It's also hilarious that Trump pardoned 600+ violent offenders who participated in the Jan 6 riots. Like, how is DC safer with people who assaulted cops back on the streets?
Do you ever ask this question about other "violent" offenders being returned to the community on a daily basis? Or, are you only upset about who these people are?
Yes, I ask it about every convicted violent offender.
What violent offender(s), again, are you talking about? Trump only pardoned/commuted the (1,500 or so, not 600) non-violent ones, meaning there was no charge or enhancement for violence on their conviction in the kangaroo courts in DC. What is the recidivism rate/data you are concerned about as to those pardoned in DC?
I really don't think you are well-informed as to either (a) crime in DC, or (b) Trump's pardons based on your speculative input here. Surely if you are right though, at least one of the felons pardoned/commuted related to J6 has been arrested, if not convicted for violent crime in DC since Jan 20 of this year, right?
You are uninformed. The TOTAL convictions of Jan 6 was the roughly 1,500 people. He gave a blanket pardon to ALL OF THEM. You can read it yourself (here):Quote:
Acting pursuant to the grant of authority in Article II, Section 2, of the Constitution of the United States, I do hereby:
(a) commute the sentences of the following individuals convicted of offenses related to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021, to time served as of January 20, 2025:
Stewart Rhodes
Kelly Meggs
Kenneth Harrelson
Thomas Caldwell
Jessica Watkins
Roberto Minuta
Edward Vallejo
David Moerschel
Joseph Hackett
Ethan Nordean
Joseph Biggs
Zachary Rehl
Dominic Pezzola
Jeremy Bertino
(b) grant a full, complete and unconditional pardon to all other individuals convicted of offenses related to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021;
The Attorney General shall administer and effectuate the immediate issuance of certificates of pardon to all individuals described in section (b) above, and shall ensure that all individuals convicted of offenses related to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021, who are currently held in prison are released immediately. The Bureau of Prisons shall immediately implement all instructions from the Department of Justice regarding this directive.
I further direct the Attorney General to pursue dismissal with prejudice to the government of all pending indictments against individuals for their conduct related to the events at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021. The Bureau of Prisons shall immediately implement all instructions from the Department of Justice regarding this directive.
Matthew Huttle, was recently shot and killed by law enforcement in Indiana during a traffic stop just days after receiving a pardon for his role in the Capitol riot. Huttle was previously charged with a littany of crimes (battery, DUI, child abuse, etc.)
Peter Schwartz, another pardoned individual, had a jaw-dropping criminal history of 38 prior convictions going back to 1991. He he assaulted police officers with pepper spray on Jan. 6.
David Daniel, who currently faces child pron charges, pled guilty to assaulting officers on Jan 6 and was pardoned for that crime.
Daniel Ball of Florida threw an "explosive device that detonated upon at least 25 officers" during the Capitol riot and has a previous charge of domestic violence.
Andrew Taake of Texas pleaded guilty to assaulting police officers with bear spray and a "metal whip" on Jan. 6.
I could go on. There are HUNDREDS of violent offenders on Jan 6 that had prior charges of violent offenses and Trump pardoned all of them (for their crimes on Jan 6).
You are literally the uniformed one.
So crime in Indiana counts as DC?
So that's the logic? I don't know who;s uninformed, but I can tell which poster is unable to comprehend the english language.
