In Savannah GA, Judge Harris O’Dell has given bail as low as $8,000 to black boys accused of murder; in the name of social justice. And wouldn’t you know it, murders have skyrocketed. Go figure.

Twelve year old murdered at the funeral of a gang banger just two weeks ago.

” that discriminates against African-Americans, Latinos and poor people.”
That’s it. Since they commit an inordinate amount of crime, make it not a crime, so they will not feel that they are being picked on.

Why not. The left politicized a f*cking disease! aids! people died because they refused to admit that it was spread by the practices of a certain segment of the population.

Leftism is truly a mental disturbance.

Bah, cities and states are running out of money, it’s all just cost cutting, regardless of the stated reason.

Hey Curtis, maybe something that’s 1000 years old and still in common usage, like bail has another attribute. It works.

What a bunch of buffoons.

I live between Baltimore and Philadelphia. If the bad happens and we need to bug out, our options are basically limited to West.

But, like most true Americans, we’re pretty well stocked for defense.

They can’t commit more crimes and make money for the courthouse crowd if they’re not out on the street.

“Your Honor my client....Is NOT IN YOUR COURTROOM BECAUSE HE’s IN JUDGE....COURT for another Charge”! I heard that 1 day a month for the 2 yrs it took to reach a Plea deal when the RINO A$$ AG plea bargained the M1 down to M2 when my 16 yr old son was beaten to death by a Sociopath wanting the jollies to see what it felt like to kill.

The Memphis Penal Farm is the place these lower felonies are sent when finally plead out. 85% Recidivism rate 20-60 lower felonies each. 90 day serve rate. REVOLVING DOOR. No one adds up the cost of Court, Jail, Public Defender, and Prosecutor never mind the Police that have arrested the Perp 20-60 times...and they take their accuried Communicable STD’s diseases back to their sex partners.
