I saw that yesterday.
Time to build a wall around Illinois to keep the Progressive filth contained and let out the people that just want to move out.
The murder problem is bad enough already. It's going to become a lawless jungle.

Go to Seattle and look around. Question answered

Bail reform is a trend that is slowly being enacted in the US, not just Illinois, but Kentucky, New Mexico, New Jersey, Nebraska, Indiana, and New York have enacted bills to change their cash bail system. California tried, but the citizens voted to overturn the law.

HEY! can i take a page from the red cappers??? please??? FAKE NEWS! its a biased site! actually, it is:
CONSPIRACY-PSEUDOSCIENCE
Sources in the Conspiracy-Pseudoscience category may publish unverifiable information that is not always supported by evidence. These sources may be untrustworthy for credible/verifiable information; therefore, fact-checking and further investigation is recommended per article basis when obtaining information from these sources. See all Conspiracy-Pseudoscience sources.
Overall, we rate the Christian Broadcasting Network a right-leaning promoter of conspiracy theories via Pat Robertson on the 700 Club. CBN News, however, mainly reports accurate news that sometimes does not align with science.
Detailed Report
Bias Rating: RIGHT
Factual Reporting: MIXED
Country: USA
Press Freedom Rank: MOSTLY FREE
Media Type: TV Station
Traffic/Popularity: High Traffic
MBFC Credibility Rating: LOW CREDIBILITY
History
Christian televangelist Pat Robertson founded the Christian Broadcasting Network in 1961. CBN now serves mainly as a production company for The 700 Club and four other syndicated shows: CBN NewsWatch, Christian World News, 700 Club Interactive, and The Brody File, a news-analysis program hosted by political journalist David Brody. Pat Robertson is known for making extreme right-wing and conspiratorial claims.

Analysis / Bias
In review, CBN News combines secular and religious news with a strong Christian right bias. There is the moderate use of loaded emotional language such as this: Half of Pastors Worry They’ll Offend Someone if They Preach on Controversial Topics. This story is appropriately sourced to credible media such as CBS News. Editorially, CBN holds right-leaning viewpoints and reports favorably on President Trump. Regarding science, CBN has a skeptical view of climate change and evolution.
CBN also features a TV program called the 700 Club, with Pat Robertson as host. Pat Robertson has made numerous false claims and promoted conspiracy theories, claiming that natural disasters occur due to gay immoral acts. Below is a shortlist of failed fact checks by Pat Robertson.
Failed Fact Checks
Margaret Sanger “wanted a black Christian leader to be like a Judas goat and lead the blacks to genocide. Remember that? And they picked Martin Luther King as their spokesman.” – Pants of Fire
President Barack Obama attended “an Islamic madrassa.” – Mostly False
Pat Robertson said the feminist agenda encourages women to “kill their children, practice witchcraft, and become lesbians.” – Correct Attribution
Carbon dioxide is not a climate heat driver; we had an ice age when the Earth had extraordinarily larger amounts of carbon dioxide; in the 1970s scientists thought we were going to have a new ice age. – Incorrect

orange ass licker, i am. i questioning the source material.
|

i figure if i talk like a crass keyboard warrior, you would understand me better. i get that 45ers have a hard time with elevated discussions.
|

^ hey obama licker..
Do you really need an online utility to rate news sources and organizations?
You know that shit is developed by left leaning sources with Communist influences in China itself.
That's like the idiot who gets lost using those girly mapquest directions and cant use a map and a gps.

^"$100.00 says you have a poster or tattoo of the racist mass murderer che guevara"
give me an example of how che is a mass murderer.....
che is just a bad guy to you cause you were told he was a "bad guy". i bet you like Theodore Roosevelt, now there is mass murderer, just ask the Philippines.

Any guy who scares Fidel Castro with his bloodlust is just a cuddly human being.
|
|
paraass, answer my question about teddy. thats the problem with you weak sided debates. its a two way street. answer the question.......
|
|
La Cabaña prisons. Che killed over 500 prisoners suspecting some were CIA agents. Said they were all CIA agents. Went by the motto of “If im doubt, kill him.”
|
|
Teddy drove off a bridge the car overturned he swam away and let a young woman to die. And since he was a Democrat he was able to still run for president and keep his senate seat for over 40 years. God bless America. PS man boob you need to find a hobby maybe drive down to TJ and be part of a donkey show I'm sure they're looking for people just like you

