teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

A Florida man was arrested after trying to "run to London" across the Atlantic Ocean in a homemade, human-powered hamster wheel-type vessel.
The US Coast Guard intercepted Reza Baluchi about 70 miles (110km) off Tybee Island, Georgia on 26 August.
Mr Baluchi has tried three similar voyages before, all of which ended in Coast Guard intervention.
The makeshift contraption he was using is shaped as a wheel, with paddles that are designed to propel it forward as the wheel revolves.

A pardon is an admission of guilt, as the courts have already ruled.
An admission of guilt of insurrection disqualifies one for public office per the 14A.
So bring it!

Fingers crossed for convictions in New York and Georgia, then (those are state charges).
