Hi there, new eagle here. Could you tell me what a show-cause notice does, and for what it's used? I keep hear you mentioning it in videos. Love the vids btw!
Hell remember before the 2000s when anybody had a brain new damn well not the photograph your acts at all or better yet didn't meddle in these type of affairs.
@Roger Loquitur Sure you can. Ford pardoned Nixon before he ever got charged. Carter pardoned all the Vietnam War draft dodgers, so those thousands of men wouldn't ever be charged in the first place. It would have been not just possible, but completely legal, for Trump to pardon all the rioters. Thank goodness his advisors talked him out of it.
Everyone says revolution. It's become almost meaningless like saying freedom, rights, our values, and America's the greatest country in the world. But when you have molotov or guns and restraints, that's what makes it an actual threat. Or as Pelosi would say "a beautiful sight."

"Your Honor, my client may have done all he is charged with, but in his defense, he gave us one of the funniest pictures of the year. That has to count for something...?"
To be fair to the lawyer though, what actually can you do in that situation? There's a picture of the dude with his face fully exposed looking straight at the camera while walking off with the lectern in the same photo. It's not even remotely debatable whether or not he did it.
To be fair, there were a bunch of people protesting outside who didn't try to force their way into the capital. In that regard, they are correct. But it doesn't change the fact there are people who did in fact use violence, force their way in, and commit various crimes.
I bet they didn't see it the same with the blm protests. The peaceful ones that unlike the capitol riots, were in response towards injustice. Ah the double standards and ignoring of context conservatives play with.
In the end, this was nothing compared to the entire "summer of love". The one person who died was shot by an official. The damage does not add up to the damage caused by the left in all other instances and they have all evaded justice.
@@keiharris332 Obviously. You're comparing one riot to multiple riots. As for arrests and justice, it was really easy for this one because people were "smart" enough to livestream or post their crimes.

It depends. Cannibalism itself isn't always illegal. I can think of at least one performance artist in the UK who used that to obtain human flesh, which was donated to him, and then eat it in public. Officials tried to put him in prison, but couldn't because he didn't actually do anything illegal for the time. Although its hard to remember the specifics...

Asimov was really on the nose with these quotes...“There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been.

It’s fascinating to watch this almost 18 months after the events. Most people have been charged, and pled guilty to, some variations of illegally entering and staying in the Capitol, vandalism, etc. People on video actually attacking police have faced more serious charges for those violent crimes. And we’re increasingly seeing leaders of groups like the Proud Boys and Oathkeepers charged with…seditious conspiracy! It’s been frustrating to watch the very slow progress of DOJ working their way through the indictments, but starting with the lower level offenders and working their way to the top is them going by the book. They just had to deal with hundreds of different cases and many thousands of hours of video footage and social media traffic to sort through.
“Your Honor. My client is obviously too stupid to be taken seriously. While we accept crimes have been committed, we will kindly ask for a more lenient sentence.”
@@alexanderrobins7497 That's what basically happened in the Mueller Report with regards to Trump Jr. Anything he could charge him with (within the scope of his investigation) required that he knowingly committed a crime and it was determined it would be too difficult to prove that due to how stupid Trump Jr is.
"Whether they intended to do it or not." What's the test? A: "I didn't intend to invade the capitol." Q: "Did you trip on the sidewalk and fall up the stairs and through the window?"
Playing devil's advocate, I suppose there were likely some who simply went at the president's behest for what they imagined was a peaceful protest, which should be within their rights, to shout about a stolen election or some other fictitious thing, but the crowd then decided to storm the capitol. I can only see this applying to those that didn't go inside though.

Hi Alexander, Agreed! And about "sheep", I would say that where there are sheep there is usually a shepherd. While we always rightfully retain the ability for critical thinking, we generally look to people and sources that we believe are knowledgeable and trustworthy for the facts we need to help shape our thinking. In that context, if people who identify as "conservative" insist, I am O.K. w/ calling these people and sources "shepherds", and myself a "sheep". But I would say to conservatives that they too have their shepherds. I would say that however/whatever we identify as, it is critical for us as individuals and as a nation that we choose our shepherds carefully.
That’s why they go muddy up the rhetoric by calling others NPCs instead of sheep but I don’t see a difference. Cult groups like to cheat with semantics by making up new terms
@@071949 Alternatively, people should stop pretending that we don't have an impact on each other, thereby influencing our behaviour, and acknowledge that there isn't such a thing as objective independent rational thought, as you say, and get rid of the entire "sheep" analogy because it doesn't make any sense and it never has. "Shepherds" are as much shaped by this process as the "sheep", the only thing that seperates a shepherd from the sheep is a loud mouth and/or a big stick.

