Too Many Laws, Too Many Prisoners (article by Economist)

Felonies You Commit Every Day

However, you merely seem to think that America is exceptionally unique among all countries in its depravity. Given this theory of yours, perhaps you would like to suggest a means to reduce the prison population? Which laws would you do away with, for instance?

Ask yourself this. How many incarcerated are either illegal aliens committing drug crimes with drugs, other drug crimes with weapons, or gang related.

how many other countries allow these activities to the extent we do?

[Wild Cobra]

We need less laws, not more.

Add to that laws that not only make sense, but have a "purpose and scope' so they don't get applied to situations they were not intended for.
