He
allegedly shot a couple people 4 or 5 months ago. He has not been found guilty yet. In all Western democracies, including Canada's, the presumption of innocence is one of the cornerstones of the justice system. If a judge deemed he was neither a danger to the public nor a flight risk, then there's no reason that he should be denied bail.
If he's found guilty, he'll be going to prison for a long time. There's no reason to go nuts because he was granted pre-trail bail. Remember that these rights also apply to you. If one day you are ever accused of a crime, I'm sure you won't be calling the justice system "ludacris" if you are granted bail.
