i never agreed that they jail people for exercising free speech. that's not how this works.
Are you claiming no appeals court had ever ruled someone was exercising free speech after a lower court jailed them? Lol
you're using the world jailed to mean arrested or charged, that's now what we are talking about. anyone can be put in jail for no reason for 24 hours. that doesn't mean much.
You can be sentenced and appeal from jail stranger. You don’t just sit free if you have an appeal. It’s extremely situational.
yes, that's the point of the system.
Which again, read the origional post stranger lol
really productive "the courts exist", great addition the conversation.
Says the person jumping in to agree aggressively
you're not contributing, you're acting like the courts make the entire thing invalid.
No, I am demonstrating that the argument doesn’t hold water on even first order inspection. And you seem to be upset that you don’t understand that.
Kindly stop wasting my time and go away.
