That's the American way.
This comes from someone that can be locked up as an "enemy combatant" if decreed so by the law that was signed this week by our beloved president.
Will I be locked up while awaiting trial?
Heck, I haven't even left the country.
So, am I innocent until I can prove so? Or is there a burden of proof to find my guilt?
We live in a topsie turvey world, up is down, truth is a lie, the media is to blame for the actions of leaders, and parents are to blame for the im's of a pedophile.
Who'd a thunk it?

Orwell?
People are often times held in jail before trial. OJ was in jail until the trial ended. Even for minor offenses, you may be held in jail unless you post bond.

OJ should have gone to a rehab. But that's a completely different case.
So, answer this...if you're accused (see above), and you're not really an "enemy combatant"...do you still have to sit in a cell if you can't raise bond?

If you're accused of practically anything, you will have to sit in jail until trial if you don't have the money to post bail.

By the way, if you don't like the stuff going on right now then you can blame both parties. Nothing is going to change if a democrat becomes President. The Patriot Act and all that kind of stuff has bipartisan support. The most important thing to the mainstream of both parties is keeping the country safe.

99% of the criticism you hear about the Patriot Act is simply partisan rhetoric. If a democrat was President right now, there would be some republicans crying that the President is taking away our rights. For the most part, the only people that fall for this nonsense are the extremists in both parties.
