So it shouldn't really result in jail time like crack and powder. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173769?scroll_to=1666864 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173769?scroll_to=1666864 Wed, 18 Mar 2020 15:51:20 -0400 I think that this is great start to try to fix this corrupted system/laws. Drug are not really a threat or makes the environment unsafe. Even though they started in 2014 and nothing has changed i hope that they didn't give up and they our still trying. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173769?scroll_to=1666809 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173769?scroll_to=1666809 Wed, 18 Mar 2020 15:43:07 -0400 The system often give African Americans more time for the same crime than white people. A black could get kill 2 people and get life in jail because the judge feel they our a "threat" to the community. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173757?scroll_to=1666653 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173757?scroll_to=1666653 but when a Caucasian man shoot up a whole church and kill 12 + people and get 5 years in jail because they say they didn't take there pills or they felt threaten. Wed, 18 Mar 2020 15:30:36 -0400 I agree,the system is coming up with the most stupidest laws just to fill the jails up with more people to try to make the environment more "safe" but locking people people up for have small amount of drugs on them is ridiculous. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173757?scroll_to=1666579 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173757?scroll_to=1666579 Police automatically think your a drug dealer if you have drugs on you. Police is even locking people up for riding dirt bikes when that is some people hobbies and it may help them from staying out of trouble but the law makes everything illegal just to fill there jails up. Wed, 18 Mar 2020 15:20:18 -0400 I feel as just because people are incarcerated it does mean they should be treated like animals they our still HUMANS. They should be treated like humans they should have the right to healthcare, good food, and good living. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173737?scroll_to=1666490 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173737?scroll_to=1666490 People makes mistakes which is something we call life. Being in jail is already a punishment and having lack of healthcare is double punishment and wrong. Mon, 27 Apr 2020 19:42:13 -0400 I agree, because when they our continuously getting denied for a job they go back to"jobs" where they most likely will end up going to back to jail, because they have to no choice to when they our in need to take care of themselves. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173737?scroll_to=1666400 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173737?scroll_to=1666400 You cant get a regular job when people look at your background and automatically see you as a criminal from you pass. Wed, 18 Mar 2020 18:33:26 -0400 Parents who our incarcerated with children under the age 18 will most likely get into more trouble and end up in the system because they don't know any better if they see there parent going in and out of jail. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173734?scroll_to=1666297 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173734?scroll_to=1666297 There parent will not be able to tell the from wrong or right. Children that gets taken away from their parents and our jumping from home to home will probably end up in the system also so this is messing up children's life at a very young age. Sun, 22 Mar 2020 09:43:37 -0400 I agree with you because many people who been incarcerated have a hard time to turn their life around and stay out of prison but their past is always following them and when they try to get a job they get denied so they go right back to crime. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173734?scroll_to=1666222 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173734?scroll_to=1666222 Wed, 18 Mar 2020 14:49:24 -0400 i agree with you because i think police have the mindset that most our people are criminals and they need to make more arrests so we are all targets. The videos is saying we have the highest incarceration rate really proves this. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173722?scroll_to=1666204 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173722?scroll_to=1666204 Fri, 20 Mar 2020 18:07:33 -0400 I feel that its not right that they make it more difficult for people that have a felony to get a job. Its harder for people to get out of jail and still try to get their life together again when there past is following them everywhere they go. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173722?scroll_to=1666100 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173722?scroll_to=1666100 They eventually will go back to their old ways and probably end up back in jail.
