Dudes, the fact of the matter is is that OP is no longer an American. He's a Trumpian. It doesn't matter what the law says, what people do, or anything else. If something helps Trump it's OK... end of story. Common sense has LONG AGO left the room.
As has been pointed out MANY MANY times. The FBI did have informants in some of these groups. But you have to realize who and what an informant is. An informant IS NOT an FBI agent or government operative. An informant is a CRIMINAL that sells out his/her fellow criminals for cash and immunity to the government. Can they be very useful? Absolutely. Can they be completely trusted? Absolutely NOT. Almost always, these are folks that belong in jail, but are not because they are more useful for their information than whatever crime they've done.
Second... consider this. Hey guys, let's go rob this bank, beat the crap out of some of the customers, kill the bank guards and make off with the money. We'll make some money it will be fun. So you agree and we rob the bank, kill a few guards, and get away before being arrested later. Does ANYONE think they should get off b/c I'm the one that asked you to do it? Did I entrap you and force you to shoot those guards? It's the same thing here. I don't give a shit WHO told you to do it... It's not OK to go to the capitol, attack and beat the shit out of the cops, damage the building, disrupt congress, and chant about hanging the VP. It's just not.
Only a true Trumpian would look at those tapes of people beating the crap out of the police and storming the capitol and think... Oh, this is not THEIR fault. It's the FBI's for somehow TELLING them to do it. Honestly, it sounds like some sort of Libtard saying... It's not THEIR fault, they had a rough childhood... society is to blame.
I'll be the first one to admit that I don't think most of those folks involved went to the capitol with the intent to do this. Sure, a few fringe groups planned for violence, but most were just there to protest b/c Donald Trump told them to come. They were looking for a "wild time" and protesting what Trump told them was a stolen election. That's fair enough. But if you were a part of the violence against the police or breaking into the building, you need to do some time. If you walked in after the fact and just walked around, a slap on the wrist and a fine is what you deserve, nothing more.
