I built https://t.co/R1jAMUfNTv — a free public database for American citizens who deserve safer communities.
You can track which judges released defendants who then got rearrested, skipped court, or violated their release conditions. All public records. All free.
I started with Orange County FL and will be expanding to all 67 Florida counties and eventually every state in the country. This first batch of info is from 2024 and since public reports are released in March/April for the previous year, data is behind. But I wanted to see if this is plausible. After adding 2024,I'll add 2025 and then figure out how to get real-time-data uploaded.
It's in beta — would love to know what you think 👇
Numbers don't lie, but criminals do.

DORIS “DORIE” MILLER: THE MAN WHO SIMPLY STEPPED INTO THE FIGHT
On this day in 1941, the USS West Virginia was burning. Bombs were still falling, the harbor was a maze of smoke, screams, and steel folding in on itself. Most men froze. Some of them ran. Dorie Miller moved to the sound of the fight.
He wasn’t a gunner. He wasn’t supposed to be anywhere near the bridge really. His job was laundry. Just anonymous work in the bowels of a battleship. But when the torpedoes hit, Miller sprinted topside, carried wounded shipmates to safety, and pulled the ship’s captain from the flames.
Then he saw the .50 cal sitting unmanned.
He’d never been trained on it. And certainly never fired one. He had every reason to back away. Instead, he planted his feet, wrapped his hands around cold steel, and taught himself how to fight in real time.
For nearly fifteen minutes he fired into the sky. Tracers were ripping upward toward Japanese pilots diving into the harbor, until he was ordered to abandon ship. Later, badly burned and covered in soot, he tried to downplay his actions, saying only that he had done the duty expected of him.
Dorie Miller proved the deeper American truth. You won’t always be trained for the moment, but you damn well rise to it anyway. When the fight comes, we improvise, we adapt, and we make ourselves lethal. That’s the spirit that built this nation, and it’s the spirit that will save it again.
December 7, 1941: A date which will live in infamy.
84 years ago, the attack on Pearl Harbor thrust the United States into World War II, forever changing our Navy and nation.
Today we remember the heroism and sacrifice of those lost on that fateful day. Their courage echoes across generations.
