    Ha.

    Pretty sure that it has always been their goal.

    These SJW ideologues perceive these competitions amongst the rich (for whom can be seen as being the most "woke" through virtue signalling) much as a shark perceives the thrashing of an injured fish; the dinner bell is ringing.

    The real question is, "How long do those of us who are neither SJW ideologues nor the bourgeoisie let this go on before we do sometjing about it?"

    Not crazy about either side's "politics" since both are pretty idiotic/insane in their own respective way.

    Of course not.

    The great majority of them barely even get to see the inside of jail so their absence of understanding of consequences continues. However, a few of them will go much further and that's how the Baader–Meinhof gang got created. we should expect guys like that soon.

    The police got their side of the story out quickly by posting body camera video of the incident within hours rather than letting the rioters be the sole storytellers for weeks. When the demonstration started, those that went beyond demonstrating into criminal activity were quickly and visibly arrested and charged with serious crimes. The initially high bail meant that they would not immediately be released.

    Can somebody more familiar with how this works answer a few basic questions?

    Is $1M bail unusual for cases like this?

    Is the practice of reducing bail done by a hearing of some kind, or does the judge just decide, hey, yeah, that's a bit drastic, let's throttle that back a bit?

    Would ya'll say that it's common to have a first bail number be extremely high ($1M here) and then be reduced to a more manageable number ($50K, I guess), or is this something that's happening for the first time with these suspects?

    TIA.

    That first bail number was really unusually high.

    Bail is normally set at the arraignment, at which time both the prosecutor and defense attorney make arguments about the reasonableness of the bail. In most instances the purpose is to permit the defendants to actually make bail while at the same time making the bail high enough to ensure that the defendant is motivated to show up. Factors for determining the bail include the resources available to the defendant, the ties or lack thereof of the defendant to the community, the degree to which the defendant is a flight risk, and the seriousness of the charges.

    "The Lancaster Police Department released the body cam footage of the incident within hours," to combat the false narative.

    "The police showed up in force on the first night of the protests." And they didn't take a lot of crap. One rioter got a rubber bullet in the balls.

    "Police aggressively pursued those who committed crimes throughout the night." The criminals didn't just re-start their damage in a new neighborhood.

    "Here is perhaps the most important part. The arrested rioters were charged with multiple felonies and kept in jail on bails set at up to 1 million dollars. As of Wednesday, at least seven of the accused arsonists and vandals are still in jail, unable to pay the hefty bond."

    Yes that’s high. When it goes to a bail reduction hearing it’ll more than likely get reduced. But in the meantime those suspects are still in jail. Pour encourager les autres

    This illustrates how badly we need mentally ill people in mental hospitals. As for little miss woke rich girl; I wondered what medical/first aid training she has?
