LETTER: If Jan. 6 was an ‘insurrection,’ why hasn’t anybody been charged with that crime?

Everyone is alert of the shocking Jan. 6 “insurrection.” More than 700 radical astatine the Capitol that time person been charged with crimes.

I person work done much than 200 of the charges. Typically, they work on the lines of: theft of authorities property; obstruction of an authoritative proceeding; entering and remaining successful a restricted building; disorderly and disruptive behaviour successful a restricted building; entering and remaining successful the assemblage of Congress; entering and remaining successful definite rooms successful the Capitol building; oregon disorderly behaviour successful a Capitol building.

But I could not find immoderate charges for the transgression of “insurrection,” a superior discourtesy that tin effect successful arsenic overmuch arsenic a 10-year situation term. According to the nonpartisan Marshall Project, insurrection is defined arsenic “to incite, assistance successful oregon prosecute successful a full-on rebellion against the government: a measurement beyond conscionable conspiring against it and requiring that important unit beryllium involved.”

Isn’t it unusual that we endured an “insurrection” with perchance nary charges of “insurrection”? Could it beryllium that the left-leaning politicians and media did a small sensationalizing? Maybe determination was nary “insurrection.” The lawsuit should beryllium renamed. Any ideas?
