Inauguration Demonstrations


Nearly six months after Donald Trump was sworn into office, more than 200 protesters who gathered in Washington, D.C. to protest his inauguration are facing felony charges that carry sentences of 70 to 80 years.

According to Al Jazeera, the 212 protesters were arrested by the Metropolitan Police Department and initially charged with felony rioting, a crime that carries a 10-year prison sentence and a $25,000 fine. On April 27, the Superior Court of the District of Columbia added additional charges that include urging to riot, conspiracy to riot and destruction of property.

1. Are we Russia yet?

Is Vlad actually running the show via Trump?

I'm believing it more every day as I see more of our Constitutional rights disappearing, with little notice nor mention.
One day the America we knew, has been changed.

This is some frightening stripping of rights.

THIS is how Russia silences opposition.


"urging to riot, conspiracy to riot". Wouldn't this cover any one or more persons so much as discussing a protest of any kind, anywhere, that would dare exercise the right to free speech?
"Urging or Conspiracy to Riot" is a rather broad definition.

This is pretty serious, folks.
