A Way to Justice for the real J6 Victims? [View all]

Now that Herr Trump has opened the prisons (not borders) and released the convicted J6 TRAITORS, plus given them pardon and commutations, I had a question.

While these traitors have escaped criminal justice (just like their Messiah), can the REAL VICTIMS of J6 sue THEM? Why can't the 100+ injured police officers sue these domestic terrorists directly?

We see all the time where individuals rightly sue police for malfeasance. So why not have the police sue the criminals?

Sure, they have "pardons" or whatever now, but don't forget that the bar for civil actions is much lower. There are tens of thousands of hours of video evidence of these crimes. Federal agencies have a database of these traitors.

I have no idea what the statute of limitations is for something like this. But I could get at least some satisfaction from seeing these people "Guiliani'd" (My term for being sued to hell and back).

People died and were permanently injured. Police officers had to retire with PTSD. I'm beyond outraged. There has to be some kind of class action lawsuit against these individuals and organizations.

Why not?
