If you have money, you can pay the bail and get released, while poor people can’t.
I don’t see why people with money should get benefits in the legal system?

It’s just as insane as asking this question on Lemmy.
No offense, but you’d have better luck on Reddit, which has at least a larger number of users who don’t veer as far left as the average Lemmy user, as well as decent numbers of actual conservative and MAGAs.
But yes, like the rest of the commenters here, I agree it is insane, prejudicial, and one of the most clear cut examples of systemic racism.
Back when VICE was still somewhat of a journalistic organization, they did a pretty good piece on it.
It’s very interesting that it’s just there, out in the open, and most people never seem to think about it.
I feel like the other answers undercut the message that you were trying to deliver. Users here are quite clear about when they’re describing their own opinions versus when they’re describing how a system theoretically works. Nobody is getting tricked about anything.
What I meant is that OP was asking for a response that not many, if any users here, could deliver here with any conviction or belief.
You might as well be asking for users here to share when it was they knew Trump was the best president of their lifetime. Just the wrong audience for that question, assuming you want a sincere response.
