This is extremely, extremely alarming.

Look, if you show up for a protest and you slash car tires and break a security camera, you doing that understanding that there may be personal consequences — and for vandalizing gov property, as the price of civil disobedience, maybe you accept your 9-month sentence + probation.

You do not accept a 50- or 70- or 100-year sentence. Many murderers get less time than that. If they murdered Alex Pretti or Renee Good, they apparently get no time at all.

This isn’t justice. It’s suppression. It’s authoritarianism.
