Not a law against lying to cops? Iām sure that news to Lindsay Lohan.
Lying to cops isnāt wrong, pedophilia and sexual assault are okā¦pray tell, what next will I learn from my God-fearing Conservative friends, Iām afraid to ask.
itās obstructing a police officer and/ or obstructing a investigation
he grabbed my wrist, he spun and we ended up on the floorā¦so he pulled me down on top of him.ā
Thatās not how a āchoke bombā works.
āWhen the police are investigating a case, suspects of crimes will say misleading things, and apparently thatās exactly what happened here on the part of both Mr. Gianforte and his campaign,ā Lambert, a Republican, told the Associated Press.
āIt is not a crime per se to lie to the cops.ā
Anybody in the White House wanna test that hypothesis with Mr. Mueller?
And the Grand Old Pustule party oozes along for another day.
When the AG himself is a perjuring scumbag, who knows, maybe this particular piece of judicial nonsense actually has some legs?

Goddamn I hate this fucking country. If only my ancestors would have had the good sense to tough it out in Norway.
Edit: prescience would have been needed, as opposed to good sense. Many of our ancestors left Europe and came to America because much of Europe was a classist, poverty stricken hellhole. They could not have known that a place like Norway would become the rich, socialist paradise that it is today.
They are likely tempted to try it.
Iām sure quite a few already have. And at least one, George Papadopoulos, has already discovered how that works out.
And some already have ā¦
Whoās going to be first to quote Captain Renault about an R who misled authorities. Hahaha
Trump: He said vs Fake News. No contest.
Wellā¦ since you asked.
James Dobson recommends nude showering with your son to stave off homosexuality.
There is a next stepā¦ probably people in the inner circle already practice.
Montana Code Sec. 45-7-205(1)(a), (2) (false reports to law enforcement authorities), available at http://leg.mt.gov/bills/mca/45/7/45-7-205.htm
āA person commits the offense under this section if the person knowingly gives false information to any law enforcement officer with the purpose to implicate anotherā¦A person convicted under this section shall be fined not to exceed $500 or be imprisoned in the county jail for any term not to exceed 6 months, or both.ā
Proof of a culpable mental state is required for a conviction under this statute, whereas a āper seā crime requires no such proof. So Lambert is technically correct. Heās also being deliberately misleading because the general public is unlikely to be familiar with the legal definition of the term. Most people will read what he said as, āNo crime was committed.ā
In my opinion, there is/was enough of a basis to prosecute Gianforte for violating this law. He had sufficient motiveāavoiding prosecutionāand DID implicate Jacobs in his statement.
One of the reputable watchdog groups obviously not Judicial Watch ought to file a complaint with the house ethics committee. Or the committee to protect journalists certainly ought to weigh in.
Perfectly consistent with the GOP(and the Russian Bolshevik) credo: The ends justify the means.
When youāre a billionaire they let you do it.
