and I can't help but believe these "sentences" will be reviewed once we take back Congress... and hopefully the Presidency. BUT more worrisome to me, are the ones who broke off from the group to do the vandalism and came armed with an AR15. Who were they? The government wants us to believe they were left-wing terrorists, when we know there is no such thing. Were these Magas who had "infiltrated" the group to do exactly what they did, knowing how trump would react? Were any of THEM arrested, or was it just the noise making protestors?
