Discussion: Sessions: Charlottesville Attack Meets Definition of Domestic Terrorism

When even Sessions is forced to admit this, you know it’s bad

“It does meet the definition of domestic terrorism in our statute. We’re pursuing it with the Department of Justice in every way we can make it, make a case,” he said, reluctantly.

These are, indeed, very trying times for Jeffery Beauregard Session III. Never before has he had to try a white man for his Nazi beliefs and racists actions. For him, the application of justice from this direction is uncharted territory.

At the end of Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, Shirer the author states that he thought that it was obvious that this was the tipping point, the Judiciary refusing to punish Nazi’s for their domestic acts of terror leading to their taking of power. This is where the Nazi fervor took hold, when Nazi’s after Nazi was acquitted of their crimes of intimidation and violence against their critics and civilized society was effectively lost.
This would be a good time to protest with all of your mite, should they go all snowflake-like lenient on the fetid scum who terrorized Charlottesville.

Well the third grade deflection that other people do it too, didn’t even impress their fellow third graders. So they have no choice but to up the ante to at least a proper sixth grade response.

You’re not the only one who has gotten cynical. My first thought upon reading “It does meet the definition of domestic terrorism in our statute,” was that Sessions would follow it up with something along the lines of “So, we’re already hard at work revising that definition so as to exempt these kinds of expressions of frustration.”

Speaking of cynicism, what does it say when I am mildly heartened that our Attorney General makes a statement that at least sounds like we follow the rule of law…
