A state spokesperson says a man brought a handgun into the Wisconsin Capitol and demanded to see Gov. Tony Evers and returned at night with an assault rifle.
Dude showed up shirtless with a gun demanding to see the governor, and was out on bail by 9pm and immediately went back with a bigger gun and did the same thing.
The amount of money he has shouldn’t be a factor on if he’s a danger to society
It’s why I don’t understand how “cash bail” is coded as a law and order thing. How is it lawful or orderly to base who gets to walk free on who has money?
Cash bail is clearly about a class-based justice system: those with money walk free, those who don’t go straight to jail.
This why the bail system is bullshit.
