Not always true. I dislike bail reform and I’m pro gun control.

And like I said, some of the people who lobbied for bail reform were directly involved in the Second Amendment case that overturned NY’s gun restrictions. I’m talking about the Bronx Defenders and other defenders’ offices.

I don’t understand what you’re trying to say in this comment.

So a story about how bail reform defenders are lying about bail reform, with discussions of specific crimes, that’s ok, too?

And people who wanted these bail reform laws also argued before the Supreme Court in favor of invalidating NY’s gun restrictions.

It’s a case study in four crimes.

Why isn’t this in the crime thread?

It did not.

Why waste all these words? Just say you want quotas.

Edit: I re-read your comment and thought about it and I tend to agree with your main point that the only thing that could substantially narrow disparate outcomes for black Americans versus other Americans is something like a second Reconstruction. I also agree it’s unlikely to happen.

Uncited infographics now allowed!

“Sorry, you have to leave, we don’t allow disabled people in here.”

Is that how it went?

Those donuts are disgusting.

Citation for these assertions?

I’ve done this as a local.

I don’t want to check your post history. But I still think you’d be bummed. I think you’re enjoying this thread. Mind you, I can’t prove it.

Edit: I did scroll back through your comments. Seems like about half your comments are calling another commenter an idiot or a moron or impugning their motives in some way. So this thread seems pretty on brand for you. This all reinforces my view that you really do enjoy calling people names on Reddit.

Oops, I confused you and OP.

My own theory is that the a lot of the people who complain about posters like OP would be bummed if they stopped posting, because they enjoy fighting with them.

Just block him and it will be like he and his posts don’t exist.

That term was applied to other parks, too. I think Bryant Park also was a “Needle Park.”

I fear the worst.

Are you familiar with NYC’s jail system?

Is it serious?

I’d have to check the data—surely there were a lot more people in Rikers charged with non-violent crimes, but I’m not sure how many. It’s knowable info from the DOC reports, though.

When you have a city of 8.5 million people, and bail reform prevents any jail time for non-violent offenders (regardless of how many repeat offenses), the 5,000 who are left in the system are very hard cases.

But yet all we hear from the progressive left is “mass incarceration.”

Is this a serious question?
