Joe Biggs, a Proud Boys leader convicted of seditious conspiracy who the government says “served as an instigator and leader” during the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, was sentenced to 17 years in federal prison on Thursday.

It is among the longest sentences in Capitol riot cases. The record is the 18-year sentence given to Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes, also convicted of seditious conspiracy, after prosecutors sought 25 years in federal prison in his case.

    You’re clearly a repeat offender of being a fucking moron. I vote we lock you up for multiple decades.

    Sticking people in cages with violent offenders for smoking a plant is both barbaric and unethical. You attempting to weasel around that and justify this nonsense is exactly what I would expect from someone as fucking stupid as you. Again, AND I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH:

    GET FUCKING WREKT YOU ABSOLUTE NOOB 🖕

        I understand how the law works. I just don’t make pedantic arguments to justify governmental abuse over victimless crimes because I’m not a boot-licking goose-stepper like you.

          If you knew how they work you wouldn’t be crying about reoffending being more penalised

            Ah, yes, because pointing out the generational injustices and ineffectiveness of the war on drugs absolutely makes me a whiny pussy.

            Again, the fact you are willing to justify locking someone in prison over Cannabis use/possession at all shows what a backwards yokel you really are. Put whatever spin on it you like, you are still a moral degenerate no matter how you slice it.

              The only thing degenerating here is your country’s society

                Yeah, because of people like you.

                  Oh so I’m an evil hooded guy manipulating all of America’s society from outside? You’re really overestimating my power

                    No, you’re a small-minded, sycophantic, troll who seems perfectly fine with justifying inhumane behavior based on tired legal justifications that are neither ethical nor contemporaneously representative of the will of the majority.

                    Conservatism is deeply rooted in this kind of ideological sophistry, and in that way you are a perfect representative of your cause. While you may not be from the United States, you embody the same kind of energy as the conservative electorate here that votes against its own interest because they cannot see the forest through the trees.