Too bad he's a typical California liberal, instead of taking a neutral stance like I would expect a real lawyer to do. If you don't know what a typical California liberal is, it goes something like this, "Why is California so bad??? All I ever did was vote left and it isn't working! I can't afford anything anymore, I have to pay the highest tax rate out of any state on everything, there are homeless everywhere, and people pooping on the sidewalks! I'll just move out of California, and to another state where I will keep voting left because things will be different this time!" And for anyone who wants to shine some hate my way, look at California. Look at it hard. California is what you get from socialist democracy. Remember kids, California has not been a red state since like 1992. Democrats have had the run of everything in California for almost 30 years. So if you like what you see in California, keep voting left everywhere and we can have our entire nation be just like California.

What if this video was labelled, "Alleged crimes the capitol rioters committed" and then spoke about how theese rioters might not be charged, using antifa and BLM rioters for examples, along with other things to promote the view that these rioters may not be rioters, and might not face criminal charges.

If a person was put up on a hook hanging by his clothes (like Danny Vermin in Johnny Dangerously), he was hung. If a noose was put around his throat and he was suspended until dead, he was hanged.
When murder is committed during a crime, often everyone involved in the crime gets charged with murder. Why isn't everyone involved getting charged with murder?
Because you need to willfully aid the perpetrator in order to get charged as a co-conspirator. It would be quite hard to demonstrate that everyone here willfully wanted to aid the murderer (I suppose you refer to the policeman killed).
I think that's called the 'felony murder rule', which is pretty much what you said, and it applies to felony crimes. So everyone that is charged with the same felony is on the hook for the murders. However LegalEagle said so far the charges have been pretty light, like 'tresspassing', so it's a wait-and-see if the prosecutors add felony charges
Not everyone involved in the crime, just everyone who committed certain dangerous felonies in connection with the death. There are other caveats too, like that the death must not be too remote from the felony, and that the felony must not be a form of homicide (since otherwise manslaughter would always automatically be murder). It's frankly a ridiculous law when you think about it. If I beat someone with a tire iron to "teach them a lesson," and they end up dying, I have not committed murder, because I was not trying to kill them. I have only committed manslaughter. But if I threaten someone with a tire iron and take their wallet, and they attack me and die in the fight, I have committed felony murder. It's only if I _didn't_ intend to hurt them that my charge might get upgraded. As a final note, there is a slim chance that these people would still be guilty of _constructive manslaughter,_ which is basically the misdemeanor equivalent of the felony murder rule. It might cover, for instance, if I leapt suddenly into the road in front of a car (misdemeanor jaywalking), and as a result, the car swerved and crashed and the driver died. (I would also be liable for civil damages, of course.) For this to apply, the misdemeanor law must have been written with the intention of protecting human life. It would not apply to destruction of property or trespassing.

Anyone else find it humorous that Q’s slogan “Where we go one, we go all” sounds like a subtle/roundabout way of calling themselves sheep?
And little did they realize it was going to jail....
Hi Alexander, Agreed! And about "sheep", I would say that where there are sheep there is usually a shepherd. While we always rightfully retain the ability for critical thinking, we generally look to people and sources that we believe are knowledgeable and trustworthy for the facts we need to help shape our thinking. In that context, if people who identify as "conservative" insist, I am O.K. w/ calling these people and sources "shepherds", and myself a "sheep". But I would say to conservatives that they too have their shepherds. I would say that however/whatever we identify as, it is critical for us as individuals and as a nation that we choose our shepherds carefully.
4 legs good, 2 legs bad.
That’s why they go muddy up the rhetoric by calling others NPCs instead of sheep but I don’t see a difference. Cult groups like to cheat with semantics by making up new terms
@@071949 Alternatively, people should stop pretending that we don't have an impact on each other, thereby influencing our behaviour, and acknowledge that there isn't such a thing as objective independent rational thought, as you say, and get rid of the entire "sheep" analogy because it doesn't make any sense and it never has. "Shepherds" are as much shaped by this process as the "sheep", the only thing that seperates a shepherd from the sheep is a loud mouth and/or a big stick.

@@Draelyn nice ad hominem. Do you have any arguments against his many factual analyses on the channel? Can you point out something he got wrong? If not, it doesn't matter where he comes from
@@kylemarquis738 I never said he didn't speak in facts, I said that he is not speaking from a neutral point of view. He is still coming from a liberal point of view, which does actually matter quite a bit, especially if you know your channel is viewed by a more liberal crowd than a conservative one.
What if this video was labelled, "Alleged crimes the capitol rioters committed" and then spoke about how theese rioters might not be charged, using antifa and BLM rioters for examples, along with other things to promote the view that these rioters may not be rioters, and might not face criminal charges.
Both the video he made and the one I suggested could both be backed with facts... but one is from a liberal point of view and the other a conservative one. Do you still really think that the narrative doesn't matter?
@@Draelyn I don't know... I'm not American (I live in Australia) but if I were to live in the States, California will be in the top 3 states I'll consider. And no, there are no red states in my top 3 list. But hey, I'm probably a commie.
I’d be curious what your thoughts are now, 6ish months later. Is the scope of the charges filed and the pace of new charges what you would expect this far post-incident?

