    Citizens still face steeper bail over weed charges. There should be no chance of bail for crimes against children, doubly so for foreigners as they are such a flight risk.

      I am not saying I have a better solution, but how long do you think it would take for such a rule to be used to lock up trans people or drag queens?

        I hate how right you almost certainly are. I still say that at very least foreign nationals accused of sexual and violent crimes should be held without bail so can’t simply flee the country.
