US prosecutors Portland dropping almost all charges on rioters

[Darth Omar]

Whether or not politics is behind dropping the Portland charges, when conduct is criminal on its face, as clearly it is in the assault on the Capitol building, any political bias in officials behind the arrest and prosecution is irrelevant.

Should we hold our breath waiting for charges to be dropped on the Capitol rioters lol?

Politics is the whole point. Righties have only been bitching for four years about how ‘political considerations’ have corrupted equal enforcement of the law. And investigations.

If you’re looking for ‘bigger fish to fry’ in either instance you’re probably going to be disappointed.

Not a lawyer, just a retired citizen hoping all criminals face justice. Both the assholes who assualted the Federal building in Portland and the assholes who assaulted the Capitol on 1/6.

Seems to be happening.

In one instance.

Burning people's homes, cars, people, and livelihoods is just fine but simply storming a building that was burned down by same people that installed a corrupt president, is just out of the question hmm?

Nope cant stand these faggots. Nope. Nuhuh

I'm curious if the DOJ will kick over more money to the Portland Federal office. Funding is what this seems to be about.

Congress, both D's and R's, are pissed about being attacked, but they usually don't give a shit if others are attacked.

Bitch away, friend. Leftists have bitched for decades for the same reason and probably with more justification since law enforcement traditionally has been more conservative than liberal. But, as I said, it's the conduct. Deciding if the conduct matches up with the criminal charge(s) are what juries and judges are for. Any motion to dismiss a charge solely on the basis of the political motivations of the party who made the arrest wouldn't get so much as a hearing.

Please cite the court cases and states where Trump proves election fraud.

I'm not talking about court cases.

Agreed, you can't make evidence go away by denying it. This fact is going to come back on Trump and his inner circle.

Why? The evidence of election fraud by Democrats is coming back on the Democrats.

[Into the Night]

I would think that should be fairly obvious.

Equal treatment under the law.

The 14th amendment is not recognized by the Democrats. Neither is the Constitution of the United States nor any State constitution.

The riot in front of the Capitol building was by Antifa and BLM.

[AProudLefty]

In a switch of administrations, the US Attorney's office in Portland is dropping most of their cases against rioters there including at least sixteen (16) cases of felony assault on a federal officer--many of these on video as well.

It would seem only those who were caught with the most absolute of proof are even being pushed for plea deals, the rest are simply being let go.

My suspicion is that this wholesale dropping of charges many of which are far worse, with equal or better evidence to that of the Capitol riot will be used in defense of Capitol rioters who will now argue that their prosecution is political, not criminal, in nature.

Isn't that a good thing? And please do not listen to our resident JPP loser. He loves to stink threads like yours up.

Ah, that explains all those known Trump supporters, the MAGA hats, and the virtually all white mob - and how dumb of Trump not to know when he riled them up before their march. Anyway, you must be in favor of jailing the lot of them.
