Terrorist gets just 90 days in prison after posting pictures of a bomb online

That is like saying if someone is going to shoot you, you shouldn't ask a passerby for help just get shot and let the police find him.

Not at all, these protesters aren't threatening to shoot anyone - they just want to disrupt things.

what else are they going to use? 1 for the other's protection and 2 for the retribution. does a person deserve compassion if they're throwing things at another person? don't make me laugh. if you're throwing tomatoes at a person who doesn't deserve violence, then you definitely deserve violence towards yourself, for retribution and defence (when necessary)

The protesters should be arrested, but in a situation where people want to fight one another, more violence occurs - it shows to the protestors that they can get under Trump's supporters' skin, and will encourage them to do it again. Retaliating is exactly what these protestors want, and giving them the reaction they want is going to cause further protests.

Not focusing on how this person supports Donald Trump (what do you expect), but if this was a person planning to plant explosives for IS, or supporting them, they'd be given much longer sentences. For example, my friend showed me this news report a few days ago of a terrorist group that planned to bomb malls around the United Arab Emirates who were all given life sentences, despite not having executed the acts and having weaponry (just like this man).

All this man got was 90 days in prison and anger management classes. I'm not saying terrorists like the linked one should get lesser sentences, I'm saying there should be consistency worldwide in a time where terrorism is so prevalent.

I think you've confused yourself

He made threats this is different to actually having a Plan to bomb a mosque or planning to kill Muslims (there is a similar case in the UK I believe but lets not forget our legal systems are not comparable)

I've never been a fan of the plea bargain system but in America their laws are different so it's not unusual for the state to accept a guilty plea for a lesser crime rather than face the risk of going to court over a higher charge and losing

But lone wolf idiots will always exist and can't see how it's wrong to deal with them in this way.

You have been added to the Islamophobic list just so you know. It is on part for most of your previous posts (and threads) insulting Muslims and Islam. Also defending trump is Islamophobic

And he didn't say beat the crap out of every protester just the ones who were going to attack him with tomatoes.

This is proof that no matter how solid my source is, you will always try to wriggle out of the mess in which you entrap yourself.

Trump incited violence in this statement, PERIOD.

so they should be arrested while in the mean time being effectively allowed to do as they please...you seem to making very generous allowances to violent criminals

Violent criminals? They're just protesting, it's not like they're threatening to stab / kill Trump supporters.

If a politician is capable of warranting such disruptive protests, then there is obviously something flawed, in the eyes of the protestors, about this politician.

It's democracy, get used to it. Other countries today would have them executed and their families arrested.

So he should let people assault him
Why are you supporting people who plan on committing crime?
Should the person in the article be allowed to commit the crime then just let the police sort it out?
