I think for any violent crime there needs to be some type of Bail. Something to add that extra responsibility and keeping that person in check. The bail does not have to be that high, but something is necessary. No bail is like legalizing all drugs, its too far in one direction.
- AngryData 3y agoI fail to see how a bail payment is going to make anyone behave any better. At best I see it making poor people desperate for money and thus more likely to resort to criminal enterprise. Also your analogy isn't so effective when many people do think drugs should all be legalized to both reduce harm to users and cut the cashflow out from gangs and criminal enterprise.
- mouse_8b 3y agoIf they are violent and need to be kept in check, why not just keep them in jail? Otherwise, people with money get better treatment than those without.
- Ekaros 3y agoIf we are going to have a bail. It should be high. Let's say 20% of semi-liquid wealth. If you are homeless and have nothing maybe 5 or 50 bucks should be sufficient.
