Isn't it amazing that you're in all the racist threads. Oh yes, I'm sure you have so much interesting stuff to tell us about why you're a racist. Here I was thinking you're a normal immigrant-hater but you're

Right, which is why you hate immigrants, and now we see jews as well - because they lie about you. Oh well, I didn't understand you were only racist because you were the victim of a global conspiracy to keep you down. Carry on then.

The DA is the one who offers you a plea bargain, or not, and decides how many counts they charge you with. And recommends charges. But yeah, after that it's all the judge.

If that's the case it's your responsibility to go over their head, all the way if necessary - as it would be for an engineer whose boss said to use Balsa wood for a support instead of steel. If Edward had to do it, we do too.

It can be 67 years at the whim of the DA. The maximum punishment is very real and they're just itching to use it. If it was an unbiased roll of the dice that would be one thing, and the average and the distribution would be meaningfu

No, this isn't. If that was your worry you especially wouldn't use proprietary software where the issue is much more prevalent. As others point out, you could pay FOSS maintainers if you wanted to. Instead, people who don't u

Says who? Neither of us saw it, so we can't know. There's a procedure though that we use to determine the likelihood of someone's guilt, based on evidence and legal arguments. Would you like to hear about it?
