Terrorists break into US Capitol Building

People tend to forget the Byzantine Empire was a thing.

They were just the Roman Empire. Byzantine was a later invented term.

Apparently some prisons are refusing to release J6'ers.

That should end well if accurate.

This is likely due to them not receiving the proper documentation yet. They can't just let someone go because of a news report. Bureaucracy and all.

True.

I mean, they were heretics that used levied bread in the Eucharist and culturally different from the West, but still has direct lineage to the OG Roman Empire.

What does the tax on bread have to do with it?

Hundreds of rioters accused of violently assaulting police at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, were pardoned Monday by President Trump, despite remarks from his allies in recent weeks condemning those defendants.

More than 600 people who invaded the Capitol that day as lawmakers sought to certify the results of the 2020 election were charged with assaulting, resisting or impeding law enforcement — and nearly 200 of them did so using a deadly or dangerous weapon.

More...

• Violent offenders recidivated at a higher rate than non-violent offenders. Over an eight-year follow-up period, nearly two-thirds (63.8%) of violent offenders released in 2010 were rearrested, compared to more than one-third (38.4%) of non-violent offenders.
• Violent offenders recidivated more quickly than non-violent offenders. The median time to rearrest was 16 months for violent offenders and 22 months for non-violent offenders.
• Among offenders who were rearrested, violent offenders were rearrested for a violent offense at a higher rate than non-violent offenders, 38.9 percent compared to 22.0 percent.

I'm afraid Trump has a few Willie Horton problems in his future.

Biden pardoned like over a dozen people for "possible" crimes. You fuckers lost whatever high ground you thought you had the second he did that. Trump did the right thing by pardoning the hostages.

[Gelston]

Biden commuted the sentence of a guy who killed two FBI agents execution style after they were already shot and helpless. This guy was already recently refused parole and the FBI said he should not be let out. Don't try to go at Trump about pardoning violent offenders.

Trump did the right thing by pardoning the hostages.

Based on criminal recidivism patterns, it is a near statistical certainty that one or more of the hundreds of J6 rioters freed by Trump will commit crimes that they would have been unable to commit if Trump had not granted clemency, and there is a high probability that some of those crimes will involve violence.

During the campaign, Trump repeatedly stated that he would exercise presidential clemency for the J6 rioters on a case-by-case basis. Instead, on his first day in office, he let them all go. He told Hannity earlier this week that it would have been "cumbersome" to evaluate each rioter's case on its own merits. Trump said, "It would be very, very cumbersome to go and look. You know how many people we’re talking about? 1,500 people." Based on law of large numbers, Trump should expect to hear those words replayed.

So, based on recidivism patterns, the double murderer Biden released will kill again?
