Wow. I think Nebraska did this as well(only for the voters to strike it down Angry). This is a good sign. Now we just need to hope that it isn't stopped by the ballot box.

The voters will put a stop to it, just like they did in Nebraska and California.  The only place this is gaining steam is among the elite, who want to boost the prison population.

If you do a crime, do the time. Stop making excuses for criminals. We can't have criminals roaming the streets doing their crap that got them in jail.

Eh on this issue.

Because clearly there's absolutely nothing wrong with the U.S. having 25% of the world's prison population when it makes up 5% of the world's total population, right?
if they guilty of the crime they should do the time.

But I'm with you, I want a lot fewer people in jail.  But unlike Dems and Pubs, I actually vote in a way that would decrease the prison population because the people I vote for actually want to get rid of laws that put people in prison.  Everybody got upset at all cops when Eric Garner got chocked out and died because he was selling a single cigarette.  Why get mad at the cops for doing their job and not get mad at the idiots that made it illegal to sell a single cig?


You want less people in jail (and fewer interactions with poor people and the cops), make less things illegal.

Regardless of your position on removing the laws you speak of, Choking out someone isn't doing your job.
