I was homeless just North of their border so the police here in Ohio set me up with a fake felony to keep me in jail. A dude stopped his truck in front of me while I was Doordashing, cornered me into a fist fight, and then told the police I hit him with my car. The people in the car behind me also backed him up. It never happened, so why was it so simple for me to be locked in jail indefinitely with my and lawyer telling me COVID suspended the fair and speedy trial? I cannot handle being in a noisy environment and have avoidant personality disorder, so I eventually caved to the plea deal. Now here I am nearly 2 years out with an ok job and my own place but I need to come up with $1100 before the end of the month for my fines or go back to court.
I’m convinced they’re just trying to create a slave class. If you are an easy target, they’ll take you and mark your record so you have to be cheap labor for three upper class.
How it is people could possibly believe in the legitimacy of legal systems knowing how they only make it easier for evil people to victimize others instead of protecting them is beyond me.
It’s easy. Nobody gets to see what actually happened. They see what Fox news tells them and nothing of what goes on in the Hamilton county jail. More than likely nobody is even interested. They either have their own problems or are comfortable enough im their life to think I deserved what I got. There’s even people who are such rent seekers that they think I deserved it simply by virtue of not paying to live in a house.
I admit there probably isn’t much anyone here can do either, but you have my sympathy, friend, and my understanding. Please, keep your head up. We are in tyranny right now, but we have to believe that the world will turn and things will get better. We have to believe, because that belief is the only thing that will keep us going so we can see that better world.
Well that’s some circular logic. I’ve got decent living prospects just around the corner, but it’s been just around the corner for literally my whole life. If I find another corner around this one, I’m done. The carrot is in kahoots with the stick.
‘Support’ bears weight. Hopes and prayers aren’t gonna do it. My roommate letting me not pay rent this month and then also lending me money that I can pay back before rent is due on the 5th is support.
All I want from here is for you all to recognize that police are a gang and the word of the law doesn’t matter. Spending time and energy fretting over which puppet is president doesn’t help anyone.
I believe you and you are definitely in good company. I am sorry we can’t do anything practical to help you. Please let the fact that we believe you be a comfort. Comfort is so rare in this world.
Peace though? I’m never not going to be afraid the police will do worse to me. They didn’t need any justification from me and there’s nothing I could have physically done to stop them short of dying in a gunfight.

I’m sorry our society failed you and wish you the best for the future.
I gotta say it.
Ok Boomer.
Society has failed everyone. It’s just that most people don’t see it.

I am so sorry for what you went through.

Nobody is gonna help me except my roommate.

Comfort comes in the form of an electric blanket.