"Any guy who scares Fidel Castro with his bloodlust is just a cuddly human being."
it must be nice to have a simple mind. no pressure on being knowledgeable. do think that there were no ameriKKKans in us history that had a "blood lust"? or are you confusing that with passion?
|
|
“If in doubt, kill him.”*
|
|
“it must be nice to have a simple mind. no pressure on being knowledgeable. do think that there were no ameriKKKans in us history that had a "blood lust"? or are you confusing that with passion?”
All I heard was, there were other murderers in America’s history, which is a complete straw man unrelated argument, therefore my guy who murdered thousands is not a mass murderer.
|
|
as i stated to para-weenie, show the proof on his kill amount......i bet its not as much as george washington......?? you simple mind needs to see both sides of life, thats why you and your weak-minded cohorts are simple. how can a us revolutionary be a hero and someone, doing the same thing for their country, be a villain?? now go on and chew more paint chips.
|
|
para-ass wipe, you havent even answered my question to you, so why should i answer to you?
|
|
You ask for an example. I list an example. I already posted an article of something else that happened which is the topic you’re flooding with spam and derailing and you cried about the source. No proof is proof enough for you unless Che himself put you in a ditch.

It’s not that I expect anyone on the right to be persuaded by anything resembling reality, especially if said realistic conclusions are drawn from such pesky details like simple math but uh.. do you all even research anything for a moment before spewing your Tucker Carlson style propaganda?
Here’s what the math says about your assertions on this blog:
“ Republicans from former President Donald Trump to congressional lawmakers to Fox News talking heads have repeatedly pointed to Democrats' supposed "soft-on-crime" approach, bail reform laws, and "defund the police" rhetoric from left-wing activists for fueling a surge in violent crime. But the Third Way report shows that "murder rates are far higher in Trump-voting red states" and some of the highest murder rates are in cities led by Republicans.”
Even in CA, republican counties have more violent crime.
“Homicide rates are 28 percent higher in Republican-voting counties than in Democratic-voting counties.
Have the hardline approaches pursued by Republicans actually reduced crime? Just the opposite, as Figures 1-5 show. Consider the most serious offense, homicide. In the early 1990s, the state’s 35 counties that voted Democratic in 2020, which contain major cities like Los Angeles and Oakland with diverse populations and active gangs, had homicide rates nearly double those of the 23 more rural, mostly White counties that voted Republican (CDC, 2020; CDPH, 2020). Today, after mammoth homicide declines in the state’s urban areas and increases in Republican areas during the 2010s, Republican counties have homicide rates 28 percent higher than do Democratic counties.”

^ 9 of the top 10 most violent cities in the country are Democrat controlled, have Democrat supermajorities, and nearly all of them have never had a Republican in power in the history of the country.

sleepyone, stop with the facts!!!
I do love the LIBTARD talking point, it's a red State!
No, it's the LIBTARD controlled cities in red States.

Wow check this, more on CA, it gets better.
Conclusion
California’s 23 Republican-voting counties stand out as uniquely troubled on many fronts. Their per-capita adjusted gross incomes (totaling $25,800 in 2018) are far below those of Democratic-voting counties ($42,200), and their state and local tax contributions ($430 per capita) also substantially lag those of Democratic counties ($762) (IRS, 2021) (Table 2). Republican counties exceed Democratic-voting counties in homicide and other violent death, reported crime, criminal arrest, drug and alcohol death, gun death, and incarceration rates. All this despite the traditional advantages of Whiteness and exurban-rural locales in boosting incomes and mitigating arrests. In fact, White people in Republican counties now have higher criminal arrest rates than people of color in Democratic counties. Republican counties’ low tax contributions and greatly excessive state imprisonment rates for both adults and youth generate extra costs that must be paid by all state taxpayers”
Better start paying your fair share high desert and Central Valley. Smh.

No one on the right who posts here, and most who try to call themselves conservative (most have no clue what that even means) have a clue.
This is bullshit talking points flushed out the conservative media bunghole.
It is to distract from the fact Trump is a deranged psychopath traitor who is about to get real justice and see how real criminals are punished when they attack the US.
Those that supported this criminal... You know who you are and so do we... Are scurrying for cover like the cockroaches they are.

“Among the 50 states, murder rates were often well above the national average in many Republican-controlled states and cities. Jacksonville with 176 homicides and a murder rate (19.776) more than three times that of New York City (5.94) has a Republican mayor. Tulsa (19.64) and Oklahoma City (11.16) have Republican mayors in a Republican state and have murder rates that dwarf that of Los Angeles (6.74). Lexington’s Republican mayor saw record homicides in 2020 and 2021, with a murder rate (10.61) nearly twice that of New York City. Bakersfield (11.91) and Fresno (14.09) each have Republican mayors and murder rates far higher than either San Francisco or Los Angeles.
Of course, some cities controlled by Democrats have alarming murder rates, like Chicago (28.49) and Houston (17.32). But we hear about these and other Democrat-run cities all the time. We aren’t getting the whole picture.”

