These fuckers wanted to murder, or be part of a mob which murdered. It's a historical accident, contingent on things outside of their control, that they failed and thus are only being charged with parading, or disrupting a proceeding, or property crimes. Fuck 'em all.

Scary to remember some of the commentary - that she was less than a mere minute away from genuinely mortal danger.

As long as I kept thinking of them by their names instead of their titles, I was cold with horror, but that part about the line of succession didnt hit me. And then it did.
