So, because the law may be ambiguous, we should not prosecute those who tried to overthrow the duly elected government?

Setting aside the completely false assertion of government overthrow because we have been around that block enough times....

If they committed actual crimes, they should be charged with the crimes they committed. In keeping with the intent of the laws written.

And that goes for ALL prosecutions.

The process should NEVER be "we don't like that, let's figure out what we can charge them with.". It should be "well they broke that law, should we prosecute?"

In the case of most J6 defendants (not all, but most) the former methodology was used. Also in the NY hush money case. Also in the NY civil fraud trial. Also in the GA RICO case. Also in the Trump J6 case. Not, however, in the documents case. That one was the latter methodology.

If the law is too ambiguous, it should not be prosecuted at all. It is legal precedent - void for vagueness.
