Once again the Obama Administration is looking to give criminals a literal “Get out of jail free” card, claiming that holding defendants in jail because they can’t afford to make bail is unconstitutional.
Funny, the Justice Department has never cared about abiding by the Constitution before. This is just the latest step by the Obama Administration in encouraging courts to move away from imposing fixed cash bail amounts. According to a spokesperson, bail practices that incarcerate individuals because they can’t afford bail is against the Fourteenth Amendment, which guarantees equal protection.
What this will actually do, is make it easier for criminals to stay out on the street. This is just one of the many steps taken over the past year to ensure that criminals no longer face the consequences of their actions, especially based on the color of their skin.
If you’ll recall this past year, President Obama violated the rights of property owners to determine who should live on their property by basically forcing landlords to house criminals. And what about the Department of Justice forcing “Implicit Bias” training on law enforcement to destigmatize black criminals.
Welcome to racist America.

jESUS WHAT A STUPID THING TO SAY THE DO THE CRIME THEY BETTER DO THE TIME
The sickness that destroys the human race…has infected half the population….it won’t be long before the shooting starts…
Isn’t the purpose for bail to keep criminals behind bars until trial if they can’t afford it. Are they saying if a criminal hurts someone, or does a strong arm crime (gun), they won’t be locked up because they can’t afford bail?? That is the STUPIDEST thing I have ever heard of.
As an ex – Corrections Officer, I am truly enraged over this.
that’s funny as hell,and sad at the same time.because we all know which race of people will have to PROVE it and which one wount.once again Obama has picked a racist AG and like the last one they don’t care to even try and hide it.
Pretty sure it is to keep homeless people from using jail as a shelter……. logically
Do we need TRUMP in Washington? Oh Lord, yes, we do!
This b******t. You’ll felons out there and they will walk free, especially if they want to have a chance of getting rid of any evidence
So let me get this straight, I can sell all my possessions in exchange for an unlimited crime spree,murder and rape pass for the rest of my life and all I have to do is show that I only have 5 bucks to my name…hmmm nothing fishy here
Just BC he person is poor, doesn’t mean they get a free ride. That person knows right from wrong. Next thing the DOJ will say is BC the perp is poor, he can’t be held accountable for robbing that liquor store. There again, the DOJ is opening Pandora’s box. When will it stop??!
And what if the perp, who is poor rapes a little girl. Are you gonna turn him loose to do it again, just BC he can’t afford bail??! How stupid can you be!!? DOJ got lots of BOOK SENSE, but not a like of COMMON SENSE……….DONT’CHA KNOW!
