Texas anti-ICE protesters convicted of terrorism charges sentenced to at least 50 years in prison

When I was younger I was fascinated with the idea of bank robberies. I romanticized the precision and planning of the whole heist ideal. I read everything I could on them. This was all before mobile phones with gps and cameras everywhere. Something like 90-95% of the arrests came from people being turned in by other people, either someone on the crew who got busted or people the crew members had talked to.

I came to some conclusions: these heists weren’t as complex as I thought and that they would overwhelmingly get away with it if they could keep their ****ing mouths shut. So the og mastermind needed to keep the crew very tight and limit it to people they knew very personally.

Anyway, dopamine addiction on social media has killed the heist for the most part. People post anything for likes. Even well executed stuff like the 2025 Lourve Heist gets cracked.

My whole point is that this operation was doomed to fail. Too ambitious, too many moving parts, too many people.

 

In this case, it was apparently the mother of one of the individuals involved who called the FBI.

They will be charged with domestic terrorism and get 50+ years, right?
