'It's not fair!' Capitol rioter who violated Pelosi's office screams at judge over pretrial jailing

[Generic Other]

An Arkansas man who stormed the U.S. Capitol building on Jan. 6 and went viral after photos circulated showing him with his feet up on Nancy Pelosi's desk, appeared before a federal judge this Thursday for a status hearing.

According to NBC4 investigative reporter Scott MacFarlane, Barnett began "screaming" at attorneys and the judge, saying that it's "unfair" that he's been locked up "for a whole month."

3. Such a snowflake!

[orangecrush]

57. Got that right.

[bottomofthehill]

2. He should get used to it.

He is going to be behind bars for a while.

[TheBlackAdder]

29. Funny. . .

.

[Cha]

88. Yeah, that Shit Eating Grin Got Wiped

Off his Face pretty darn FAST!

[Butterflylady]

71. You're right. Doesn't he realize what ever time he spends in jail now

Will be credited as time served. So he should be happy.

[Escurumbele]

78. Hmm, that makes it 9 years and 11 months only...good deal :)

Think before you act moron, you have no right to complain, yu thought you were going to get away with what you did? Well, there are no decent words to describe you.

[MagickMuffin]

4. Speaker Pelosi has a quarter for his defense

I think it might be the one Barnett left her that fateful insurrectionists day.

[SunSeeker]

67. HA!

[JustAnotherGen]

5. At least he's alive

He should just be happy he didn't get shot or have a capitol police officer kneel on him until he died.

Like - what's the problem?

[Rustyeye77]

6. He's not handling this well.

Dude, you f**ked up.

[Claire Oh Nette]

7. I've already called the Waaambulance

"It's not fair" is not, as far as I know, a legal position nor a get-out-of-jail-free card.

Why, he could pay his bail. Oh, wait. He's flight risk.

Bummer your seditious participation in a failed Coup d'etat is inconveniencing you.

He's still got his entitled white privilege on, I see.

[Dawson Leery]

8. The great satan will never accept responsibility for their crimes.

[Wounded Bear]

9. Like most snowflakes, his concept of "fair" has been a bit skewed by privelege...

[underpants]

17. Waiting IN jail for a trial??? Who ever has to do THAT?!??!

I mean the fact that he was even charged is an outrage.

[PatSeg]

10. "It's not fair"???

Well, isn't he some kind of special? What did he think would happen when he got arrested?

[world wide wally]

11. Nothing like forethought and planning ahead.

Dumbfuck

[Aristus]

12. He's just echoing Trump's frequent Twitter whining:

"Very Unfair!"

[John Ludi]

13. Awwwww...

someone needs his binky!

[Kaleva]

14. And these are the folks that some think could overthrow our government.

[UpInArms]

15. Whatever will he think when he is locked up for 240 months?

20 years ...

Idiot

[JimGinPA]

16. I Think Yelling At The Lawyers And The Judge Isn't A Very Effective Strategy

They probably frown on that.

[luvtheGWN]

53. Was a contempt charge forthcoming?

[lagomorph777]

18. You're really gonna love 240 months, Bozo.

That's the penalty for insurrection.

[Midnightwalk]

32. 240 months in prison to go

240 months to go
You did the crime
Now do the time
240 months in prison to go

[Mr.Bill]

33. Just 239 left with credit for time served.

[Generic Other]

92. Ouch!

Singing the blues.

[C_U_L8R]

19. Fair? Is it fair to violently overturn an election?

Throw every book at this traitor.

[RockRaven]

20. The best part is the last straw which caused his blowup was him misunderstanding something

because he's a big fucking dummy.

He started yelling because the lawyers and judge were talking about May 4th, and he apparently thought that meant he wouldn't get bail/pretrial release, or even have a chance to, until then. But they weren't talking about that. The May 4th date had something to do with discovery/evidence.

His lawyers could have addressed the issue of pretrial release... if he hadn't derailed the proceeding. Oops.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

21. Richard Barnett, it's not fair that your fellow Americans have been terrorized with your stunt...

and it's not fail that people were killed and not fair that we're all paying the bills to repair your damage, both to federal property and court costs for prosecuting all your rotten asses.

It's also not fair that D.C. is still in partial lockdown so visitors can't fully enjoy their Capitol.

KY.......

[Grasswire2]

22. Let's remember the ultra powerful stun gun he hid in his pants leg.

He's dangerous.

