"Williams was accompanied by seven other male teens, ages 16 and 17, who police said went to the Beaches Branch Library "to protest and antagonize the opposing political side."

"The group was there for no other reason but for ill intentions to cause a disturbance," Key said.

"This is not an incident of solely a First Amendment protected right, but rather one where they were simply there to cause a ruckus."

Duval County Democratic Party Chair Daniel Henry said in a statement the young men had been wielding flags bearing former President Donald Trump's name during the incident, and that the individuals they confronted were carrying signs in support of Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz."

Hitler Youth, Trump Youth, but I repeat myself.

I'll wager 1, these young dorks are not well liked at school, 2. Their parents will object to their being sentenced to adult jail and 3, all will be married within their first week in jail ...

So, let's see.

18 years old
First time offender
No one got hurt

My guess is 4 months in lockup . . . just to give him a taste.
