Just so we’re clear, bail is a temporary release from imprisonment while you’re awaiting trial. And the bail money is a deposit that you get back when you attend trial.

The purpose of lodging the bail money is to give you an incentive to attend trial, and the judge will consider your income when they decide the bail amount. A rich person might have to post more bail than a poorer person.

The last time I saw this question asked on reddit, the OP thought paying bail was an alternative to serving prison time if you’re found guilty of a crime.

Oh. He wants to hunt to the sheep. He wants to create them, let them loose, and then hunt them.

I was imagining the sheep would be his hunting companion, like he's a modern day Paul Bunyan with a giant sheep instead of an ox.

The US never dropped a nuclear bomb on Germany. They saved that for the Japs.

Bosnia is mostly white.

And Muslim. I mentioned that.

Sure, you can argue that the United States is bombing the countries in this graphic to try to kill ethnic minorities

No. They aren't minorities. There are more of them than there are white people.

You're showing your Eurocentricism.

 

As far as I know, she is the only Democrat challenging Joe Biden for the nomination.

 

That’s weird. I thought they said it was because he had a cold.
