They need the max sentence, every time. None of them are sorry; they’re just telling the judge what they think he wants to hear. They might as well not be sorry making license plates for a decade.
: an unexpected usually disconcerting challenge, revelation, or catch
also : an attempt to embarrass, expose, or disgrace someone (such as a politician) with a gotcha
Fine. Keep moving the goalposts at whatever speed helps you cope. You all look absolutely ridiculous from the outside, just so you know. Always jumping to the attack because you have no defense, never informing yourselves about your own doings. It’s almost like you’re all begging for the coup to succeed next time.
You’re right, please forgive me. Let’s put the spot light back on you.
What’s this charade the judges are playing by sentencing these people for decades again? Obviously ten or more years is a short time. What’s the grift?
They’ve given the defendants of 1/6 every opportunity to receive minimal sentencing, often going well under what the prosecutors have asked for, foregoing reasonable enhancements, and every other leniency. Some have also walked due to biased judges. This is a popular criticism, it’s not exactly a fringe opinion.
These are primarily upper middle class individuals and their cases are political. We don’t see such leniency and bias employed with working class convictions. They are also defendants on the right - heck, many times the US simply assassinates people on the left before the can become defendants! However for a different comparison, we have seen terrorism charges actually wielded against eco-protestors in the US (unlike with Briggs).
I hope that is sufficient, because this is starting to feel like I’m being sea-lioned.
I think the point is that people perceived your first post as a statement coming from a right wing conspiracy nut. With this post it’s clear that you mean that there is a political bias in favour of the defendant.

That’s a bold claim. People such as…?

A bullshit term made up so people can pretend to be victims when other people ask them questions. It’s not “sea-lioning” when you come out of your little bubble for a few minutes and nobody has any idea what the fuck you’re talking about.

they’re sorry they failed. Sorry they got caught, and sorry they’re being held accountable.
what they’re not sorry about is trying to fucking overthrow the lawful government of this country. So yeah.
I still want judges to have discretion to decide appropriate punishment. 3 strikes laws are a good example of mandatory sentencing gone wrong.
Nobody’s talking about mandatory minimum sentencing. I do agree with you BTW.
“I’ve learned my lesson, judge.”
“It’s a trick. Get an axe.”
The judge can call a hearing based on his actions, and re-sentence him. It’s already happened to at least one of these chucklefucks
Do you have a source for this? Not that I don’t trust you, I just want to laugh at these chucklefucks.
The accused are playing their part - if the judge doesn’t play theirs, how is the charade supposed to work?
Sending people to jail for decades: the new charade.
-by your local tinfoil hat
I don’t believe anyone has received a sentence that would have a minimum of even 2 decades, but correct me if I’m wrong.
Oh what a gotcha. 18 years isn’t two decades. Good job 👏
That sounds like a foreign language.
Is common English foreign to you?
gotcha noun
: an unexpected usually disconcerting challenge, revelation, or catch also : an attempt to embarrass, expose, or disgrace someone (such as a politician) with a gotcha
Used in a sentence:
Not this guy. Briggs? That’s one person, and I believe I read he is likely to serve only 10 - again, correct me if I’m wrong.
Totally forgot ten years isn’t a decade.
Man, you really got me by the balls.

22 years. 2.2 decades. Multiple. Decades. Plural.

Oh boy.
What charade is that?
Mostly the double standards in sentencing.
ROFL! I would LOVE an explanation of this.

That’s not an example of double standards. I’m wanting that part explained.
Oh, well, pardon me! lol

Got any examples?
No idea what sea lions have to do with anything, but…. If you say so.
