[QUOTE="Holliday1881, post: 317949, member: 1292"] He, and his comrades, should get their necks stretched. That's the proper price for Treason. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.yahoo.com/news/man-faces-1st-sentencing-felony-042649116.html[/URL] [SIZE=7][B]Capitol rioter who breached Senate gets 8 months for felony[/B][/SIZE] MICHAEL TARM Mon, July 19, 2021, 12:26 AM A Florida man who breached the U.S. Senate chamber carrying a Trump campaign flag was sentenced Monday to eight months behind bars, the first resolution for a felony case in [URL='https://apnews.com/article/congress-confirm-joe-biden-78104aea082995bbd7412a6e6cd13818']the Capitol insurrection[/URL]. Paul Allard Hodgkins apologized and said he was ashamed of his actions on Jan 6. Speaking calmly from a prepared text, he described being caught up in the euphoria as he walked down Washington's most famous avenue, then followed a crowd of hundreds into the Capitol. “If I had any idea that the protest ... would escalate (the way) it did ... I would never have ventured farther than the sidewalk of Pennsylvania Avenue,” Hodgkins told the judge. He added: “This was a foolish decision on my part.” Prosecutors had asked for Hodgkins to serve 18 months behind bars, saying in a recent filing that he, “like each rioter, contributed to the collective threat to democracy” by forcing lawmakers to temporarily abandon their certification of Joe Biden’s 2020 election victory over President Donald Trump and to scramble for shelter from [URL='https://apnews.com/article/joe-biden-donald-trump-electoral-college-elections-de812995a8c7cbea5c1de56a3d1aa007']incoming mobs[/URL]. In pronouncing the sentence, Judge Randolph Moss said that Hodgkins had played a role, if not as significant as others, in one of the worst episodes in American history. Still he chose to give Hodgkins a year less in prison. “That was not, by any stretch of the imagination, a protest,” Moss said. “It was … an assault on democracy.” He added: “It left a stain that will remain on us … on the country for years to come.” [/QUOTE]
