    While I agree 2 years is not long enough, the shooting at cops was while they were doing a welfare check because he was suicidal. Not when they were going to arrest him for Jan 6th. He told his wife he was gonna suicide by cop.

      I guess I was confused because part of the article made it seem like the welfare check was somehow in relation to the January 6th thing.
