By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

From the article:
"Under the new system, defendants will appear for two hearings: an initial hearing, also known as a conditions hearing, and, if prosecutors decide to pursue detention, another hearing designed to provide a more comprehensive look at whether someone should be released or detained pretrial."

As grossly corrupt as Illinois (and especially Chicago) is, does anyone truly think judges will resist political pressure and other... ahem.. incentives to summarily release violent perps "of color," in the name of "equity?"

But then... Illinois voters, knowing what this abomination meant for them, still reelected Pritzker 55%-42% in November, so they're apparently OK with it all.
