Not too sure about the Qanon shaman's attorney....

[Effete Snob]

There is offensive language in a quote that was tweeted to question his judgment in press statements.

I do not endorse this language, so please do not attribute it to me.

I don't think that is much of a defense.

There are plenty of people dealing with all kinds of challenges in life who somehow managed not to become an insurrectionist mob.

What on earth would anyone's handicap status have to do with the decision to engage in a violent assault on Democracy?

[The Magistrate]

1. It Is Hardly a Legal Defense, Sir

But the statement is accurate in outline, and deserves its emphatic verbiage....

[malaise]

2. Unbelievable isn't it Sir

3. The guy served 25 months in the Navy.

I didn't think they allowed people as impaired as he is saying into the Navy.

[haele]

7. 25 months is not a full enlistment.

It's basically 2 evaluation cycles after bootcamp. Minimum first enlistment active duty time in service - as a Navy reservist - is typically 36 months before one enters the reserves.
He left early.
Administratively or on a Medical.
On edit - a lot of knuckleheads join the Navy, especially in peace time, because they think it will fix their attitude or personal problems easier than joining the Marines or the Army. Most only last between 18, 26 months.

8. Hey, Ted Nugent and Wayne LeP.

we’re to nuts to even get in.

5. The first time I heard this lawyer interviewed he got annoyed by the reporter asking him about

statements/evidence which contradicted the story he was pushing, and he asked the reporter to print out those statements and send them to him so he could shove them up his (own) ass...

He seems like a charming fellow.

6. Would he use a similar argument to defend pedophiles? eom

[luckone]

9. If they are brain damaged and out of control perhaps they need to be in a facility that does

not mean jail. but some consequences are required and in court if it is a mental health assignment then argue for it with the judge

But saying Oh, yeah, they are kooky and did a lot of damage and a have a history of violence
but let them go becuase they are FU'd up? ?No .

Who gets that kind of treatment? oh I know
