Kennedy Lindsey had a short sword, a steel tactical whip, a collapsible baton, pepper spray, a butterfly knife and a flashlight taser in her possession when a U.S. Secret Service officer searched her backpack, according to an FBI affidavit.

Lindsey was arrested in Los Angeles last month on charges including disorderly conduct and possession of a dangerous weapon in a Capitol building.

Lindsey was charged with a woman who flew with her from California to Washington, D.C. Lindsey bought plane tickets for both of them after then-U.S.-president Donald Trump announced that there would be a “wild” protest there on Jan. 6. Lindsey posted on social media that she was going because “boss man called for us to be there."

After attending Trump's “Stop the Steal” rally near the White House, the two women rode to the Capitol on the back of a golf cart.

Is our justice system really so bogged down that, 3.5 years later, we're still just getting around to arresting some of these dipshits?

    yes because we arrest too many people especially a lot of poor and disabled people in the US

    go to a court room one day looks like a third world country's disparaged population waiting in line awful place to be

    underneath that sweet layer of icing the US puts on top is a moldy rotten cake

    The FBI Director said, a couple of years ago, that it was the largest operation they have ever worked.

    Also, we had to find these people. Not easy to pick out individuals when so many are masked or pretty much look and dress alike.
