re: A number of J6 criminals pardoned by Trump have since committed other crimes. I'm shocked

quote:

If we rant about judges being too lenient on criminals who then commit other crimes, I don't see why we can't have the same criticism for these pardons

Interesting point but depends on their original J6 crimes they were convicted of though.

The ones that everyone are complaining about is that they were violent offenders and still let out anyways and they went right back out and did the same stuff.

Not quite the same thing.

When you pardon violent criminals, it's not very surprising that they continue to be violent criminals.

Says the stupid frick typically blowing 4dummies in her free the prisoners threads.

Criticism is one thing but were they in jail legitimately? That's were you lefties seem to fail in your "gotcha".

Majority, if not all, J6rs were way over prosecuted. For political reasons. That's your America, OP. Find an example of one that wasn't, that was pardoned, and tell us what he got rearrested for. Then we can discuss that.

Taking a one time thing and compare it to an epidemic by you Democrats, is a butch league meltdown.

Nice one

Trump repeated his promise of pardons at a Tennessee rally in June 2022.[104] In November, four days before the midterm elections, he said: "Let them all go now!"[105] On May 10, 2023, he said he would be "inclined to pardon many of them" while hedging by saying "a couple of them, probably, they got out of control".[106] On September 15, 2023, he said in an interview that aired two days later: "I'm going to look at them, and I certainly might [pardon them] if I think it's appropriate."[107]

In January and March 2024, Trump referred to convicted rioters as "hostages".[108][109] On July 31, 2024, Rachel Scott asked him if he would pardon "the rioters who assaulted police officers.” Trump responded: "Oh, absolutely I would. If they are innocent, I would pardon them." Scott said: "They’ve been convicted." Trump replied: "They were convicted by a very tough system."[110]

On December 8, 2024, as president-elect, Trump said he'd pardon the rioters on his "first day" in office except for any he might deem to be "radical, crazy."[111] Most people who were then still in prison for January 6 crimes had committed violence that day, whereas the nonviolent offenders "either never went to jail in the first place or had such short sentences that they are already out," as HuffPost concluded.[112]

On January 12, 2025, Vice President-elect JD Vance told Fox News: "If you committed violence on that day, obviously you shouldn’t be pardoned, and there’s a little bit of a gray area there, but we’re very much committed to seeing the equal administration of law."[113]

Upon assuming the presidency again on January 20, 2025, Trump followed through on his promise and issued a mass pardon for those convicted of the attack. No one would be required to spend any more time in prison, and all but 14 had their convictions erased.[114] The reason for allowing those 14 convictions to stand was not immediately clear.[115]
