness and objectivity than do I.

So far as i'm concerned, every court in DC is tainted with lies, corruption and stupidity. They let Eric Holder go, they let Sussmann go, they convicted Bannon.

They are Nazis trying Jews. They let other Nazis go, and they convict Jews for anything.

The DC courts need to be dissolved and all their cases sent to other districts outside of that corrupt cesspool.

All I can say is “Good”

I hope every single person who did anything violent or destructive received a conviction

We are better then this

I don’t care if a bunch of animals got away with it before, screw them.

BTW all the “men” who torched the two police cars in Trenton, NJ during the summer of love, all received convictions as well.

If he wanted to assault cops he needed to go to Portland where it was completely supported by the democrats.

Amy Berman Jackson is Biden’s Roland Freisler.

She deserves the same end.

I agree.

The cops—especially this cop— were probably belligerent and violent. They were elsewhere that day. I wouldn’t be surprised if Fanone didn’t have it coming.

It seems curious: why haven’t the lawyers leveled counter-charges at the cops? Why hasn’t anyone accused the cops of brutality? How did these cops, after years of defamation ,painting them as racist brutes, suddenly become heroic media darlings?

Even if the cop was an angel and innocent, isn’t it standard practice in court to counter your accuser’s claims—”No your honour! He clubbed me first...”? Every con plays thay card; why not our guys? Why haven’t these lawyers tried to crack the presumption that the cops were innocent?

Oh wait—I think I know....
