BREAKING: A man who wielded a Confederate flag during the Jan. 6 Capitol riot was sentenced to 3 years in prison.

on Jan. 6, 2021, was sentenced to 36 months behind bars on Thursday, more than two years after photos of him became some of the most widely recognized images of the attack on the Capitol.after a bench trial before Judge Trevor McFadden of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, who found him of multiple charges, including obstructing Congress' work, entering a restricted building, disorderly conduct and unlawful parading.

Goodman, who testified during the trial last year, said he was inside the Capitol Rotunda during the attack when a group that included Seefried yelled,"Where the members at?" They threatened Goodman, taunting,"What are you going to do, shoot us?" In court documents filed ahead of sentencing, prosecutors urged the court to impose the stiff prison sentence, arguing Seefried"stood resolute with the rioters, who demanded to know the location of the United States senators and representatives who gathered to certify the votes of the Electoral College."

So where are Alabama congressman and senators fighting this total injustice. SILENT. To afraid to stand up for thus man. Shameful

Holding a flag in the white house is illegal? ✍🏽 duly noted

AmBeautifulShow 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

Good!

But gang bangers with repeated gun offenses are free, I feel so much safer now…

The light sentence matches his skin color.

That was one if the few things that people should have gotten in trouble for.

Where is Ray Epps? Ashley Babbitt was murdered.

And rioters received how much time? Oh that's right burning buildings and toppling statues are peaceful protests.....🙄

Good!

play stupid games......

Good.

Hmph…………..anyway……..

What did the guy who broke the window get

And this is a free country? I think not.

It's so funny to read through here and see who has turned into bootlickers that werent before.

Not nearly enough but remove these criminal terrorists right to vote is a proper step as well.

On Jan 6th no business burn and looted

THAT FLAG has NO PLACE inside the house of WeThePeople!

'He cannot help but be afraid to ever trust a politician again,' his lawyers wrote. There’s always a lack of accountability, and blaming someone else. It’s his own judgment he should be afraid to trust again.

Kevin will have it real deep once he checks on to prison.

Good

Guilty of being part of the establishments false flag to justify a war against its political enemies and to block any further examination of the signatures on mail-in ballots. You can sucker punch a man into a coma and be released the same night in New York City. Equal justice?

Great 👍

So wrong I believe that building belongs to the people

Ohh these consequences that are coming in for these traitors are so satisfying. Maybe he can find a new “flag pole” to hold on prison! 😂😂😂

👍🏼

was he sentenced by this corrupt judge. Thomas McAvoy Binghamton NY

Which will be overturned on appeal by the Supreme Court. Oh, and thank you for using the proper terms: Riot is what that was.

Attempting the overthrow the government is only 3 years? That doesn't sound right at all.

DeanObeidallah Good

DeanObeidallah Lock him up.

Imagine if he waved a cheeseburger, he would have gotten 10 years. Don't steal elections.

Good 👍🏻

Should've gotten more

What a dotard

Only flag cost 3 Years behind bars 😅😅

DruniHeidi slap on the wrist. should be 300 years

Political prisoner.

But he’s just a child.

It should have been 15years in prison !

Cities destroyed and they carry a racist banner.

I'm sure trump will provide for him after he's released 🙄

Pay damages too

Ray Epps is the Building 7 of J6. This big John Wayne looking character should be the media's poster boy for their false flag narrative with all the videos clearly showing him encouraging people to 'go INTO the Capitol' Yet it's 🦗 from the media. Because it's all a lie.

Fucked around and found out

That's all? Shouldn't carrying that flag elevate the charge to a hate crime? The man tried to dismantle our democracy, those who marred the Capitol deserve capital punishment.

Sometimes, there are consequences to a lack of civics education and critical thinking skills. 'Mr. Seefried's wife has left him, he is headed to prison and he will be destitute when he is released. Worst of all, his beloved son is in prison...'

What a farce, drug dealers that kill our kids get less time...

FAFO !!! 👏👏👏👏

Apparently you can go to jail in America for free speech. China and North Korea would be proud.

It’s Donny trump

J6 was a false flag event concocted and carried out by the Deep State.

Waste of time.

これはこれで政治的に利用されるであろう。

None of these would be considered a crime if it were BLM or Antifa.

is 'Confederate Battle Flag' too trite now?

Oh the Democrat flag from the civil war

Talk about a failure in parenting. Where was his father?

Nice.
