🇺🇸 MESSAGES FROM THE GULAG

🇺🇸Pete Schwartz 🇺🇸 4-29-23

I guess it doesn't matter anymore. They're asking for 25 years for me. I will die in prison for something that, even in their own sentencing memorandum, where they ask for me to be sentenced to that much time; that I didn't do anything. They say that, even though I'm accused of spraying mace, and even though it didn't actually hit anybody; that the officers had to breathe mace filled air. They say that I threw a chair, and even though it didn't hit anybody, that an officer stumbled while watching it hit the ground. And...even though I wasn't on the grounds when Congress went into recess, and even though I never said anything [neither public, nor private] about Congress, or any members of it, and even though I never entered the building; I deserve a life sentence because other people did. And, even though I'm not a Proud Boy, nor an Oath Keeper, or a member of ANY groups or gangs; that being there means that my thoughts are the same as other people's minds that they also couldn't read. 

Even by their own admission; I'm innocent. But, they will give me life, and I will die in here. And nobody cares.... This isn't some neat new hot topic news story. This is the reality of it.
