Well the Dingo numbers are bogus, but the undeniable fact that the Christians that make up the 99% of our leadership, who expect forgiveness on demand from their omnipotent and omnipresent leader, have none for the citizens of this country. It was strange reality for a child of the 60's to realize those who met at Woodstock were not really trying to improve the world, they just were afraid to be drafted.
Interesting:
27% of federal prisoners are not US citizens. Strange how this place that the Dingos see as #$%* hole filled with ignorant lazy spellers is so attractive to so many people.
50% of all prisoners are in jail for non violent crimes. Drugs the majority. I say f**k the war on drugs, started by an #$%* and enforced by self-serving sheep.
Federal prison sentencing guidelines are the primary reason for prison population increase, increasing the length of time in prison 100% unavoidably results in a larger population in prison. The underlying crime rates have gone down a little, but no where near the proportion increase. Crime rates were lowest when jobs rates were highest, funny how that works.
I do not have any ex-con friends right now, but every ex-con I ever called a friend, wanted a Trike.