Aren't you clever.
When murder is committed during a crime, often everyone involved in the crime gets charged with murder. Why isn't everyone involved getting charged with murder?
Because you need to willfully aid the perpetrator in order to get charged as a co-conspirator. It would be quite hard to demonstrate that everyone here willfully wanted to aid the murderer (I suppose you refer to the policeman killed).
I think that's called the 'felony murder rule', which is pretty much what you said, and it applies to felony crimes. So everyone that is charged with the same felony is on the hook for the murders. However LegalEagle said so far the charges have been pretty light, like 'tresspassing', so it's a wait-and-see if the prosecutors add felony charges
Not everyone involved in the crime, just everyone who committed certain dangerous felonies in connection with the death. There are other caveats too, like that the death must not be too remote from the felony, and that the felony must not be a form of homicide (since otherwise manslaughter would always automatically be murder).
It's frankly a ridiculous law when you think about it. If I beat someone with a tire iron to "teach them a lesson," and they end up dying, I have not committed murder, because I was not trying to kill them. I have only committed manslaughter. But if I threaten someone with a tire iron and take their wallet, and they attack me and die in the fight, I have committed felony murder. It's only if I _didn't_ intend to hurt them that my charge might get upgraded.
As a final note, there is a slim chance that these people would still be guilty of _constructive manslaughter,_ which is basically the misdemeanor equivalent of the felony murder rule. It might cover, for instance, if I leapt suddenly into the road in front of a car (misdemeanor jaywalking), and as a result, the car swerved and crashed and the driver died. (I would also be liable for civil damages, of course.) For this to apply, the misdemeanor law must have been written with the intention of protecting human life. It would not apply to destruction of property or trespassing.
@@EebstertheGreat doesnt that count every rioter though? if they didnt attack the capital committing felonies in the process then the murderers wouldnt have been able to kill the cop
@@MegaLuros Like the guy who picks the murderer up? Or the folks who help the murderer break in?

probably do because said your country's ditto needs to know your country's law and US law well we have complicated laws that each state needs its own test and laws about who can be a lawyer for what due to how different they are. Even traffic law is different state to state. It is in ways that the majority of US citizen's don't care to notice but it is.
That's also exactly me.
Probably know more than the majority of our citizens here as well
Don't worry. I was addicted to watching John Bercow through brexit
@@yumri4 Utterly wrong. And every European state and province and locale has their own laws. It's not unique to the US. Much of US law is borrowed from English law. It's neither less or more complicated than any other country's laws. Stop using the lame excuse that Americans are inherently more ignorant or have a worse off legal system than other countries.

You mean like how that BLM activist shot and murdered that Trump supporter from behind? 1 million Trump voters are outside in DC, most own guns, not a single shot was fired by them. If the woman that was shot was a BLM activist, we’d have riots for 6 months.
Legal Eagle is like House in that one episode where it's actually Lupus.
Or the one time it really was two diseases.
OMFG!!! Yes! 👏🏼😂
House always with the LUPUS. But usually an INFECTION.
Funny enough many years ago a friend in medical school said that basically if it's really hard to diagnose and strange, that it's almost always lupus.
I was thinking about that, too!
It pleases me imagining how afraid these traitors are. The ones who haven’t been caught are likely in great fear just waiting for the FBI to give them a knock.
Yeah, I really liked how the FBI framed their message saying: you better turn yourself in instead of waiting for us to knock on your door. Because we will.
They're being put on no-fly lists and bring thrown out of airports now too
I don't think they are.
Being capable of fear requires a certain minimum amount of intelligence.
it's probably pointless at this point to be indignant that riots in Portland, Seattle, Chicago, Philly, NY and DC by members of the left will go unpunished. Wrong is wrong but gosh, at least persecute everyone, not just a select few, and emphasis on select few.
@@stanleypressley2197 here's the point you Trumptards keep missing, everyone who committed a crime this summer DID get prosecuted and on top of that millions of peaceful protesters were tear gassed and shot at with live rounds, meanwhile the Capitol Police treated the violent terrorists in DC with kid gloves and let them run rampant, and as far as why people treat the events in DC so seriously is because it wasn't just looting a Target store, it was literally TREASON and an attempt to OVERTHROW OUR DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED GOVERNMENT and if you can't understand the difference then you are an absolutely braindead moron

Yeah, I chuckled at that, too. One of my best friends and I were joking about this the night after the DC riots because we had plans to play a board game (Isle of Cats) that night and were chuckling about our "conspiracy". Luckily for us, playing a board game that is basically the love child of cats and tetris is not actually a crime, and thus also not a conspiracy. We were, however, of the opinion that the Trump rioters would be in a lot less trouble if they'd simply stayed home and played a kitty-filled board game. XD

Also those didn't attempt at overturning a national election, and the only reason the capitol invasion wasn't called "looting" despite how much shit the people there stole is because they didn't do it for profit but for fun.
If you want to compare BLM riots, then riot police should've beaten the shit out of the Capitol protestors. Lol
Plenty of mace, tear gas, funneling protestors down certain streets, a much grander and heavier response, which just riles up protestors to fight back...
