Are none of the "Seditionists" turning themselves in??

It's not that they don't know the FBI is looking for them? It's been all over every network.

So, the only assumption to be made is that they are hiding from the law.

If they are consciously hiding from the law, they must believe they did something illegal?

If they were innocent, they would be looking to clear their names.

We can only surmise that they are all criminals.

You might want to consult an attorney.

and there is no promise of much credit for surrendering before an arrest warrant is issued. It makes no sense to show up at the FBI and say "you don't know me but I was part of the insurrection."

That's really OK with me, the insurrectionists should be lying awake at night waiting for the FBI to come calling. Let 'em sweat.
