Not life, but certainly longer than eight months.

@Byron8by7 What about the people who tried to burn down a federal courthouse in Portland? Is that not sedition against the government? What should be their punishment?

@DCarey Surely they can simply be charged with arson,?

@ninalanyon For burning down a federal courthouse? If you burn down my house, it's arson. If you burn down a federal courthouse, it's something much bigger.

@DCarey Convicting them of arson would surely be enough to start with.

@ninalanyon To start with yeah.
