THE 6TH AMENDMENT

With all the protections provided by the Bill of Rights, one has to wonder why there are still January 6 prisoners incarcerated without a trial date and in some cases without formal charges.

The purpose of the Bill of Rights is to protect individual liberties and limit the power of the government. It outlines specific rights and freedoms that are guaranteed to every citizen such as freedom of speech, religion, and the press, the right to bear arms, protections against unreasonable searches and seizures, the right to a fair trial, and protections against cruel and unusual punishment. These rights are considered fundamental to a democratic society and serve to ensure that the government respects the rights and freedoms of its citizens.

With all the protections provided by the Bill of Rights, one has to wonder why there are still January 6 prisoners incarcerated without a trial date and in some cases without formal charges.

We believe the government is willfully ignoring the law and the Constitution to keep these political prisoners in jail. We further believe that these prisoners are not only owed a trial, but a speedy trial they’ve not had. So aside from violations of the First, Fourth, and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution, the fact that these people are still in jail without due process 44 months after the supposed act is a full stop violation of the Sixth Amendment, which guarantees speedy trial.

The right to a speedy trial applies to both federal and state criminal cases in the United States. This right is guaranteed by the Sixth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which ensures that individuals accused of crimes have the right to a trial without undue delay. The specific timeframe considered "speedy" may vary depending on the circumstances of the case and the jurisdiction, but generally, it means that the trial should proceed promptly and without unnecessary delays. If a trial is unreasonably delayed, it may violate the defendant's Constitutional rights, and they may be entitled to have the charges dismissed.

The US has become a banana republic, with all the warts and foul smells that come with that appellation. The only person killed on January 6 was Ashli Babbit, who was killed by an incompetent Capitol Police Lieutenant who had managed to lose his weapon in a men’s room previous to Jan 6.

No police or first responders were killed, most injuries were inflicted on the demonstrators – yes, demonstrators, look to the First Amendment – by Capitol Police firing rubber bullets and flash/bang grenades into the crowd to incite a riot. There is video of the barrage of supposed non-lethal ordinance being fired at the crowd.

No one in the crowd shot back.

Yet no Capitol Police personnel were charged, or even identified (except the incompetent Lieutenant), none of them went to jail, none of them lost their jobs.

Meanwhile, through the wonder of modern BS government brought to you by the uniparty and your local socialist/communist parties, there are plenty of people being treated like animals, fed trash, and without proper medical care who are waiting for their day in court, if they live that long.

It is our deeply felt hope that this tragedy will end soon, and that those in government who actively participated in or ignored the unlawful acts of the government be indicted, tried, and imprisoned for violations of the Constitutional rights of the January 6 protesters.

Remember freedoms delayed are freedoms denied. We’re all a little more at risk when we allow the government to ride rough-shod over us.

We can’t ask often enough that you contribute to a charity or organization that is taking care of the hurricane victims. The government certainly is less than aggressive in their disaster response and people still need help. We recommend Samaritan's Purse or Mercury One as already on the ground and doing excellent work. Thank you.
