Pendleton Proud Boy accused in Jan. 6 attack says Antifa and 'left wing' gangs are to blame

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

The lawyer for a Pendleton Proud Boys member accused of aiding in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol is saying the blame should actually fall on Antifa and other left-wing groups.

In a 93-page response filing in the District of Columbia’s civil suit, California attorney John M. Pierce makes the case that Jonathanpeter Klein, 23, and other members of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers did not come prepared to cause violence, but were instead anticipating it from left-wing agitators.

He also denies that an attack on the Capitol building or insurrection by Pro-Trump groups ever took place.

Klein, who is also facing separate criminal charges, is accused of participating in the riot as part of an organized attempt by Proud Boys and Oath Keepers to stop the certification of the 2020 election.

3. This one's from Planet Pendleton, in the parched NE of Oregon.

Probably grew up on a steady diet of RW Hate Radio and Sagebrush Rebellion horseshit. Has never met an urban Democrat in his entire life, let alone a "Leftist".

2. Throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks.

Not one shred of evidence of "left-wing agitators" on J6.

4. I would hate to know that my freedom depended on such a defense.

5. Stupid gets worse and worse

And just why would anti-Fascists and left-wing agitators be trying to stop the confirmation of the Biden Presidency? And why would right-wingers go to Washington to protect the confirmation from left protestors?

How stupid can you get?!

6. Turns out these rough-tough hombres

Tell some WONDERFUL fairy tales.
