In most states, you can ask for a jury trial even for a speeding ticket.

Bad ruling in many ways. Watch how this backfires as I predict in the future they will be more likely to be charged with felonies. Prosecutors have nothing to lose.

So, what do actual citizens get?

I hear the tune of "Shaft" going through my head.

I thought all those abortions were done to get rid of the humans that were not wanted. With this court ruling, it paves the way for jury trials to determine if the unwanted babies should be aborted.

Hmmm. I’m not sure the USSC can shut this down. Each state may grant its citizens/residents greater rights than are afforded under the Constitution.

BULLSHT

“a jury of their peers” would imply citizenship.

NOPE go back home, crooked crooks.

“New York State’s highest court has ruled that immigrants are entitled to a jury trial, even when they’re accused of misdemeanor crimes that carry sentences of six months or less. The court ruled that the penalty of deportation was severe enough to warrant a jury trial”

Stuck on stupid.

Deportation is not a penalty for commiting a crime.

Deportation is a consequence for being a criminal.
