Will Chicago become 'The Purge'?

[DigitalDrifter]

Get ready Illinois, while some of this might still be tied up in court, eventually it will clear, and you're going to see a whole new level of criminal activity.

After months of debate and numerous changes to the final product, the SAFE-T Act in Illinois is set to abolish cash bail beginning on Jan. 1.

Recent revisions to the controversial legislation were approved by the Illinois Senate and the House, and Pritzker's office announced he had signed the legislation earlier this month.

The amendments focused largely on clarifying language on several fronts, including whether defendants detained prior to Jan. 1 will be released once the legislation goes into effect, and making clear which crimes would qualify for pretrial detention.

Illinois' Senate Democratic Caucus said the clarifications to the bill were made in "collaboration with law enforcement, states attorneys and other stakeholders."

The bill passed largely on a party-line vote in both chambers, with Republicans still voicing opposition to the final make-up of the legislation.

Minnesota should be the site of "The Purge".

With White phosphorous. And Obama should be hanged for sponsoring an invasion of enemies to our country and giving them aid and comfort. In Minnesota and Tennessee.

Let’s see…
the disproportion of accused will be black…
blacks vote exclusively democrat…
IL judges are disproportionately democrat…
mathematical law of transitivity says criminals will be released!
Not good for innocent, law abiding citizens.

The radical leftist ( many Jews ) should all be arrested and machine gunned against a wall

I wonder how many of these criminals will end up not showing up for their court dates?

A Black is a million time more likely to be harmed walking in the streets of Chicago after dark than he would be a KKK National convention on cross burning night.

Hopefully Beetlejuice will be one of the first that is purged.

Or not.

Here's the thing. Cash bail doesn't prevent crime, it penalizes poverty.

If someone is truly dangerous or a flight risk, then they can be remanded.

But all Cash Bail does was allow truly dangerous people back on the street if they had a relative stupid enough to put their house up for bond, while people who probably weren't dangerous (or even possibly innocent) were locked up for months or even years while the court system ground through their cases. All these problems were made worse by Covid.

she probably will, but don't expect Chuy Garcia and his porn star mustache to be any better.

Um, really? Because there are only 25,000 homicides a year in this country, and the vast majority of those (regardless of race) are killed by people they know.
