Oklahoma County District Attorney David Prater made the decision to get tough on the rioters in an effort to curb any future potential riots.

“This is not Seattle,” Prater warned Friday. “We’re not putting up with this lawlessness here.”

Dailywire.com reports: The charges, which appear to be for alleged crimes that were committed a couple of weeks ago, also included “five defendants identified as involved in the painting of murals in downtown Oklahoma City this week,” The Oklahoman reported. “They are accused in an incitement to riot charge of interfering with a police sergeant who was trying to take a homicide witness for an interview at police headquarters Tuesday.”

The ACLU criticized the use of the “harshest possible charges” against the alleged rioters. [Oh, boo hoo, ACLU]

Prater defended the charges on Sunday, saying, “When you act like a terrorist, you will be treated like a terrorist.”

“The terrorism charges involved the burning of an Oklahoma County sheriff’s van and the damage done to an Oklahoma City bail bonds business,” The Oklahoman reported separately. “One defendant, Isael Antonio Ortiz, 21, of Welch, is charged in both incidents. He was jailed Saturday morning. If convicted, he could be sentenced to life in prison.”

“Several people were carrying flags that were identified as belonging to the following groups: Antifa, Soviet Union, American Indian Movement, Anarcho-Communism (solid red) and the original Oklahoma flag … currently adopted by Oklahoma Socialists,” police reported, according to The Oklahoman. “Several known supporters of anti-establishment organizations were present in the crowd.”
