The way to fix problems with American policing begins with dialing back over-criminalization of our statutes.

Crimes should reflect someone having being deprived of a right (life, liberty, property).

Penalties should be proportionate and not never-ending.  Criminal records (in many cases) ought to automatically expire as bankruptcies do if a person is out of custody and commits no new offenses.

Many crimes ought to be civil matters.  Many felonies ought to be misdemeanors.

And, above all, end the War on Drugs.


I don't disagree with any of these but can you give some examples of over-criminalized statutes?
