You should expand your news sources, Moslems are being slaughtered (generally by other Moslems) on the regular and those bombings and shootings are always called terrorism..

I am choking with laughter. The best remedy for an idiot like Jones isn’t to shut him up, but to make people listen to him for an hour straight.

No, and that was my point. Once you’re out, some courts assume that if you can afford bail (or to make a bond, they are different) then you can command enough resources to hire a lawyer to represent you and will dealay appointing a lawyer so you will hire one. Thus totally coincidentally enriching the private criminal…

Jeffwqerty exaggerates, but it’s not nonsense. You’re right, “If you cannot, as a destitute person afford a attorney one will be provided.”

I’m a career prosecutor, and the way the bonding industry, judges, defence lawyers, and (probably) corrupt jailers work together is an awful thing. You’d think that the whole justice system existed for those three players.

Thank you, this was interesting and informative, good research.

I hope they convict him, the judge revokes his bail and has the sentencing hearing as soon as the law permits. 13 years is a long time.

“you shot them with the intent to kill them, that’s supposed to be the only reason you fire.”

The Chik-fil-a ones say “Closed Sundays” now.

Out there where exits might be 50 miles apart, the nearest gas station is probably critical no matter how far away it is.

Yes, Mr. Tracy is the “Does not  say something bad about some Republican in every story” affirmative action hire.

Yes, in Europe you had better do your research. Also, unlike in the U. S., there is NOT usually a restaurant, gas station, and hotel at every exit.

Word. Set a minimum price, and if there are more businesses than spaces, money talks.