Alexisalexis2.0, who is in control of MOST of the Police Departments, Cities or State?
|

We incarcerate an insane amount of people in this country.
Studies are clear that locking more people up doesn't make people safer. Having a "$0 bail" policy itself is not going to solve anything. But we need to do things different.
We need to rehabilitate these individuals so they come out a better citizen. In most cases the prisoner comes out worst shape than the day the person walked into prison.
Gascon's policies is not causing this rise in crime in LA county. He is trying new things instead of automatically sending criminals into jail for life. His changes alone was fix the justice system. Its needs change from all aspects.

^ The DA is the problem! Put their asses in JAIL, where they belong.
They criminals are not held accountable..
Like the ol sayin, "Don't do the Crime, if you can't do the time"
|

say what u like gents but Alexisa is giving u her source, so you can read it.....argue its validity with your own sources or confirm that she has some good points.
either way much better that the nonsense insults, no proof talking points.
|
|
OK, here is a link..
|
|
Just look at that, 3 of the worst cities for crime are in CA. Great job.
|

Lol like angler has gotten anything right, ever. We can see you5 past posts ya know lol! The pattern of idiocy is unbelievable and unbroken!

=========================================================
DA is not the problem. Its a societal problem. Many factors.
Having people pay for their crime is not the issue here.
People got mad cause he wanted to stop automatic escalators to jail sentences. So uproar for criminals who were already going to jail for minimum 25 years that didn't get a 10 year minimum add-on for whatever was written in guidelines.
He wanted to place an importance on rehabilitation. If you lock somebody up for half their life minimum, how you expect to get any motivation to rehabilitate?

"He wanted to place an importance on rehabilitation. If you lock somebody up for half their life minimum, how you expect to get any motivation to rehabilitate?"
Crime rate is getting higher, whatever the heck they are trying to do, it's not working. FACT!

Wow I never thought that this kind of topic would be allowed in this site, you made my day, not my day my week rather. I get extremely happy to see people see through the vail of deception. Let's keep an open eye for humanity in general no matter what their political, religious, sexual preferences or beliefs views may be. We all are entitled to have a personal opinion and view on certain things in life, but to pinned us against each other it's unacceptable much love to everyone...

A) it will be another two years, January 2023, until the no cash bail policy is put in place in Illinois.
studies that show little-to-no increase in crime caused by the near elimination of cash bail in New Jersey and Washington, D.C.
C) current system funnels millions of tax dollars into private detention centers while people wait for their trial and many times they serve more time waiting than they were sentenced. Basically, a nice way to transfer tax dollars into private companies.

Masked Racism: Reflections on the Prison Industrial Complex
What is the Prison Industrial Complex? Why does it matter?
ANGELA DAVIS SEP 10, 1998 12:00PM ET
Imprisonment has become the response of first resort to far too many of the social problems that burden people who are ensconced in poverty. These problems often are veiled by being conveniently grouped together under the category “crime” and by the automatic attribution of criminal behavior to people of color. Homelessness, unemployment, drug addiction, mental illness, and illiteracy are only a few of the problems that disappear from public view when the human beings contending with them are relegated to cages.
Prisons thus perform a feat of magic. Or rather the people who continually vote in new prison bonds and tacitly assent to a proliferating network of prisons and jails have been tricked into believing in the magic of imprisonment. But prisons do not disappear problems, they disappear human beings. And the practice of disappearing vast numbers of people from poor, immigrant, and racially marginalized communities has literally become big business.
The seeming effortlessness of magic always conceals an enormous amount of behind-the-scenes work. When prisons disappear human beings in order to convey the illusion of solving social problems, penal infrastructures must be created to accommodate a rapidly swelling population of caged people. Goods and services must be provided to keep imprisoned populations alive. Sometimes these populations must be kept busy and at other times – particularly in repressive super-maximum prisons and in INS detention centers – they must be deprived of virtually all meaningful activity. Vast numbers of handcuffed and shackled people are moved across state borders as they are transferred from one state or federal prison to another.
All this work, which used to be the primary province of government, is now also performed by private corporations, whose links to government in the field of what is euphemistically called “corrections” resonate dangerously with the military industrial complex.
