Crime: Explained in a way even liberals can understand (I hope)

No, you most certainly did. Y’all were talking about bail and out of nowhere you pivoted to abortion.

It’s like how you guys scream “Communism” or “Socialism” at the drop of a hat when we the topic may be something like school lunch programs.

Oh, most certainly not. It’s right up there [points up].

No I didn’t pivot. I used it to show hypocrisy. You libs really need to get some reading comprehension skills.

I dare you to link to one post where I had ever mentioned communism or socialism!

:rofl: :joy: Got it.

30 posts about bail… struggles with a reply… in comes abortion for the slam dunk.

It’s predictable at this point.

Confirmed you have zero reading comprehension skills.

Perhaps not you, but you can’t deny that’s a common go-to on this Forum.

I actually think you’re a pretty reasonable dude, but yeah, the abortion was a big pivot.

You feel people crime because they’re poor?

There we go.

No it wasn’t. You can’t claim moral high ground when you are pro something like that. It was used to show his hypocrisy. Wasn’t used as a pivot to a different subject.

NJ:

Defendants with a serious risk of danger or flight can be detained pending trial.

NY:

Notably, the legislation authorized judges to set bail in many cases “involving harm to an identifiable person or property” if committed while released after being charged with a similar offense.

CA:

Today the Superior Court of Los Angeles County approved a new set of bail schedules that include safe and fair Pre-Arraignment Release Protocols which determine release status based on an arrestees’ risk to public or victim safety and their likelihood of returning to court while reducing reliance on money bail as a condition of release for many of those arrested in Los Angeles County for non-violent, non-serious felonies and misdemeanors, Presiding Judge Samantha P. Jessner announced.

Do you have an example of a state letting violent offenders free with no bail?

I understand that you don’t quite get, so I’ll spell it out for you.

He raised the issue of “killing babies” (i.e. abortion) to, by his own words, demonstrate hypocrisy.

That’s why I asked about the Palestinian babies. A lot of them are being killed right now in case you weren’t aware. A lot of the MAGAs don’t really seem to care, not to the extent that they’re actually willing to do something about it. Some might call that hypocritical.

Tit for tat is all.

Yeah. True, innocent people are in prison (not jail - jail is where you go before you are sentenced). We should work to correct that, don’t you think?

Also true, people who can’t afford bail and who are charged with misdemeanors often end up spending months in jail and this becomes life altering as they lose their jobs, and homes because they were charged with minor offenses. We should work to correct that, don’t you think?

There is a strong correlation. Do you deny it?

Do you not believe americans are innocent until proven guilty?

Wow. What a telling deflection.

Thanks for proving me correct. They are trying to reform their system to get what you say. Here is an example of why your original statement was a lie.

Oh look at the parrot. Another lib that fails at reading comprehension.

Definitely

Yes that is why I said it should be based on the crime and ability to pay. Did you fail in understanding that also?

Your first link is Letters to the Editor. Got anything most substantial?

Your second link does not disprove the CA law does not allow for cashless bail for violent offenses.
