Mandatory minimum sentencing is one of the worse laws ever passed.
If it’s true that blacks’ sentences are 20% longer than whites guilty of the same crimes, then Holder is right.

It got rid of childhood issues.
The reason blacks are in the system 20% longer is recidivism due to violation of parol.
