A few of assistant US Attorney Jason McCullough's greatest hits today when Judge Kelly noted that terror crimes usually involve killing people or blowing up buildings.
McCullough: "These are very serious crimes. This is among the most serious crimes this court can consider."
"A warning shot to government."
"There is a reason why we will hold our breath when the next election approaches."
The country was "pushed to the edge of a Constitutional crisis."
The Proud Boys aim was to "intimidate and terrify."
Couples will think twice before attending a presidential inauguration (McCullough must've missed 2017 inauguration riots) and a parent will be afraid to take a child to a polling place.
"I appreciate the loss of life BUT..."
A mass casualty event is "different in kind" but the Proud Boys "led men to cross the Rubicon and go against their government."
"If a group is going to amass a force and bring them to the Capitol they need to understand the consequences."
