It's literally legal to blow up a Tesla. Jan 6 pardons set the legal precedent that organized terrorism involving property damage is just fine. Carry on vandals. I do not condone or reject your actions but I do understand them to be legal.
Crimes against persons/police officers were also pardoned
Important to remember this when we consider the relative morality of Tesla vandals. So far I haven't heard of anyone getting hurt so I think it's pretty mild.
Nope, it’s not legal to blow up a Tesla.
I'm legitimately confused. Why is this different than Jan6ers who were pardoned? I thought violent insurrection/protest was legal since Jan 6 2021. ELI5.
It's also illegal in some places to bring an orange into a bathtub, we use common law in the US so citing civil law statutes is not a valid argument.
I know you're a Russian shill based on your comment history, your home country follows civil law so perhaps that's confusing to you.

Jan 6th benefits trump, torching teslas doesn't. His doj won't apply the laws equally, the rule of law is long dead in the US.
If the law is arbitrary then everything is legal.
I see it differently. If the law is arbitrary, only the things the leader wants its legal.
Legal becomes a meaningless term then. If we can define words however I want my definition is equal.
Pardons don't make the crime they committed legal.
So being "legal" is meaningless then?
You can be pardoned for having done something illegal.
it's only legal if you are a MAGA cunt.
