Stone gets three years.

I'm telling you all, if you ever get caught out there, BEG to be tried as a white man.
Still, my prediction is that he'll serve zero of it, because Donald Trump will pardon him and the entire DOJ will shrug and go back to work.

We live in an authoritarian states and all our institutions are just for show now.
For people of color to get a downward departure from the guidelines like Stone did, we have to bow and scrape. Show remorse, renounce our ways, PROSTRATE OURSELVES on the mercy of the court.

Meanwhile, Stone threatened witnesses, flouted gag orders, and showed no remorse.
It reminds me of how white people can mouth off to the cops like it ain't nothing. They can call a cop anything but a son of God WHILE the cop is writing the ticket.

Black people who try that don't make it home for supper.
