He was active duty doing this. After his stay in federal prison, he'll probably spend another huge chunk in Leavenworth.
Yeah, the active duty bit is probably the main reason he got as much time as he got
Military Justice hasn't tried him yet. He will have to go through a separate trial before Military judges.
They won't give this fucker 5 years. More like 20+
And I wonder if, during the military trial, the point will be raised that his marine forebears - many of whom we lost during intense combat - had a very different view of Nazism.
Goddamn right it will.
Oh that dude is capital "F" Fucked
Good. What happened to that air force colonel or whatever that shows up in tacticool gear in the Capitol? Anything ever happen to that guy?
Edit: nvm. Found him. He was retired when he did the invasion. He has been caught and jailed.
Five whole years for a Nazi taking part in an insurrection.
With a previous conviction too.
Good thing he didn't have a dime bag on him or else he might have seen some real jail time.
He's white, that might add a few months at most.
Now a black guy doing a black power salute during the George Floyd protests with a dime bag on him? Put that guy away for life.
If you’re white, the cops just keep your drugs and leave it out of the report.

Depends somewhat on how many minorities there are around to harass. Otherwise they turn to poor teenagers who have a joint in their pocket even if they're white.
That’s fair. They do have a quota to meet after all.
In fact, that guy might die "resisting arrest" face down on the ground with his hands handcuffed behind his back and a knee to the neck
Wait till he gets to the military trial. He was active duty. He’s not done yet.
They don't call it the Beerhall Putsch 2.0 for nothing.
Nazis love Donald Trump. And he loves them back!
If the devil himself loved Trump, he'd love him right back.
I hear there are a lot of nazi types in prison. He should do well in there.
Anyone notice the salute Trump gave mere seconds after the shooting?
He swiftly turned it into a wave/fist and weirdly brought up that it was definitely a fist during his last speech.
I hate Trump just as much as probably you do. I think this was just an honest, putting his hand up to effectively say I’m here. I’m safe. I’m fine. I don’t think we should read into that exact one. Trust me there’s plenty more we can look at of what he’s done wrong.
Ok fair enough, just thought it was strangely straight for an "I'm ok folks" wave.
Tyler deserves it.
