.... this interpretation problem, because federal law has always guaranteed that privilege in all non-capital cases (Compton’s). Bail furthers the presumption of innocence until guilt is absolutely proven, beyond the shadow of a doubt. If it weren’t for bail, the accused suspect would virtually be serving a sentence for a crime he or she has not been convicted of committing. Excessive bail has the same effect.

Logically, bail is usually not set for an amount greater than the maximum monetary sen .....

.... of arousing other groups (like the Magyars of Hungary) to help her not re-take Silesia, but to maintain the Hapsburg dynasty as a major political power. France was also one of these powers to fight, they did not want a powerful army to emerge in Prussia and to ever become an strong enemy (ironically, that's just what happens). The wealthy British merchants pushed England to financially assist the Prussian aggressors, in the hope of weakening France and winning other fights off-continent. The causes which led up to the Seven Years' War, were very similar to those just eight years previously. King Frederick invaded another province, Saxony, and this .....

.... the medieval system of salvation and the very authority of the church. His chief opposition was Holy Roman Emperor Charles V who, due to multiple circumstances, was unable to impede Luther’s movement.

.... were companion cases from South Carolina, Virginia, and Delaware, all of which involved the same basic question: Does the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment prohibit racial segregation in the public schools? It was not until the late 1940's that the Court began to insist on equality of treatment, but it did not squarely face the constitutionality of the "separate but equal" doctrine until it decided the Brown case. In a brief, unanimous opinion delivered by Chief Justice Earl Warren, the Court declared that: "separate education facilities are inherently unequal" and that racial segregation violates the equal protection clause of the 14th amendmen .....

Stalin did not inquire about the specifics of this "new weapon" as he showed no special interest in it. Stalin only said that "he was glad to hear it and hoped we would make good use of it against the Japanese." War is an inherently immoral .....
