Comment on Silly goose
ArsonButCute@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 day agoIts perfectly clear, i can Rephrase it in midwest english:
I was at the courthouse in my neighborhood to try to get a ticket dismissed. You wouldn’t believe it, but there were a bunch of white people getting dismissed easily while African Americans all had court dates set to have trials.
Surely this was a coincidence, especially with a town sherreif who looks like a good ol boy with a gun. Certainly coincidence.

No contest isn’t a dismissal. It’s just means that you are not pleading guilty, but are accepting the courts ruling.

Context implied to me that a dismissal was meant by no contest, despite it being the literal phrase we hse when accepting the court’s opinion with no contest.
Maybe I’m wrong, Idk, text is tricky.
