Finally they are locking up these ANTIFA rioters who destroyed Raleigh's downtown to lengthy prison sentences. I can only hope the number increases in the upcoming weeks. Sadly we needed the federal prosecutor to step up because the local prosecutors decided to let all of these ANTIFA rioters off without any charges. The business community was furious and demanded the Feds take action -- that millions of dollars in damage caused by people caught on video needed to be properly prosecuted with lengthy prison sentences applied. Raleigh man gets 7 years in prison for starting fires during downtown riots https://www.wral.com/raleigh-man-ge...tarting-fires-during-downtown-riots/20038889/ A Raleigh man was sentenced Thursday to 85 months in federal prison for damage he did to a store in downtown Raleigh during riots that followed the death of George Floyd in police custody. Richard Rubalcava, 27, pleaded guilty in March to setting a fire at a Dollar General Express store on East Davie Street. He also admitted to vandalizing the Red Hat building with other rioters. Authorities said security camera video shows Rubalcava going into the Dollar General Express store at 149 E. Davie St. several times in the early hours of May 30 and tossing various merchandise into bags each time before leaving. His last time in the store, he can be seen on video setting several items at the end of an aisle on fire before leaving, authorities said. A sprinkler system put out the fire, but there was extensive damage to the structure and merchandise. Rubalacava was also ordered to pay restitution to Dollar General in the amount of $354,379.22. The Dollar General Express was one of a number of downtown businesses that were looted in two nights of rioting that followed protests in the wake of Floyd's death in Minnesota.
Yeah... he burned stuff as part of the ANTIFA crowd the same night ANTIFA announced on their local social media accounts they were coming into Raleigh to riot. Good luck with your narrative.
It's up to you to paint the narrative, and right now, you've provided a source of an arsonist doing arsonist things.
Yeah... whatever -- Richard Rubalcava is quite proud of his ANTIFA association. Hope he enjoys his prison term. https://antifawatch.net/ViewReport/ea972c1d
GWB, all the gross oversimplification and overstating of severity, do you think you will ever grow out if this? When large parts of societies are grumpy and no longer respect the institutions, you get protests and the odd bit going too far. If you don't it's a very scary dictatorship. A period of argy-bargy every decade or two is healthy as it means you are not actually a dictatorship, yet. So with you everything is Antifa, everything is CRT and that utter lack of nuance makes you seem very dumb. You can't have it al-la-cart with a real society, the bits GWB is not scared of so supports and the bits he is (most if it) never happening. Then there is the part of you brain that weighs stuff up proportionally, that part of your mind is missing almost entirely. My friends in Raleigh, living downtown did not give a shit about what happened as they knew it was a storm in a teacup being cool headed and successful people.
