    No this is a thing in blue states, and not at all related to being a citizen or immigrant. I think they call it “equitive justice” or “progressive prosecution”, either DAs will refuse to charge a POC for a crime due to their race, or judges will waive bail for the same reason.

      hahah well, i worked for a court system and that never fucking happened. its all about those numbers, and at no time in my blue state did the da waive off a charge because of their race. they threw everyone they could against the wall.

      thats just fucking nonsense

      but thats just from my first person experience in the system.
