Convicted felon at age 20. Pretty sad.
Earlier he said he was going to represent himself as a "sovereign citizen". Maybe his dad talked him out of that.
Here is his statement of facts.

Every time a sovereign citizen defense is attempted, an angel gets her wings.
Then, after the SOVCIT is convicted, all of the winged angels are given a hundred cases of 5,000 year old Scottish Whiskey and an extra 5,000,000 days worth of personal time.

Also, while he is technically the youngest to be charged and convicted, there were several minors who participated as well, but will never be charged.
I'm aware of at least one minor who actively participated in the violence, and wasn't merely following their terrible excuse for a parent like a lost puppy (they used a strobe light in the tunnel assault to blind/disorient officers).

They need to be charged too. Because we know sure as shit, that pigs have been charging POC youths as adults for any and everything for centuries. Even those without records get fucked if they’re POC, but these little shut yt fucks get off? Fuck that shit.

It should be pretty simple. If they’re not US Citizens, they have to show evidence that they’re legally allowed in this country - like a visa stamp. No visa? Oh hmmmm. So you’re in the US illegally.
So can’t deport them anywhere because there is no anywhere that would claim them.
Just set up a wing in Gitmo to house these chucklefucks and after a decade or two they can try and remember, again, if they are US citizens after all?
Guaranteed nobody tries this “sovereign citizen” shit again.

Sending them to Guantanamo is a fantasy. But a fantasy I can enjoy playing in my mind. For ow I just am happy he has been taken out of our society.

I think his parents ruined his life for him

Do I remember correctly, that he was one of the people that was photographed inside the Senate Chamber. The DOJ has taken a hard line with those people.

I’m not that familiar with the U.S. Justice system. How long does a conviction like that stay on your record?

u/somedude456 Feb 25 '23
Basically no guns for life.

This is incorrect. In many states a felony drops off your record automatically after x years. And felons can still buy black powder weapons. Im not defending the guy terrorists deserve every penalty they get.
The federal law banning felons in possession alone doesn’t restrict guns in all states forever. In most states a state law takes over on the ban to restrict arms to felons. After the time thing passes that drops a felony.

Sure have. Not sure exactly what you mean by this open ended question but if you want some quotes here is the atf themselves saying yes felons can own black powder weapons

Her recent behaviour tells me Madge Traitor Greene will think she has the power to issue him a full pardon, which will include double vote rights and a free assault rifle.

He will get less than he deserves from his two felony convictions, but I hope it is far more painful the he could ever had imagined.
He did this for Trump, that is the true crime. Trump should have been in chains that evening.
Both should be serving be hind bars.

Yes, but as a felon, he's now banned for life from making stupid Instagram gun-fetish posts

Homeschooling is a helluva drug (I have no proof he was homeschooled)

u/PurkleDerk Feb 25 '23
Good call! You can always spot 'em a mile away:
Before he traveled to Washington, D.C. on January 5 with his mom and dad to hear President Trump’s speech the next day, Bruno was finishing online classes to earn his high school diploma. (His mother, a veterinarian, stopped working years ago to homeschool her children.)
Not linking the source article, as it's one of those insurrection apologist rags (author's name rhymes with "Truly Smelly").

u/buffyfan12 Light Bringer Feb 25 '23
Holy fuck. An offhand comment. I really think we need to pull back on homeschooling and charter schooling in the us. We are raising dumb programmed kids
There was that one homeschooled who went to college and complained about the Neil Gaiman’s book having trans characters

Side story on home school kids, was at a good friend's on a Halloween, our 3 boys and about 3 friends (9-14) had returned and had all their candy sprawled out, a heaping mound of everything a child could dream for in sweets. 2 boys come to the door(10, 11) and rush over to my Friends wife, talk her up for a couple minutes, and leave. She remarks "They are such good kids, because they're HomeSchooled" I remarked "2 preteen boys completely ignore boys their own age with mounds of candy, to talk to an adult, and you think they are on the right track?" Poor kids already have a bad socialization problem

Brazil showed the way. Immediate arrests. Trump shouldn't have made it into the Rose Garden to express his love for this group of scum.

