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.

(12,248 posts)Were involved. I'm fed up with the bullshit of not able to release that information. Bullshit! Congress can release the names of those that requested pardons. I'm sick and fuckin tired of Schiff and others toying around with this fuckin shit. Release the names!

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.
