Yes, that’s what I said? I’m sorry if you weren’t able to understand that…
Edit: To be clearer, I saw the comment about black people going “straight to jail” as talking about black people not being offered bail. Being sent, straight to jail, before even a trial. That is the so called “crime of existing while black” in this context. Is that black people, just existing, will be denied bail overwhelmingly more than white people, for the same crimes.
(There are other “existing while black” crimes depending on the context. Sometimes it’s being charged with offences that usually go unenforced, like jaywalking. Sometimes it’s literally no crime at all. All of these cases are valid reasons to use the term.)
In cases where someone has missed notice in regards to a child support case, because it went to the wrong address, who were leaving the country (to a city neighbouring the border) so they could volunteer for charity and presumably return on the same day? I dunno if any data on that exists, but if you find it, please share and then we’ll both know! But you have a good day now alright 😊
No, this comment thread started about the US having issues with locking up black people for no reason.
Talk about bad faith.

We’re talking about in general. Regardless of race: do people who skip court and try to flee the country typically get bail, or no?
You are trying to weasel in a characterization of “fleeing” which is not the case.
Mm yes, very “trying to flee the country” of him.
Nitpick the sematics and avoid the question.
Soooooo good faith of you!
You’re the one using loaded language. If you want an answer to the question, it depends. That’s called judicial discretion btw.
You’re really not happy about being called bad faith, are you? Yet you’re just tripping over yourself in your desperation to accuse me of the same.
How often do they grant bail in cases like this?

So you have no idea, and yet you’re absolutely convinced that he was jailed for existing as a black person.
Neat!
And just look at all that loaded language! So good faith!