He's young.
Having a felony on your record for J6 is gonna make him a roofer or line cook at best for the rest of his life.

Thought it was Zip Tie Guy but it isn't. Hope he gets all 20 years.
See ya when you're middle aged asshole!

Zip Tie Guy was 32!
But he did have his mommy give him a ride to the insurrection. 😂😂

u/tattooed_debutante Feb 25 '23
It doesn’t make me happy to see a young mind negated by this kind of political atrophy.
But more of these Insurrectionists go to jail the more it pushed that this is just plain wrong and Downright Un American.

u/popemichael Feb 25 '23
One real benefit of January 6th is that a large swath of crazies are no longer allowed to vote thank to being felons.

u/PurkleDerk Feb 25 '23
Eh, not really a large enough number to matter.
Avoidable COVID deaths on the other hand...

u/stay_fr0sty Feb 25 '23
Also they can’t own/possess guns legally.

u/PurkleDerk Feb 26 '23
I'm predicting a lot of felon-in-possession charges in these folks' futures.

u/TjW0569 Feb 27 '23
Meh. It might increase the average voter IQ by a smidge, but there's been what, about a thousand people charged so far, and not all of them with felonies.
Assuming they convict ten thousand people of felonies -- unlikely, since I don't know there were that many in the Capitol -- that's still not enough to really impact a national election, especially if you consider that many of these yahoos are from deeply red areas anyway.
Covid has done, and continues to do more damage to the conservative vote due to it's self-selection process for Herman Cain Awards. And even that is fairly marginal in its impact.

”The bench trial came after a somewhat twisted journey in which Cua rejected an offer of a plea deal and at one point tried to dismiss his attorney and represent himself, explaining to the judge “I have repented of my sins.”
Cua is set to be sentenced May 12 in Washington, D.C. His actual sentence will likely be shorter than 20 years based on a number of factors, including the fact Cua has no criminal history.”
This child is going to pay for the rest of his life for his felony convictions. And I should know. He sounds like one of my sons. When he was young, he rejected the good advice he was given my me and his brothers, hooked up with stupid people, and was slapped with a felony.
After a year or so of fucked up employment prospects and living in shitty housing, we offered to pay for an attorney to expunge his record and to send him to college.
He declined both and the past 20 years have been horrible. Cops are always on his case, he has to tread lightly at his work ((HVAC), and what normal woman would sign up for his life (they don’t). Now Cua is going to walk that same road. What an asshole.

Room for doubt sadly. Fox or any of the other nutrags could give him a job, if not his own show.
This country really is that fucked up that that’s an entirely possible outcome for him.

With a lot of these J6 people, it was just stone-cold arrogance and ego. These asshats thought that they may possibly be arrested, but charges dropped as if they were 1960s anti war protestors at a freaking sit in or something. This little punk was so young, that he likely thought the same.
My concern with these particular felons, is that this wasn't just your run of the mill crime like DUI, drugs or robbery. This was a high profile crime, in which some of these assholes will have job offers and people waiting on the outside for them, willing to help them, especially considering the stans that they have sitting with vigils outside DC jails. So they won't learn a damn thing, nor will there be much punishment.

To be fair, this guy had the easiest excuse to be there. We all do stupid shit when we're young, and it's easy to get swept up into a cult like this. I'm not excusing it, it's just the least surprising.

Edit: Found a non-paywalled version of the same article
Sorry for the paywall, this was the only decent article I could find. Here are a few snippets:
He had a Stipulated Bench Trial, which is basically a guilty plea with extra steps. Mainly, it preserves a lot of appeal rights that are usually waived in a plea deal.
Here's another free article, but I didn't like it because it treats him a little too sympathetically, and the site has some pretty cancerous auto-play videos.
