In reply to the discussion: Rioter Who Stole Pelosi's Podium Identified as Florida Dad [View all]ahoysrcsm
(1,167 posts)116. As you know, we cannot apply the law to a person until after they commit a crime.
It is a very simple process. We don't have a "pre-crime" division. Everyone has a right to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. What that means differs from person to person.
The big question, and most may not realize how bad the consequence is for "trespassing in the capitol building," is that all can now be charged with murder after the deaths of 4 people as well as a Capitol Police Officer. Who thought a trespassing charge, we will ignore treason and sedation from the conversation, trespassing at the capitol should now carry a murder charge.

Maybe he'll use the "I was pushed into the Capitol building" defense, that I seem to be hearing
