Attorney General Bill Barr encouraged federal prosecutors to choose the most serious charges for those arrested for violent crimes during protests, including by way of a rarely used sedition law that would charge the demonstrators with plotting to overthrow the U.S. government.
Wake me up when Barr, et alia, feel the same way about the pale, perfidious Bundy Types with storehouses of guns/ammo, extremely stupid ideas, and raging ignorance of the US Constitution.
Well, maybe they can retry passing the 2017 bills saying it’s okay to run over protesters.
Lawmakers in North Dakota, North Carolina, Florida, Tennessee and Texas proposed bills that would make it legal for drivers to hit protesters if the driver did not do so willfully, according to Mick Bullock, a spokesman for the National Conference of State Legislatures.
So would a government official encouraging some people to stock up on ammunition to fight a coming civil war be considered sedition? Or just marching while chanting in support of black lives? Some clarification would be helpful.
