I wonder how many times he's referred to other officers as his "brothers and sisters".

Assault a police officer and off to jail you go!!



Webster, 56, of Goshen, N.Y., assaulted D.C. police officer Noah Rathbun with an aluminum Marine Corps flagpole, jurors found. The panel of eight women and four men also found Webster guilty of interfering with police in a riot and trespassing, disorderly and violent conduct while carrying a deadly or dangerous weapon on Capitol grounds.
Webster, who previously served on the protective security detail of former New York mayor Mike Bloomberg, was the first of about 150 defendants charged with assaulting an officer to take his case to a jury and the first to argue self-defense.

Of course, they'll prosecute him to the full extent of the law. Like they have all they others.

Yep, I hope he enjoys prison.

Anyone find that anywhere?

A Marine Corps veteran and a former police officer assaulting a police officer with an American flag while trying to overturn an election by force.

100% thinks of himself as a patriot.

You can't deal with people like this.

Oh, he'll go to jail. But for how long, figuring in "time served", is the question. Most have been sentenced to the bottom end of the sentencing guidelines for unprecedented crime that has arguably been dumbed down in numerous cases, IMO.
