    They are supposed to, but it happens. There is a reason we have appeals courts stranger.

      the point of those courts is to decide what is or is not free speech.

          you’re just making conjecture about how the US denies people free speech.

              i never agreed that they jail people for exercising free speech. that’s not how this works.

                Are you claiming no appeals court had ever ruled someone was exercising free speech after a lower court jailed them? Lol

                  you’re using the world jailed to mean arrested or charged, that’s now what we are talking about. anyone can be put in jail for no reason for 24 hours. that doesn’t mean much.

                    You can be sentenced and appeal from jail stranger. You don’t just sit free if you have an appeal. It’s extremely situational.
