    Absolutely not, nor should they. People who commit homicide are charged with homicide. People who instigate riots and conspiracy are charged with instigating riots and conspiracy.

      if you set out to rob a bank and you kill someone in the process you get charged with murder.

      Trump set out to overthrow the government and people got killed. That’s the same thing to me.
