Is Senator McCain preparing to attack Senator Obama on crime issues?
Over at The Atlantic, Marc Ambinder has this notable new post suggesting that old-school "soft-on-crime" attacks are part of Senator McCain's strategy to get back his mojo in the final month of the 2008 campaign:
This Tuesday's debate will determine whether there's any re-tightening in battleground states, with the McCain campaign conceding that if the election were to be held this Tuesday, Obama would win more than 300 electoral votes....
Here is the gameplan [for issues on which to attack Senator Obama]:...
2. Obama's record on crime. "Far outside the mainstream." Crime record -- far outside the mainstream...issues like gang violence and crack/powder retroactivity (which even the Bush admin supports but is not popular)... Are they skating close to the race line here? The McCain camp turns it around: since when is a black candidate given a free pass on these issues?
As regular readers know, I have been itching for crime and punishment to be a campaign issue for quite some time. I am not especially surprised that the campaign of Senator McCain would return to classic line of attack on Democrats; indeed, I am surprised that this issue has not come up sooner.
Because there has been so little campaign talk about crime and punishment, it will be interesting to see how the McCain campaign will try to get this issue attention and also whether the media (both mainstream and online) will make up for lost time by giving the issue the coverage it merits. Interestingly, I see that John McCain's website has this updated page on "Fighting Crime," but I do not yet see any new video focused on crime and punishment issues.

If all McCain has to attack Obama with are the votes in the linked item, stick a fork in the GOP nominee, he's done. Crime is declining and that's just not what the public cares about right now. We're in "it's the economy, stupid," mode. I do think the blogger correctly outlines McCain's likely attacks, I just don't think they'll resonate.
Obama must go negative too, now - it's just the nature of the game. Expect rehashing of McCain's activities as part of the Keating 5, his vote to eliminate Glass-Steagall, and his longstanding support for deregulation of all stripes that led to the current economic mess.
Those issues, to me, have sort of a reverse criminal justice angle. The things that caused the crisis not only should be illegal, most of them USED to be illegal, but deregulation eliminated those laws. That's why I doubt we'll see many, if any prosecutions from the current Wall Street fiasco.

I agree with Gritsforbreakfast. Crime is simply not what everyone is interested in (except perhaps the city of Detroit?) ;)
Either way, this old-school tactic won't fly and McCain has to be a bit more innovative with his last minute rallying methods.

Neither candidate can afford to try to make their bones on the crime issue, as it will immediately turn around to bite them both in the backside. Between Senator Obama's admitted illicit drug use and Cindy McCain's theft of a non-profit's proceeds to feed her own addiction, neither candidate can ride the moral high horse without risk getting knocked off it and onto said backsides in a very publicly embarrassing way.
And given the degree to which minorities in this country are disproportionately affected by the War on Drugs, as shown by their incarceration rates being well in excess of their actual numbers in the population, any attempt by Senator McCain to make political capital on the crime issue would be like getting too close to a singularity; you'll get torn apart by the (in this case, racial) forces surrounding it. Pots and kettles, all around...

