    We need to do more for people with weaker crimes and unfair sentences. We should audit everyone’s sentences routinely and shut down for profits.

    And 40 percent of incarcerated shouldn’t be in prison. They need mental help.

      I don’t think that drug possession should be a crime. They’re addicted to a substance. Jail isn’t gonna help. Sure, they MIGHT get clean for a short while, while in prison, but then when they come out, they wouldn’t have dealt with their issues. They need support, not fucking prison.
