I’m really fed up with Rand Paul! His liberalism continues to hamper the progress of positive moves by the Senate.

I wish we had 51 more just like him. All too often, Rand Paul seems to be the only one in Congress who has bothered reading the Constitution and taking positions that are in line with this document.

People here may not like this position which goes against conservatives' puritanical need to punish people, but it is consistent with Paul's libertarianism.

I'll take Rand Paul's occasionally ill-tasting medicine over damn near everyone else in the fetid Congressional swamp.

Yup, not to mention he’s one of the few anti-war hawks out there.

Most libertarians would not agree that prisons represent state oppression, but most libertarians would agree the system needs reforms. If you have money and if you commit white collar crimes, even if you steal from thousands of millions of people, you get a slap on the wrist (or bail out if you are a large bank). If you are wealthy, you can get out on bail in 2 seconds and hire attorneys that can get you off just about anything. The poor, however, do not do very well. I've seen it first hand with my brother (who is white). Don't get me wrong, my brother deserved prison, but no where close to the term that he got.

That said, there are much, much bigger fish to fry out there than bail reform.

The cost of keeping them in a cage, that’s the issue.

Maybe, except the black faggot that murdered a couple of dozen little boys—he was from Atlanta. But, as far as mass murderers, black Muslims far exceed whites, Asians, and Hispanics in incidence.

Bail is determined by risk of flight and danger to the community. The left always freaks out when it counts how that shakes out in a racial analysis, but they need to look elsewhere for the reason it occurs. The problem lies upstream, long before people get involved in the criminal justice system.

>>flight risk<<

Ding Ding Ding, we have a winner. They take all kinds of things into consideration. Prior record(especially ‘failure to appear’ charges), length of time living at current address, Wife and kids or single without kids, business owner or jobless etc.

In other words, how much does this person have to lose if they run? Young black men tend to be single, no kids that they’ll admit to, live(stay) wherever the wind blows.

You jogged my memory about that black homo from Atlanta. Anecdotally I lived just a few blocks in Chicago from where Richard Speck murdered all those nurses, and my wife who was also a nurse worked at the same hospital as those nurses.

The most vile 2 serial killers were John Wayne Gacy and the BTK killer from WA state. Their killings were over a span of several years, and every one of their victims were tortured brutally before killing them. Hell is not good enough for them.

You forget Jeff Dahmer, another homo that not only killed his homo encounters but cannibalized several of the bodies—the gay way of course.
