Bleh who cares he pretty much invited it, at the same time like all the others in the mueller investigation he is going to jail for something other than Russian collusion.
HmmmâŚnothing like Michael Anthony Tedesco or Roy Wayne McKeever. Those drug dealers are different from Obamaâs.
Definitely not to the level of Michael Chase Behenna, Mathew Golsteyn, or Clint A. Lorance. They definitely didnât do anything violent. Trump is a man of the people, allowing non-violent and violent offenders to go free!
When someone doesnât follow orders by a cop they can get shot and possibly killed. Itâs solely on him for not following the authorityâs order. Stone need to nut up, shut up, and deal with the consequences of defying authority.
Itâs because I am curious why a bunch of liberals who go around spewing the party line that non-violent offenders shouldnât be in prison are suddenly so gung ho on this particular non-violent criminal spending as long as possible behind bars.
Since whataboutism is being engaged in, we need to clarify Obamaâs actions.
President Obama did issue a number of full pardons, but they were almost all for people who had been convicted years ago, served their full sentences and subsequently led above board lives and deserved the pardons.
President Obama primarily granted commutations of prison terms which did NOT amount to completely obliterating most sentences. Most of these commutations went to black defendants who were subject to unjust sentencing âcrackâ enhancements. The commutations served to bring their sentences in line with white defendants who received shorter sentences for distributing powder cocaine. All these people still served substantial time in prison prior to release and many are still in prison, just facing fewer years.
Only in a very small number of cases did Obama grant a pardon or commutation that completely relieved a defendant of prison time.
So the whataboutism doesnât really work at all here.
Trump released Alice Marie Johnson for nearly identical reasons. Iâm not sure how that is overlooked. Trump commuted Ronen Nahmaniâs 20 year prison sentence for trafficking drugs from China to 5 years.
