The Federal prosecutors, unable to bring strong homicide charges against these violent Trump terrorists, have chosen to charge them with various felony charges that can incarcerate them for 20 years. Manslaughter or murder charges can be charged while they are serving their prison time at a later time.
They are going after the 1/6 rioter far more aggressively then all the lefty rioters of the last 5 years.
That makes the politically motivated prosecutions a violation of the right of equal protection before the law.
If they go to jail, they will be political prisoners, serving time, not primarily for any crimes, but for having the wrong political ideas.
