It’s certainly not unprecedented. Leftist Maximilien Robespierre, the French Revolution’s main author, was a passionate capital punishment opponent who called the death penalty a “cowardly assassination” — he then went on to execute thousands during his Reign of Terror. Likewise did the liberals of decades ago frown upon punishment, sometimes saying it “doesn’t work” and is “morally wrong.” Boy, has that ever changed.
Now, Frenchie Max style, punishment’s effectiveness is not only a self-evident truth to leftists, but it can’t be harsh enough.
That is, when it’s the “right people” being punished.
A good example is the recent sentencing of “Proud Boy” January 6 defendants, one of the latest of whom got 17 years for an incident in which no “one was killed, no property was significantly damaged, nothing was set on fire, nobody whipped out a gun, nobody got taken hostage, [and] no mass casualties were strewn through the streets,” as commentator Monica Showalter put it Friday.
In contrast, Black Lives Matter and Antifa rioters routinely get off with minor or no charges.
The Hill reports on the aforementioned J6er who had the book — and a few addenda — thrown at him, writing that Florida Army veteran and “Proud Boy Joe Biggs on Thursday was sentenced to 17 years in prison, the second-highest sentence handed down to anyone convicted in connection with the Capitol attack.”
“Biggs was convicted of sedition and other serious felonies earlier this year after being accused of leading members of the right-wing extremist group to the Capitol and talking with the first rioter to breach police barricades just minutes before he acted,” the site continues.
Also sentenced Thursday was Proud Boy Zachary Rehl, an ex-U.S. Marine; he got 15 years after a conviction for leading a mob toward...

Justice will be served when the judges and da’s get 3 times the sentence given to the J6 protesters who should have never spent a minute in jail.
So, never.
BLM == corporate financed regime terrorists.
But...but...PUTIN! Ooogedy-Boogedy!

Republican Senators are asking a one topic question to Judicial nominees, do you denounce Jan 6th?
Do you agree that can never happen again?
Our multitiered INjustice non-system:
1) Foreign invaders aka “migrants”
2) Democrats
3) LGBTZRSTUVWXYZ+ regardless of party
4) “People of Color” regardless of party
5) Muslims
6) Republicans in general
7) White, Christian, straight men
It is beyond injustice; it is cruel and unusual punishment
Yep...another leftist distraction.
eff the turd-world banana republic we live in.
Whitey has really bent over for the Africans. Call whitey a racist and he’ll piss his pants in a heartbeat. The culture club America cancellers are destroying America and whitey wants to give every black person on the planet 5 million bucks for being black. Doh! America has gone full retard.
What do you expect from a Demorat run banana republic.
Some still haven’t internalized the idea that white Americans do not live in a free country, they do not live under the rule of law with equal justice, and they do not have the protection of “the Constitution”.
In fact, in the US, the Constitution is now the Second Constitution (Civil Rights Act) which does not apply to whites at all - in fact it penalizes them.
That’s just the way it is.

this is the most upsetting outcome and here we sit, and there the lame congress sits.....these people did nothing wrong and they are being publically crucified...
Anyone with a brain can see the hypocrisy in this. IT IS NOT the Dept. of Justice, it is the Dept. of INJUSTICE.
It’s getting harder to say the final phrase of the Pledge of Allegiance with any integrity.
“With no liberty or justice for political enemies of the Democrats”
And we do nothing. Where is the fundraising, where are the conservative legal organizations. We are all complicit.
