Maybe just maybe we shouldn’t let violent people immediately out of jail…🤔

How could some people blame people who don't commit crimes if they kept criminals locked up.

What happened to arresting people and then not letting them go because they’ve obviously shown themselves to not be fit for civilized society?

I’m from NY, we see this all the time since the “bail reform” bill witch has violent offenders being let back onto the streets the same day they’re arrested.

I'm pretty sure that law only releases people who committed misdemeanors or nonviolent felonies.

My ex-boyfriend violated a restraining order, the judge says he has substance abuse issues and mental health issues, yet he violates a restraining order and they give him PR bail even though he is on probation at the time. Probation officer doesn’t care so he successfully complete probation even though he committed a whole new crime while he was on probation, he doesn’t show up for a restraining order Court, so he gets a bail jumping charge on top of the violation of restraining order. Then they arrest him like a year later, they give him PR bail again, they offer him a sweet plea deal where he only has to go to jail for like five days, which shouldn’t be a big deal he doesn’t have a job or a place to live so it’s not like he’s going to lose anything, he’ll actually get a warm bed and some food. But anyway he doesn’t show up for court, so he’s currently on the run from violating a restraining order in 2018 WHILE ON PROBATION that he has been arrested for twice.

All in the name of compassion and empathy. Too many people (on both sides of the political aisle) only have one tool in their belt, and it's a hell of a time convincing them they need a wider variety of tools (values).

A bill witch has violent offenders being let back onto the street must cast some powerful spells.

That's funny cuz the bail reform bills specifically mentions not to release violent offenders. Maybe the words you missed in the the article "alleged assault".

Has it become illegal to have green hair now?

That's... that's the joke. The whole "you must be an SJW with blue hair and pronouns which is the worst thing ever" thing if you express the slightest bit of empathy, or even choose to not dogpile on him for his appearance.

(I should probably mention some of my hair is blue and because I exist, I have pronouns, they're not any different than how I present or anything.)

Bail reform does not entail granting bail to people who would not otherwise be eligible, it means reducing (or better yet, eliminating) CASH bail. If a judge released someone on any form of bail when there was ample evidence that the person was either a flight-risk or posed a danger to others, that's on the judge - not bail reform. Cash bail is classist bullshit, and needs to go. If a person is deemed safe to be released on bail at all, the size of their bank account shouldn't matter.

You are repeating police propaganda, the police have been on a soft strike in NYC for years now and blame it on anyone who dares say that the police could possibly look into murdering less unarmed children. But it will magically go away now that they elected a mayor who is directly under the boot of the NYPD and the real estate developers.

Right because the color of a persons hair dictates their status in society, so my doctor with purple hair is a “probable societal burden?” Let me guess, you find people with tattoos to be threats to society too?

It’s not that anyone with colored hair is a “threat to society” but there’s definitely more people with unnaturally colored hair who have mental health issues than doctors like the one you made up…unless of course you can provide a picture of this non existent doctor who works in NH

He looks like such a nice guy. I'm sure the cops don't understand his frustrations with life. Just imagine having to go through life with that dumb ass haircut. I saw a guy get clobbered with a beer bottle once. That is nasty business. This time they'll likely require a $100 bond.

  1. Neither crime committed was related to a vehicle.
  2. There is no evidence that this guy was illegal, or anything other than a US citizen for that matter. Given that this is NH, he is probably a townie.

It’s politically correct, it’s woke, to look beyond the green hair, the metal, etc. and judge people on the content of their character.

Was me, I wouldn’t adopt that look if I was in any job where I had to deal with people on a daily basis.

Imagine a realtor, an investment consultant, a lawyer or a contractor who looked like that.

That look implies “You’d better be satisfied with my work, or else.”

I go to a lot of concerts, used to work some too.

You know the crowd you typically don't have a problem with? Metal fans. 10,000 "scary-looking" people that make that guy look mild for appearance, and nearly all of them will behave just fine.

Meanwhile, you have some show that gets the buttoned-up middle age suburbanite out like a contemporary/pop country act or classic rock acts, and it'll be a shitshow from before the doors even open. Police/security will barely be able to keep up with the number of people needing to be thrown out or arrested.

It's not anything to do with political correctness or "wokeness", it's simply that if that sort of appearance was ever much of an indication of average behavior, it certainly isn't these days. (this guy excepted, clearly).

baxterstate t1_j3snw0q wrote

Please don't make up absurd examples. I'm an old timer who saw Johnny Cash in Boston back around 1970. He had Carl Perkins and the Statler Brothers with him. No one got out of hand, no one got arrested.

I'm not saying that appearance is always an indication of behavior. We have the example of Ted Bundy to prove that. That's the exception. The guy in the picture is not what I'd call "dressed for success".

If you disagree with me there's nothing more I can say.

Answer this: You think the guy in the picture will look like that when he goes to court or if his case goes to trial? Of course not! His lawyer will make sure he's dressed in at least a jacket and tie. Probably have to pick it out for him. No green hair either.

> back around 1970

Yeah, and it's not 1970 now. Appearances, and average behaviors of people who look a certain way (or like a certain thing), have changed slightly. Another fun one - ~43% of millennials have at least 1 tattoo vs 13% for baby boomers.

> The guy in the picture is not what I'd call "dressed for success".

Well no, he looks pretty poorly groomed even for his style. Of course, I'd wager being in a fight and the jailhouse photographer aren't catching anyone on their good days, either.

As for the general hairstyle sort of thing - plenty of the professional class looks like that today, that wouldn't stand out at all in the average tech company, and those guys are pulling down $200-400k comp much of the time.

Sure. Some areas of the world change slower than others, and law loves it's traditions, procedures, and symbols - and the intelligent person in a courtroom plays the part when in one.
