Note to Insurrectionists

It’s kind of difficult to take you seriously as “courageous patriots” who were going to overthrow the US government, when you end up begging a judge to please send you home to your mommy and daddy.

Just sayin’ is all.

I mean if their extremely poor spelling and grammar are any indication. And seriously if you are committing a serious crime, don't take fucking selfies and post them on social media!

The insurrectionists poor spelling and grammar could be the basis for the fantasy Star Trek episode where Capt Kirk deciphers the E Plineesta (sic) -the pledge of allegiance

These people are, by and large, as pathetic as they are dangerous, and maybe more so. "Overthrow the US government!" Good God.

ISIS would have a better chance of accomplishing that, and they have no chance at all. At least ISIS isn't cosplaying GI Joe meets Red Dawn.

The new AG can approve adding the felony murder counts and domestic terrorism specifications to all the appropriate folks.

Tuberville and the two unnamed senators who met the night before plus the reps who gave tours should be very very scared that in a week they will be doing perp walks as well.

All those courageous he-man master race partisans didn't dare do anything when the person in charge of security wasn't the former guy. They don't want to play if the game isn't stacked in their favor.
