This has to be very much a pre-planned insurrection, and not simply a mob mentality situation as a result of Trump et al's speeches.

I still maintain that any part of that mob that invaded the Capitol is equally as guilty in the
eyes of the law as the one brandishing the fire extinguisher.

That would be mandatory life, I believe, and one of the great things about federal life sentences (in this case, at least - not in many others) is that, when they say "life" they mean "LIFE!". No time off for good behaviour, no time off for earning your GED, no time off for finding Jesus, Horus or Cthulu. No SFA.

If you think you must engage in an insurrection, for pity's sake do not allow yourself to be photographed packing a weapon.

I am coming to the conclusion that these yahoos thought that tRump would never allow them to be prosecuted and they could safely be photographed in the course of an insurrection. Unfortunately for them, tRump is mostly concerned that these imbeciles appear low class.

I hope they will have years with nothing else to do but consider their error.

As the days pass, and the realization of just how truly horrifying this situation was, I am more and more convinced that this guy will see serious prison time.

He is one of the prominent faces of the insurrection/attempt on the lives of top members of our constitutional government. Him and goat boy, and zip-tie guy, and podium stealer guy are really the MAGA insurrection poster boys. Public sentiment will continue to condemn them, including many many Republicans.
