Justice doesn't exist in the US anymore.

The entire system has failed and is ready to be devoured by the wolves. Treason has no consequences.

It's too bad more of them didn't get the Babbitt treatment.

US soldiers used to get paid for killing nazis and we were proud of them for it.

Now that the mask is fully off on day 1....

It's likely not quite the case that treason has no consequences now.

Actual treason, no matter how egregious, has and will have no consequences if it benefits Trump.

But at the same time, it's pretty much certain that the definition of "treason" is going to just be shifted a bit so that it only applies to opposition to Trump, but will include everything all the way down to just saying mean things about him. And that will very definitely have consequences, and quite often fatal ones.

Didn't some of those people beat & kill police officers ?

On Jan. 8, 2021, the Associated Press confirmed a fifth death: that of Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick, who died "from injuries suffered during the riot," AP reported. However, a medical examiner's report released in April 2021 said Sicknick suffered strokes and died of natural causes.

Depends on how one reads that. I'm pretty sure had any other cop died in the line of duty after being beaten up would have been called a homicide.

On the one hand, police murder is based. On the other, Jesus fucking Christ, he started day 1 by reviving the brownshirts

[-] 58008@lemmy.world 55 points 1 week ago

We can expect these people to carry out violent assaults now, with the understanding that their violence is tolerated by the fucking president of the country. This is going to get horrific.

He did this deliberately because he needs an extralegal militia to do his bidding.

I don't want a single fucking tear when one of them gets gunned down in the street.

[-] Captainvaqina@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 week ago

True American patriots would celebrate any hero who does that.

Didn't they say they were all Antifa?

[-] Rhoeri@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago

Nazi cowards will protect their own, provided it doesn’t cost any effort. This will only embolden them.
