Ex-Miami Proud Boy Convicted on Felony Charges for January 6 Capitol Riot

A onetime Miami Proud Boy and former Miami-Dade Republican Executive Committee member has been convicted of two felonies for storming the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.

As a mob of Trump supporters descended upon the Capitol on January 6, 2021, Gabriel Garcia hopped on Facebook live to record himself inside the building while he taunted House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to "come out and play." Sporting a red Make America Great Again cap, he allegedly encouraged other members of the crowd to flood into the building and called police "Fucking traitors."

The former U.S. Army captain and ex-Proud Boy leader was one of the first South Floridians nabbed in connection with the riot.

The local Miami media is cheering this bullcrap conviction, continuing the BIG LIE that the mostly peaceful protest on January 6 was an "insurrection".

You cannot hate the media enough.

When is the Committee going after Ray Epps? Numerous vids exist of him and others with bull horns encouraging protesters to storm the Capitol bldg. Who paid his and others in his group’s expenses and travel?

If the quotes are accurate regarding his language he sounds more like a leftwing loon than a conservative.

Agent provocateur.

This guy was doing the same thing as Epps according to this.

In the 1960s there was the Black Panthers trying to gin up a race war... in concert with the White Weather Underground and Manson. They were theoretically on opposite sides but in reality, all were Marxists looking to agitate as many people as possible in the hope that the chaos would weaken the thin veneer of civilization and give them an opportunity to seize power.
The folks that tore down barriers, broke windows, etc., who got there before the Trump crowd did, were of the same sort as the BP and WUO, and could very well have gotten off the same busses.

The folks that attended the rally and came later are innocent but the same is probably not true of those who were already at the Capitol - why were they there except to cause trouble? They had no idea that the crowd from the Washington monument was going to arrive. They had already started to pushing their way in before Trump’s speech was even over. If the folks from Trump’s speech had instead left after the speech, and never went to the capitol, what would the first agitators have done? Was their plan foiled or altered by all those who arrived unknowingly and got in the way?

How can they convict anyone when there’s potential exculpatory evidence out there that is in the process of being released?
