In the United States of America, there are two different systems of justice. One for privileged white people, and another for everyone else.
I read an article in the Washington Post that alleges that "there is an internal debate between FBI and prosecutors over whom to charge in the Capitol riots. Some people believe that it may be best not to charge most of those who stormed the Capitol. Officials worry that too many cases could swamp the DC federal courts, while others acknowledge many of those in the Capitol did not commit violence."
If that's the case, methinks the majority of these rioters will not face any criminal charges. In other words, if a person was simply trespassing or going along with the crowd, they will not be charged. Would that not be considered condoning political violence and unlawful behavior?
The excuse of overwhelming the courts is an easy problem to fix. Delegate the cases to other states, or better yet, send these seditionists to Guantanamo.
On a related note, the woman who allegedly helped steal Nancy Pelosi's laptop, and committed the federal crime of plotting to overthrow the US government was just released from jail. Meanwhile, in Michigan, a 15 year old black girl was held in a juvenile detention center for 78 months for not doing her homework.