AMERICA'S JUDICIAL SYSTEM NEEDS....C*H*A*N*G*E......
SENATOR OBAMA PLEASE LET THIS COUNTRIES VOTERS KNOW YOUR FEELINGS AND THOUGHTS ABOUT A NEEDED FUTURE REPAIR AND RENOVATION OF OUR BROKEN JUDICIAL SYSTEM THAT CONTINUES TO ALLOW THE EXECUTION'S OF EVEN POSSIBLE INNOCENT AMERICAN’S LIKE TROY DAVIS OF GEORGIA ?????
BEING THE WEALTHIEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD SENATOR OBAMA, DON'T WE NEED AS THE LEADERS OF THE FREE WORLD TO BEGIN ONCE AGAIN TO RE-INVEST THE PROPER MONIE$ IN OUR OWN US JUDICIAL SYSTEM, ASSURING ALL OF OUR CITIZENS THEIR RIGHTS TO FAIR TRIALS WITH PROPER LEGAL REPRESENTATION ???
DOES GOD NEED TO LOBBY OUR US CONGRESSIONAL LEADERS OF THE FREE WORLD ON BEHALF OF OUR poorer american’s SENATOR OBAMA,OR ARE YOU WATCHING OUT FOR THEM ?? ***OUR US CONGRESS CONTINUES TO DENY MIDDLE CLASS AND WORKING POOR AMERICANS PROPER LEGAL REPRESENTATION EVEN THOUGH WRONGFUL EXECUTIONS & FALSE INCARCERATIONS CONTINUE ALL ACROSS AMERICA ???
*** 700 BILLION $$$ AVAILABLE FOR US BAILOUT, & NO $$$ FOR ALL POORER AMERICANS PROPER LEGAL REPRESENTATION ?
SENATOR OBAMA, THIS JUDICIAL INJUSTICE HAS BECOME AN AMERICAN ART FORM, AND NO LONGER CAN BE KEPT HIDDEN OR SECRET FROM THE AMERICAN PEOPLE EVEN IF CERTAIN (501c3) U$ RELIGIOU$ LEADER$ HAVE BEEN $ILENCED ??
LETS ALL HOPE OUR MEDIA FRIENDS CONTINUE TO SHOW AN INTEREST IN REPORTING ON THIS AMERICAN HORROR FACING THESE (TENS OF THOUSANDS) FORGOTTEN AND TRAPPED POORER AMERICANS, AND HOW THIS PRESIDENTIAL CONTENDER HANDLES THIS VERY SERIOUS ISSUE FACING AMERICA’S LATINO AND BLACK AMERICAN COMMUNITIES ????
WITH 80% OF THE BLACK AMERICAN VOTERS SAYING THEY SUPPORT SENATOR OBAMA IN THIS PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, IT IS ONLY FAIR FOR EVERYONE TO KNOW PRIOR BEING ELECTED OUR NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES HOW THIS DEMOCRATIC SENATOR TRULY FEELS ABOUT THIS AMERICAN JUDICIAL INJUSTICE CONTINUING TO INFLICT GRAVE HARM ON THE BLACK & LATINO AMERICAN FAMILIES AND THEIR COMMUNITIES NATIONWIDE ??????
*** WHEN GOD’S FACE BECAME VERY RED *** THE US SUPREME COURT GAVE ENEMY COMBATANTS FEDERAL APPEAL HC RIGHTS LAWYERS AND PROPER ACCESS TO US FEDERAL COURTS,AND POORER AMERICANS (MANY EVEN ON DEATH ROW) ARE DENIED PROPER FEDERAL APPEAL LEGAL REPRESENTATION TO OUR US FEDERAL COURTS OF APPEAL, AND ROTTING IN AMERICAN PRISONS NATIONWIDE ?????????
**** INNOCENT AMERICANS ARE DENIED REAL HC RIGHTS WITH THEIR FEDERAL APPEALS ! THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE $LOWLY FINDING OUT HOW EA$Y IT I$ FOR MIDDLE CLA$$ AND WORKING POOR AMERICAN$ TO FALL VICTIM TO OUR U$ MONETARY JUDICIAL $Y$TEM.
****WHEN THE US INNOCENT WERE ABANDONED BY THE GUILTY **** The prison experts have reported that there are 100,000 innocent Americans currently being falsely imprisoned along with the 2,300,000 total US prison population nationwide.
***WHERE ARE AMERICA'S RELIGIOUS LEADERS ???????
Since our US Congress has never afforded poor prison inmates federal appeal legal counsel for their federal retrials,they have effectively closed the doors on these tens of thousands of innocent citizens ever being capable of possibly exonerating themselves to regain their freedom through being granted new retrials.
This same exact unjust situation was happening in our Southern States when poor and mostly uneducated Black Americans were being falsely imprisoned for endless decades without the needed educational skills to properly submit their own written federal trial appeals.
This devious and deceptive judicial process of making our poor and innocent prison inmates formulate and write their own federal appeal legal cases for possible retrials on their state criminal cases,is still in effect today even though everyone in our US judicial system knows that without proper legal representation, these tens of thousands of innocent prison inmates will be denied their rightful opportunities of ever being granted new trials from our federal appeal judges!!
Sadly, the true US *legal* Federal Appeal situation that occurs when any of our uneducated American prison inmates are forced to attempt to submit their own written Federal Appeals (from our prisons nationwide) without the assistance of proper legal counsel, is that they all are in reality being denied their legitimate rights for Habeas Corpus with our US FEDERAL COURTS and will win any future Supreme Court Case concerning this injustice!
For our judicial system and our US Congressional Leaders Of The Free World to continue to pretend that this is a real and fair opportunity for our American Middle Class and Working Poor Citizens, only delays the very needed future change of Federal Financing of all these Federal appeals becoming a normal formula of Our American judicial system.
It was not so very long ago that Public Defenders became a Reality in this country.Prior that legal reality taking place, their were also some who thought giving anyone charged with a crime a free lawyer was a waste of taxpayers $$.
This FACADE and HORROR of our Federal Appeal proce$$ is not worthy of the Greatest Country In The World! ***GREAT SOCIETIES THAT DO NOT PROTECT EVEN THEIR INNOCENT, BECOME THE GUILTY !
A MUST READ ABOUT AMERICAN INJUSTICE:
1) YAHOO 2) GOOGLE MANNY GONZALES THE KID THAT EVERYONE FORGOT IN THE CA PRISON SYSTEM.
** A JUDICIAL RIDE OF ONES LIFE !
***Someone please tell our US Congress that the GED degree that Manny Gonzales acquired in prison is not a LAW DEGREE !!!!!!

I'm a student. I don't think we need change and don't want change. I think Mccain would do good. I do think he will do a lot of good with the economy. But concentrating on crime will not help. Crime is everywhere and always will be.

"I don't think we need change and don't want change.
Sometimes we get afraid when we are unable to predict the effects of change. But positive change is always good.