[Botany]

23. Not the same as sitting in his garage in Bug's Ass Arkansas drinking bud and listening to hate ....

... talk radio then being in a real judges court room. In Ohio felony breaking and entering is 6 to 12 months. Hope he
enjoyed himself.




Edit: He could be looking @ 11 years.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

24. Oh fuck off Barnett

Tell that to the dead police officers' families.

[Buns_of_Fire]

25. Cheer up, Sparky. With any luck, they'll credit you with time served.

So you'll probably only have to do 239 more months.

[58Sunliner]

26. Isn't he making new friends and learning new hobbies? Whiny pos.

[Generic Other]

93. Making license plates is such a great hobby too

[mucifer]

27. I want to see a video of it

Sorry I just do

[Midnightwalk]

65. Right?

They could run the federal courts for a month if they put it on pay per view.

[Johnny2X2X]

28. He doesn't get it

He's facing years in prison. The several weeks of jail are just a warmup.

Not a one has expressed real remorse. It's always them that are the victims.

They attacked America, they are traitors, show some acknowledgement of that and it will get better for them.

I'd love for the judge to speak to him and say, "Mr. Barnett, you face charges that could put you in prison for 20 years and you're complaining about a whole month in jail."

It's actually been closer to 2 months for Mr. Barnett, glad, he hasn't learned a thing, let him rot.

[Prof. Toru Tanaka]

83. Hopefully, his confinement is absolute misery....

I hope he mouths the wrong person off in GP and gets a good beatdown for it. fuck this traitor

[Johnny2X2X]

87. His life is in chambles

He's been locked up for 8 weeks now, during that 8 weeks his bills aren't getting paid, his life is being disrupted in every way.

He was probably hoping he could go home and then return to normal life while months go by before a plea deal is reached where he'd do some community service and pay a fine.

[Yavin4]

30. Gitmo prisoners: "Really, bro?" n/t

[irisblue]

48. a difference in tonality?/sarcasm font here

Link to tweet

?s=20

[Tribetime]

31. I wish there was Court TV so they could broadcast all these trials

[Solomon]

76. Yeah. Where the hell are they when you need them?

[kairos12]

34. Get more than one jumpsuit. You will need them.

[Aviation Pro]

38. And Ramen noodles

Lots and lots of Ramen noodles.

[ashredux]

35. They thought they were above any laws....but reality bites

[Mr.Bill]

36. He's a good prospect to turn snitch.

Prosecutors love his type.

[NoSheep]

39. Ooooh!

[Mr.Bill]

41. Actually, all these assholes who are friends with

those that have gotten arrested and released should be thinking they are all potential snitches.

[Aviation Pro]

37. Fuck your feelings

Scum American.

[dlk]

40. There's nothing like a cold dose of reality

Sometimes privilege dies a slow, painful death.

[ad121rome]

42. Gitmo

I agree. Put them all in Gitmo and then turn the facility over to Cuba. Let them have a real taste of socialism. That would serve them right.

[erronis]

52. Why are you penalizing Cuba?

I guess that's a bit of a double-entendre. Cuba was already penalized by the US and Gitmo.

I'd much rather they were in a max security pen in the US so they can know that other real citizens are out there, walking free.

And then turn Guantanamo back to the Cubans, after massive US-funded clean-up.

[groundloop]

73. Cuba is not what most people think (I've been there and have seen it for myself)

Much of Cuba's economic problems are caused by the US embargo, which I hope President Biden will do away with.

[Bigredhunk]

43. Shutty

Pop your teeth in and go do your time dipshit.

[SKKY]

44. Womp Womp!

[C Moon]

45. Meaning: it's not fair that he's not being put on a pedestal like he thought he was going to be.

These dumb shits probably thought they were going to lead a new country.
Instead, they'll be leading new lives.

[Martin68]

46. I love it! Slap on a couple moreyhears of hard labor.

[DFW]

47. Wait til it has been a decade

THEN let him whine about unfair.

[Stuart G]

49. The fool doesn't have a clue...according to Stu

[onecaliberal]

50. Is it wrong that I get joy from this?

Criminals get locked up!

[AllaN01Bear]

51. well wahhhhh. should not have attennded a innsurection u dern fool.

[movingviolation]

54. Boo-fucking-hoo!

Die in jail, dumb-ass...and all your Nazi-Q-bugaloo buddies too.

[IcyPeas]

55. It's Not Fair!!

[Grokenstein]

56. Calm him down with his own stun gun.

He said that he was ready to die, not that he was ready to face consequences!

