    Oh yeah, I’m definitely not advocating for him to just get let loose on the streets. Just saying he doesn’t need to spend his whole life behind bars

      I think this is being blind to the scale of the issue.

      The entire MAGA cult is as radicalized as this guy, some more, some less. But most probably as radicalized. There are maybe 1-3 million die-hards?

      They successfully took the capitol in an attempted coup.

      I’m sorry, but this sentiment of yours is misguided. He isn’t a one off. He’s part of a movement. We need to be considering this issue in a broader context.
