A pardoned domestic terrorist with a gun and a problem with law enforcement? What could go wrong?
Here's to hoping for another 1500 "justice by traffic stops."
I’d rather they get educated/rehabbed.
Especially since the people with actual power and greater culpability have only gained from the constant stream of lies that led them to believe this was okay.
America does not rehabilitate prisoners. The U.S. prison system is entirely about retribution. So that was never going to happen.

ACA still B, though, even if in this particular case the victim was a terrorist.
Fascists should be getting shot because they're fascists, not because cops are violent incompetent bastards who indiscriminately murder people without consequence.

It’s almost as though his supporters are a bunch of violent extremists.

Have none of you any empathy? What about the feelings of this cop who had to shoot one of his brothers because the cameras were on, did you think about that?
I have a feeling cops would shoot each other all the time if they thought they could. Especially if it's a white cop shooting a black cop. The whole "brotherhood" thing is performative. I've had the misfortune of doing ride-alongs with cops working for a local TV station. They can't wait to tell you how all the other cops suck.
Here in St Louis they just shoot each other for fun

Thanks to lifelong mental illness I only started developing more than a marginal sense of real empathy in my 30s, and it's an extremely limited resource. So unfortunately I don't have any to spare for the police.
I'm still working on my natural tendancy to paint with a broad brush, which is more than I can say about the cops.

On the one hand, the usual American Police Brutality. On the other hand, one Trump-loving criminal less on the street.
He shouldn't have resisted
He would still be alive if he was still in jail
He was only sentenced to six months. He’d be dead anyway.
Oh that's good
"Yes, I am untouchable, the cops can't do jack sh---"
That's a good start, but we have to speed up that pace.
Oh so these guys supported Trump after all? Whatever happened to them being Antifa and BLM?
trump pardoned all the antifas and made it terrorism at the same time
I don't feel good that this was my reaction, but I stand by it:
When Trump sent his mob of terrorists into the Capitol building to stop Democracy, he wasn't sending his best and brightest.
I mean, he was. Those are his best and brightest.
Wait, you mean those Jan 6ers aren't upstanding citizens? What a surprise...

I guess this is the kind of shit that happens when you ask the Monkey's Paw to be pardoned on your last wish...
Hey you should never celebrate cops killing somebody who...
Oh? You mean the Jan 6 terrorists who literally attacked cops and then got presidential pardons? Those guys?
Oh yeah okay then.
Hmm, interesting.
So I had Salisbury steak with mashed potatoes tonight. Anybody else have anything good?

Just have Trump pardon the bullet out of him.
That's one.
In 2023, Huttle was sentenced to six months in federal prison and a year of supervised release for taking part in the riot at the U.S. Capitol.
back to being a riot again is it
Hope he's somewhere hot right now.
Here's to every single one of them meeting a similar end very, very soon.
Gosh, that's....
Police violence is still Police violence even when it's against insurrectionists. I don't know the exact details here, but if it's like previous police shootings, there was probably a less violent solution.

Trump directly killed this man, if he didn't pardon him then none of this would have happened.....
Some gifts just wrap themselves, don’t they?
