Democracy saved

U.S. Federal District Court Judge Reggie B. Wilson compared the actions of Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol rioter Adam Johnson, 37, of Florida, to something you would see "in a banana republic," and the current war in Ukraine when he sentenced him Friday to 75 days in jail and a fine of $5,000.

"A message just has to be sent," The Washington Post reported Walton telling Johnson during the proceeding. "If you're going to associate yourself with this type of behavior, and you're going to try to engage in conduct that undermines the fundamental fabric of this society, [then] your freedom is going to be taken away."

Walton recommended Johnson read two books: "How Civil Wars Start," and "The Next Civil War," lamenting, "What we're experiencing now is exactly some of the things that were experienced prior to those events taking place. That's what we see in countries, like what we're experiencing now in Ukraine," the Post reported Walton said to Johnson. "And you contributed to that."

Judge has some serious hyperbole issues.

The 1/6 coup makes the Russian invasion of Ukraine look JV.

You’d think a guy convicted of treason and sedition would get more that 75 days minus time served and time off for good behavior.

Treason, sedition and don't forget the murder of office Brian Sicknick. Quick!!!! Tell me the name of the Capitol Hill police officer that was killed by the BLM supporter less than 4 months after 1/6?
