On that gray day in January when the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., was attacked and many wondered whether America was little more than a banana republic, Scott Fairlamb came off as one tough guy. He wore camo. He shouted expletives. He punched a cop.

Two weeks ago, Fairlamb was little more than a crying hunk of a man, begging a judge for mercy in a federal courthouse just down the hill from that beleaguered Capitol building.

"I truly regret my actions that day," Fairlamb said. "I have nothing but remorse."

The judge dispatched Fairlamb to a federal prison for more than three years — at the time, the longest sentence for any of the more than 600 supporters of former President Donald Trump who have been arrested in the Capitol attack.

But Fairlamb's saga is more that just a court case. The story of Fairlamb, 44, a mixed martial arts specialist who lived with his wife in the Sussex County community of Hardyston and ran a gym in Pompton Lakes, has become a totem of our times. Why did a guy who grew up in a family of cops — his dad was a New Jersey State Police veteran; his brother, a U.S. Secret Service agent who protected first lady Michelle Obama — take the law into his own hands in such an abusive way when he stormed the symbol of American democracy?

The answer: Fairlamb thought his self-righteousness gave him permission to break the law. He saw himself as a true patriot. But this false bravado masked another basic truth — that he was little more than just a garden variety domestic terrorist.

Nothing but remorse my ass. He would do it again because he would do whatever his overlord and Q tells him to do. If you are so weak minded as that there is no help for you. He should be put away for life like all of them including Trump. They are all cop killers and terrorists.

The hilarious part was they had to wait while their shorty U-Haul shuttle kept making trips to get them out of DC. Logistics planning apparently isn't their strong point.
