Of course, the Judge who imposes the sentence may be a bleeding-heart leftist, and may dismiss this crap as a ‘youthful indiscretion’ (whatever) but I think it would send a strong message if they get the maximum sentence allowed by law.

Anarchists should be imprisoned!

“The carcereal state?”

“80 years?”

She probably deserves a couple, and I hope she gets them.

I am required to reply to this thread, just to show off my latest tagline-(for the last few months, I think).

Maybe the dumb bitch will get out of jail in 50 years - just in time to celebrate Barron Trump’s re-election as President... :-)

“Left behind was broken glass from the windows of cafes, restaurants and banks”

yeah, like that “left behind broken glass” just broke all by itself, right?

Good. Terrorists should face decades in prison. If they are going to threaten and intimidate the innocent and commit arson, the only time they see the light of day should be during their one hour of exercise outside their cells.

...Our experience in police custody [that day] was totally dehumanising. We were kettled, treated like animals and denied basic human rights and dignity,” she recollects. “People were forced to urinate on the streets and denied water and food...

Sounds like the Basic Training I went through.

Well if you dont want to be charged with rioting you probably shouldn’t engage in rioting. Seems pretty simple.

Reality is a bitch but it cuts both ways. In the 1960s NYS passed the Rockefeller Drug laws that mandated very heavy sentences for even first time low level offenders. What happened? Juries would not convict and eventually the law had to be gutted. Eighty years is the type sentence that will bring jury nullification in a place like DC. Make it four years and everybody will get convicted and the point will be made.

‘The status quo is extermination’

These idiots need a history lesson. Or at least a meet-up with any survivors of the Holocaust. Their drama is waaaaaay out of proportion for these times we are now living.

Wasn’t it Singapore that used a cane whip as punishment for some crimes. Works for me.
