    The bill, which was drafted in the wake of last summer’s Black Lives Matter protests, also penalizes local governments that interfere with efforts to stop riots; prevents people accused of rioting from being bailed out of jail until after their first court appearance; and makes it a second-degree felony to destroy a plaque, memorial, painting, flag, or other structure commemorating historical people or events (like, say, Confederate statutes).

    I hate living in America, I really do. Imagine getting a fucking felony over spray painting a Reagan statue. :xi-plz:

    Also they're clearly trying to get protest leaders fired from their jobs and kicked out of their rental homes if they can't post bail until after their first court appearance. Who knows how long they'll keep them in jail. Weeks? Months?
