Re: A Fine Use Of A Firearm
I think the greatest flaw in the system is the incarceration of so many non-violent offenders. I think prisons should be primarily for the incarceration of violent criminals, and that by far most non-violent offenders should be dealt with by other means. A change like that would greatly reduce the overcrowded prison populations.

Definately....
Reducing sentences for drug crimes would help immensely. Legalizing soft drugs such as marijuana would help as well. Giving someone life for having 200 lbs of pot in the trunk fo their car, while the average murderer leaves prison after 7-8 years is seriously dysfunctional process.
