I dunno ...trying to burn down a police station with the officers inside? That might qualify, ya’ think?
Toppling and graffiti statues, demands to ‘defund the police’ in and of itself?
The no-go zones?
There’s lots and lots of fodder here.
Arson, a serious crime. Often coupled with attempted murder when people are involved in the target building. Very serious local charges. Makes me wonder why we're talking about Federal charges, other than the higher ups in the conspiracy. But in some locales in this nation, arson, attempted murder, like assault just doesn't count if the arsonists, attempted murders, assaulters are of the proper political conviction. Despite spending half my time in the Chicago area, I tend to think these things should be a local issue, and if the populace doesn't consider arson a crime if only police are the victims, it's a local problem. Like shootings in Chicago where BlackLivesDon'tMatter. But there is a Federal role here, I suppose. Interstate conspiracies, that's pure Federal and thely should hit them hard.
