does it account for regional differenes, like one judge being a hardass, another not being one as much, frequency of crime in those regions, would be a factor as well, i would say. Its one thing to have to judge about violent crimes once a day, its another to do it several times a day, and that will have an effect on the harshness a judge will judge crimes by
I mean you're dealing with circumstantial sentencing across a variety of legal and social contexts. You're probably never going to account for *everything*
@Avald that would be looking at things at the district level. The study does imply that states were a factor, but I haven’t read it thoroughly enough to see how.
@Beemann that’s true that there are tons of different factors, but presenting a national aggregate number doesn’t actually prove anything at this point. At least pointing out any individual districts that had any major disparity in sentencing would at least give a direction on where a more in-depth investigation could occur.
That's kind of my point
We’re agreeing. Yes! Lol
Would also suggest that if you did find a "racist district", and I wouldn't be surprised if there were a few with biased judges, that's still not reflective of the nation or the justice system as a whole
Right. A 2-3 districts isn’t the whole. I actually think there probably are 2 or 3 districts with possibly racist judges
Beeman, y u no auto agree with yo fellow canuk ?
Who?
Fondest
is Canadian, aren't you canadian
Oh, didn't realize he was. Doesn't really change my position. I disagree with many of my fellow countrymen
And yeah, west coast
Does BC want to join the USA?
"Alaska but prettier"
I think we almost did at one point, but no
"California but cold"
LOL
thta's WA state
We're the same climate as n. Washington in s. BC
Trump's on the wrong tack trying to buy greenland. Historically, we just send new residents with guns, they take over, and petition for annexation. Seems like it could work in Western Knuckistan
If you send em fron WA you're just sending Canadians back fam
it's a win win ether way
Tbh Canadians tend to move to the 'States because they genuinely like it
Im not aware of a Commiefornia to Texas style exodus
Maybe there is back east though?
idk
the northeast is already so leftist I don't think it makes a difference
I live in CA and I want to move to TX, people trying to make me feel bad about it or discourage me, it's annoying
it's because Texas and Arizona are turning blue thanks to people moving while still voting for cali politics
most of the places I've been welcome newcomers if you largely share their politics
also shame or not moving out of cali just makes sense
that's the 2nd biggest reason I'm leaving
politics
yeah it sucks too because california is a beautiful state
California is like that really hot girl that you see from a distance but find out she's hideous and stupid on the inside.
big oof
You seem all right, Clive, not at all like I expect the average Californian to be. It's just that we are tired of seeing things like an absolute joke like Beta O'Rourke almost being elected to the Senate.
at 24:31 in the live stream, Blonde says that, when she doesn't see a manifesto, she believes there some kind of mental illness at play. she dum
Also, judging by the fact that a few weeks ago a woman with california plates almost backed into me at a school drop off lane, I'm going to say that Californians are really shitty drivers, and I say that as a Texan, and we already have a reputation for our skill behind a wheel.
