Never forget: Trump said the Charlottesville racists were ‘very fine people.’
That sound you hear is a million Federalist/Daily Caller/Breitbart readers cracking their knuckles to start typing about what an injustice this is.
I don’t understand the mentality of someone who could do something like this. Maybe he thought it would be like the Blues Brothers, but swapped around where the protesters would all jump out of the way?
He’s probably waiting for a full pardon from Trump.
Probably won’t happen, but I can see a lame duck Trump in November 2020 pardoning all kinds of people just to piss off the left.
There are a lot of very fine people in prison.
Not to mention swapping which side were the Nazis.
Couldn’t have happened to a more worthy recipient.
Excellent. Now if we can start spreading that justice around to other members of his very fine group of people, we might get somewhere.
Prison: where all Nazis belong.
So, like, I still think every prison sentence is a failure of society… but if his prison was one of the last ones abolished, I wouldn’t lose much sleep over it.
Fortunately, I’m not among them. Now. Of course my jail time was more of the Alice’s Restaurant type. Many fine protesters in jail, scattered amongst the vicious fiends, Tramp’s chosen.
Our fathers and uncles fought Nazis. Were they on the wrong side, Donny?
That’s why the life sentence on state charges is important.
Adios a-hole, have fun in the gray bar hotel.
James Alex Fields; a face only a mother could love punch.
They belong in hell but prison is an adequate waiting room.
Trump can only pardon federal crimes (so the first life sentence, this life sentence would have to be pardoned by the governor of South Carolina Virginia).
