    So the charges, crimes, evidence, and jury don’t matter. It’s all cleared because bOtH sIdEs nonsense. Hey judge I have an idea, if other people commit crimes then prosecute them. I wonder if he’s close to realizing why you don’t see much on the ‘other side’ (the why is that there is no violent far left committing crimes. Or if you want to be pedantic, it’s incredibly, vastly minuscule compared to the violent far right.)

    I’m starting to understand better and better how countries fall into strongmen and fascism. It’s unreal.

    “Prosecuting only members of the far right and ignoring members of the far left leads to the troubling conclusion that the government believes it is permissible to physically assault and injure Trump supporters to silence speech,” Carney wrote in his order.

    Did he just say the far right and Trump supporters are one and the same? Lolol.

      I’m not necessarily saying there should be a violent far left committing crimes. . . but the right keep trying to both-sides their terrorism shit, that’s how you get a self-fulfilling prophecy.

      When only one side is willing to engage in violence, that is the side that will win. Every time.
