By now, you've probably read that a low-life punk named Enrique Tarrio, the "leader" of the misogynist, racist Stormtrumper group Proud Boys was arrested yesterday by D.C. Metropolitan Police as he arrived in town from the airport. Tarrio was, by his own admission, the vandal who tore down and burned a Black Lives Matter banner that Asbury United Methodist Church, a historic black church in Washington, had displayed last month. As he was arrested, police discovered two high capacity magazines for a firearm, which he was charged with possessing. It's worth noting that Tarrio is a convicted felon who served 16 months in prison several years ago on various felony charges:
"Tarrio was convicted in 2013 of multiple felonies (two class C, one class D and one class E) for stealing and reselling $1.2 million worth of diabetes test strips from Abbott Labs. He served 16 months in federal prison and served two years on parole. As a felon, he is forbidden from possessing firearms or ammunition. D.C. also has strict laws forbidding possession of ammunition for any gun that is not registered in the district." (our emphasis)
With this latest arrest, Tarrio faces some serious prison time as a repeat offender after he appears in DC court in June. As a danger to the community, he'll be out of action by order of the judge for tomorrow's Trump riot in DC, as the sedition caucus in Congress protests the election of President-elect Joe Biden. We hope the U.S. attorney's office will prosecute Tarrio to the maximum for his latest felony.
Since the banner burning incident, Tarrio has been quoted as saying he's not anti-black, just anti-Communist (which he falsely ascribes to the Black Lives Matter movement). Tarrio is what some call a "Cubano Gusano", the cohort of far-right Cuban refugees and their descendants who bravely fled Fidel Castro's Cuba for Miami rather than stay and fight for their country. He and the other misnamed Proud Boys are half-wit cowards whose bravery is in direct proportion to their number and to booze consumption. May law enforcement find cause to crack their heads tomorrow.
