You already wrote this exact comment. You didn’t respond to me there. Your comment makes even less sense out-of-context than it does in-context.

It is obvious you can’t defend your position. Emerge from your safe space, bitch boy. Don’t just opine because your favorite baby-brained outrage daddies characterize progressive positions as “pro-crime”. Educate yourself.

It’s simple. If you are a flight risk, or a danger to others around you, a prosecutor should be able to make the case for, and a judge should remand the defendant to, pre-trial detention. Your ability to pay bail should have no bearing on this.

Progressives think you shouldn’t be able to pay your way out of jail. Progressives are right about this. Bail is stupid. Either you are a danger to those around you, or you aren’t. Whether you are able to pay or not, should have no bearing on whether you are a threat.

Not hard. If reforms need to be made around the edges, we are in favor of that. No such thing as a perfect justice system. Doesn’t mean New Yorkers think the old bail system made any fucking sense.
