The incarceration rate is much too high in this country.

Freddie Gray was busted 28 times, many of those were serious charges. He was STILL walking the streets.

Should we enact a law forbidding jail time for someone until they reach 100 felonies?

28 arrest is almost unbelievable. I recall cocaine dealers getting serious time with about one ounce or more in late 89-90 as the Feds were really busting folks. As long as a person was tried in 90 days they all spent some 7 years minimum in the Fed pen. Why is it any less these days with heroin and oxy?

Did I say that just because I said the incarceration rate was too high? I did say something is broken if we need to lock so many men up.
