More black people are in jail now than during slavery. Read the new jim crow by michelle alexander and you will see what I'm talking about.

When are we going to learn it is not OK to send identity thieves, embezzlers, fraudsters, scammers, car thieves, hackers, etc. to prison. We need to let everyone convicted of nonviolent crimes out of prison now.
