Great, stay happy in your gross ignorance. Just keep typing uniformed things to get under the skin of intelligent people. Now I know not to waste my time trying to explain difficult medical concepts to a part-time philosopher like yourself.

If you can’t read a couple paragraphs, then it stands to reason that you couldn’t understand this issue even if we put it into baby words for you and held your hand to the conclusion. Cool.

She was laughing at the Attorney General in a Republican administration that no reputable attorney will work in. They definitely are exercising prosecutorial discretion. The reverse of how you mean it, but they’re not going to let it slide.

They’d probably lose. The jury foreperson is pretty clear about why they found the defendant guilty, even if the headline on this post is confused about it. She was asked to leave for laughing. She was arrested and convicted for pitching a fit after being asked to leave. We all understand her desire to protest, and…

DOJ...Departmen of Justice.....JUSTICE...only for garbage white men...

I know. What is wrong that you can’t convict a police officer when they’re caught on video shooting and killing a black man who poses no threat to their safety but these 12 assholes were willing to send a woman to jail for this? People need to learn when jury nullification is and isn’t appropriate.

I certainly hope the ACLU takes her case and appeals.

I don’t think it’s that they are afraid of women. It’s that they’re afraid of women who don’t believe they should live to serve them. They want submissive helpmeats who will cook, clean, look pretty and fuck (but only them).

The law basically prohibits demonstrating inside the Capitol. It’s a time, place, and manner regulation aimed at preventing protestors and the like from disrupting Congress or creating unruly situations that can pose security concerns.

Whatever jury they got, they obviously followed the judge’s instructions to the absolute letter. I just know that when I’ve been on a jury, I have voted not guilty when the charge was absolute bullshit, didn’t care about any evidence or arguments I made up my mind from opening arguments.

Since the Congrssional Republicans all just shrugged their shoulders and said “No big deal” and did nothing to sanction Wilson, I completely agree it was a harbinger of how they are acting towards Trump now.

I feel like in 20-30yrs time, when our recent and current events are in the history books, there will be special attention paid to that particular moment of crucial foreshadowing of what was to come.

Question here—In somebody’s experienced legal opinion: what the fuck? What—like....what.

It’s because she’s got a terrorist sounding name right? I can’t I’m a blond haired blue eyes Jane smith going away for this.

Damn liberal snowflakes

It’s not like the DOJ has any other people they should be look at jailing right now.

The letter also stated that “Fairooz’s yelling and sign display thereafter disrupted the hearing and clearly exceeded the permissible bound of the tourist test,” it read, referring to the guideline that requires government to prove that a protester is being “more disruptive” than a tourist visiting Capitol Hill.
