no its not

The drug company monopolies are too valuable

The goal is to keep non violent offenders out of prison and make sure they their entire life isn’t ruined by mistakes people make in their youth

this is already exactly the statutes that are being introduced in Seattle and Portland

In California and some other States, it is no longer arrestable (not even prosecuted, but even arrested) .... arrestable offense to steal anything worth less than 900 USD

yes, and so do all the liberals say when they campaign - now the facts are as above however

This is years old right wing fear mongering @Eden they say that about everything

this is NOT SPECULATION, its a fact - this is ALREADY BROUGHT LEGISLATION

More sky is falling stuff

please look up portland city counsil and seattle city council statutes that they brought up in the last 204 years

2-4

so that's your ability to respond to an argument and "discourse" a fact? "the sky is falling"?

I mean thats exactly why I said that there is no discourse with Dems.... because there is no response other than "fear mongering" and "the sky is falling"

So victims of crime are not defensible?

the city plans to set up a fund to partially or reasonably or unreasonably compensate them

Yeah just more fear mongering @Eden

It’s like laws can’t be changed . Like let’s say these laws get passed and negative effects are seen you think it can’t be reversed

Nothing is set in stone

@james j do you know, that ANY and I mean ANY at all argument or logical discourse that you can eve make, I can respond with "the sky is falling" or this is just fear mongering"..... like ANY at all, that is if I had nothing intelligent to say to contradict with a VALID point of view that would be considered???

Again you will never have a society where people on the lower rungs of society can have adequate social mobility under republican rule

are you kidding me????? PLEASE give me an example of ONE (lets say 2 is better) LAWS that were EVE changed in LESS THAN 20 YEARS....

Prisons will be filled and they want it to be filled because for profit prisons donate to them

Yes because society was more conservative further back in time you go

@james j are you kidding me????? PLEASE give me an example of ONE (lets say 2 is better) LAWS that were EVE changed in LESS THAN 20 YEARS....

please dont say stupid things and dont expect people to call you out

We are at point where most of society is less conservatives so politicians are more free to be less conservative

However republicans still only placate to conservative middle America

@james j please dont ignore what I asked

Please just fear monger and pretend for profit prisons are for the gop

We would need to explore the motive and who benefits to know if there would be reversal. If someone in power gains significantly at the cost of the community, the law is more likely to stand.

Will never decriminalize

I'm a republican, Trump is republican, we did prison reform, Dems DID NOT....

and again, please give me 1-2 examples of those "changing" laws you are imagining

You mean the thing that conservatives blocked for decades

Obama had presidency, house, and senate for 2 years during his term!!!!

he could have done it with a snap

Yeah and that was one the biggest criticism from the left. He did not want to rock the boat

We are no longer in that position anymore

PLEASE BRING at least 1 FACT to each major argument

Most of society is on board

this is EXHAUSTING, ALL you keep saying is the sky is falling

You are just fear mongering about the left
