As we’ve been increasingly conditioned to identify the term “domestic terrorist” with anyone involved in the Jan. 6 “insurrection,” it may be helpful to take a look at individuals who have committed actual domestic terrorism for comparison.
In the 2020 riots following the death of George Floyd, Colinford Mattis and Urooj Rahman distributed Molotov cocktails to rioters in Brooklyn, according to The Washington Free Beacon.
Rahman didn’t stop at just handing out incendiary devices to the crowd; she also threw a Molotov cocktail into a police car before fleeing the scene with Mattis in his van.
“This s*** won’t ever stop unless we f***ing take it all down,” Rahman said in an interview, adding that “the only way they hear us is through violence.”
Both Mattis and Rahman were lawyers, and both were disbarred after being arrested and pleading guilty.
Prosecutors in October 2020 dropped six of the seven charges against the fledgling terrorists as part of their plea deal. They fought for the maximum 10-year sentence on the remaining charge using a “terrorism enhancement.”
But conveniently for the firebomber and her accomplice, Attorney General Merrick Garland took office, vowing to “[battle] extremist attacks on our democratic institutions.”