[Vinca]

58. I was in kind of a shitty mood until I read this. Hope the judge adds on more time for contempt.

Hey Barnett - you want white bread with your bologna dinner sandwich or white bread?

[Generic Other]

94. Glad to cheer you up

It's hard not to snicker, before you outright laugh out loud!

[SpankMe]

59. Dude can eat my ass. n/t

[Piasladic]

70. no way that guy is getting near my ass

I have household appliances that can do the job better and neater. Dude should eat his own ass...that or his mom's, whichever is closer.

[rustysgurl]

60. Play stupid games.

Win stupid prizes.

[Initech]

62. Exactly!

[Initech]

61. I really don't care, do U?

[CaptainTruth]

63. Revoke their citizenship.

I realize there's probably no legal means to do it, but I feel like every one of these traitors who attacked their own government should have their citizenship revoked.

[Bird Lady]

64. Why do these idiots think the laws are fine for everyone else

and not them, when they are called to pay the piper? They whine about the unfairness of it all.
Now if the person waiting in jail were a democrat or a black man, these idiots would say the treatment
was justified or suggest the punishment should be worse.

If they give no quarter to others they can expect no quarter given to them.

[Renew Deal]

66. Didn't he leave a written threat on her desk?

[Fritz Walter]

68. If this case goes to trial

And I’ll bet you half a peach it does, I would be honored to be empaneled on that jury — I’d even pay my own travel-and-maintenance expenses. It’d be my civic duty!
And I promise not to pre-judge, to weigh all the facts provided as evidence objectively. I’d just like to witness firsthand his whining and other totally inappropriate behavior in court. (Quick questions: do they allow popcorn in jury boxes? How about a juror using a smartphone to capture video of the defendant’s antics and his lawyer’s futile attempts to muzzle this mad dog? Hypothetically speaking, of course!)

[twin_ghost]

69. They run this place like a jail!

[rurallib]

72. Is this the guy that pissed on Pelosi's office? Sis he think he was playing a fucking game?

Did he think we'd all just have a great laugh and go home?

Hope he never sees another day outside of prison.

[yuiyoshida]

74. He's an American terrorist

He deserves whatever he gets.

[George II]

75. Reminds me of a video of a white businessman at an airport (think it was Orlando) being arrested....

....for something. He fought and they tackled him. While he was on the ground he started screaming "you're treating me like a black person!"

[D23MIURG23]

77. Next time dont break the fucking law.

Duh.

What is it with these people? They really thought they could attack congress with impunity? How are they surprised by this outcome?

[Hekate]

80. Is he the one who also peed in her office? Or the one who took a dump there?

“Unfair”?! The mind reels.

[turbinetree]

81. Did someone tell him this..........

[keithbvadu2]

82. Trump's terrorists on the job

Trump's terrorists on the job

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100215160638

Insurrectionist James Rahm arrested. Says he was in Speaker Pelosi's office. "Pissed in her office."

And some of them crapped in the building and spread their feces on the walls

[dilby]

84. What's not fair is your burden on the Tax Payer.

You going off with your COSPLAY buddies and storming the Capitol cost the tax payers Millions, and now you are costing us in the legal system and eventually the prison system. It’s a price I will gladly pay though, even though it’s not fair to me.

[keithbvadu2]

85. D'ya suppose he is a secret leftist? Repub meme.

D'ya suppose he is a secret leftist?

[Marie Marie]

86. Once he gets to an actual prison, he will make lots of new friends.

I'm sure he will join a prison White Supremacist gang - and they will all get along wonderfully.

[BlueStater]

89. He thought he was such a big shot when he had his feet on Pelosi's desk.

Turns out he’s just another entitled crybaby white man who thinks rules shouldn’t apply to him.

[BobTheSubgenius]

90. He seems to need a lot of remedial work on the law and the justice system that administers it.

After that, he can learn about the 3rd piece of the puzzle, the prison system. Sorry, man there's no "Because I Don't Want To Be In Jail" exception.

[Tommy Carcetti]

91. "His girlfriend gave up her toe!" nt

[Buckeye_Democrat]

95. Pray about it, Barnett!

All you need to do is believe what you WANT to believe, such as Trump winning the election, and then "poof"... you'll be out!

It's all on YOU and your lack of faith in the world of make-believe!

[Blue Owl]

96. Hey Barnett, your fat piece of shit ex-President doesn't care about you
