that's one more thing to worry about or another excuse to shoot people holding cell phones.

I guess if you're a professional hit man, and the target names don't mean much to you, you might need a reminder for next Tuesday's assignment.

But you'd think your run-of-the-mill homicidal maniac would have a clear memory of the people who piss them off with murderous rage.

I'd think that status would be a reason to NOT grant bail, even without knowing about his list.
The guy is a dangerous radical.

They'll be using that as a defense for the cops who murder people of color.