IS THIS REPORTED GAY SANTA MONICA COMMISSIONER JUST ONE BAD EXAMPLE OF A NEW POLICY IN AMERICAN FAMILY COURTS ALL ACROSS AMERICA OF DON'T ASK AND WE WON'T TELL ???
LAWYERS FOR POOR AMERICANS IS VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE VERY REAL POSSIBILITY THAT COMMISSIONER DAVID J. COWAN OF SANTA MONICA CA COURT HOUSE IS A CLOSET GAY MAN OR FOR THAT MATTER ~ OPEN GAY MAN, THAT HAS SOMEHOW BEEN GIVEN COURT CASES INVOLVING FAMILY CHILD CUSTODY ISSUES AND IS THE NEWEST FACE OF WHAT IS TO COME IN AMERICAN FAMILY COURTS ACROSS AMERICA ?????????????????
MR.DAMON DUVAL AND HIS TWO WONDERFUL CHILDREN (MAYA & JAZZ ) HAVE ALL NOW BEEN KEPT APART FROM ENJOYING EACH OTHERS COMPANY BY COMMISSIONER DAVID J. COWAN SINCE DECENBER 4 2008. FOR SOME VERY UNCLEAR REASONING THIS APPARENT GAY NAPOLEON COMMISSIONER APPEARS TO BE MORE INTERESTED IN MR.DUVALS MENTAL HEALTH STATUS THEN THE LIVE IN BOYFRIEND OF HIS EX WIFE OF THE LAST 2 YRS., WHO HAS BEEN REPORTED TO THE EL SEGUNDO POLICE DEPARTMENT AS HAVING TOUCHED MR. DUVALS LITTLE 3 YR OLD MAYA ON HER PRIVATE PARTS ??
THIS SANTA MONICA COURT COMMISSIONER APPOINTED CHILDREN'S COUNCIL AT MR. DUVALS REQUEST (LAWYER AMY NEIMAN OF SANTA MONICA CA) WHO HAS BEEN MORE INTERESTED IN ACTING AS A MENTAL HEALTH EXPERT( WITHOUT THE QUALIFIED DEGREES ) AND MISLEADING THIS CHILD CUSTODY MATTER INTO GAY NEVER NEVER LAND WITH THIS SANTA MONICA COMMISSIONER FOLLOWING HER FEMALE INTUITION & ADVICE CONCERNING THE MENTAL HELATH STATUS OF MR. DUVAL!
FOR SOMEONE WITHOUT MENAL HEALTH DEGREES TO QUESTION THE PROFESSIONAL JUDGEMENT OF THE MENTAL HEALTH EXPERT WHO HAS ALWAYS STATED CLEARLY TO THE COURT THAT MR. DUVAL IS OF SOUND MIND AND WOULD TESTIFY IN PERSON TO THE COURT CONCERNING THIS FACT, IS ALMOST ANOTHER FUTURE LEGAL CASE FOR LA COUNTY WAITING TO HAPPEN ?
**WE STRONGLY ENCOURAGE THE LA COUNTY COURT SYSTEM TO OPEN A INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION INTO THE SERIOUS COMPLICATIONS THAT ENCOMPASS THIS POSSIBLE CHILD PEDOPHILE CUSTODY CASE AND HOPE THAT ALL CURRENT COURT APPOINTED LAWYERS WORKING FOR LA COUNTY LIKE AMY NEIMAN ARE ADVISED TO HELP PREVENT CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS RATHER THEN CREATING ONE IN THE FUTURE !
LAWYERS FOR POOR AMERICANS WILL CONTINUE WRITING ABOUT THIS SPECIFIC LEGAL CASE ON THE WWW UNTIL A PROPER OUTSIDE INVESTIGATION OF THESE PEDOPHILE CHARGES HAS BEEN PROPERLY ANSWERED !!!
LAWYERS FOR POOR AMERICANS HAS A VERY DIFFICULT TIME WITH ANY RESULTS THAT COME FROM THE EL SEGUNDO POLICE CONCERNING THIS INVESTIGATION DUE TO THE CLOSE RELATIONSHIP OF MR. DUVALS FORMER WIFES CURRENT DIVORCE ATTORNEY (MR.ROY KIGHT )HAVING HAD HIS LAW OFFICE SITUATED IN EL SEGUNDO FOR THE LAST 20 YRS.+ , AND HAVING GOOD FRIENDS IN EL SEGUNDO TO DO HIM CERTAIN FAVORS WHEN NEEDED !!!
~ A SIX MONTH RESTRAINING ORDER THAT BEGAN THIS CHILD CUSTODY SEPERATION OF MR. DUVAL AND HIS CHILDREN WAS BASED ON A EL SEGUNDO REPORT THAT MR. DUVAL SAYS WAS CLEARLY FABRICATED ABOUT HIM TO MAKE HIM LOOK BAD TO THIS PRESIDING JUDGE ~
*** ISN'T IT A LITTLE ODD THAT THIS EL SEGUNDO LAWYER MR.ROY KIGHT WAS ABLE TO PREDICT 22 MONTHS AHEAD OF TIME BY TELLING MR. DUVAL OUTSIDE A SANTA MONICA COURT~ ROOM THAT HE WAS "GOING TO TAKE AWAY ALL HIS CHILD VISITATION AWAY BETWEEN HIM AND HIS CHILDREN AND THAT THIS IS A POKER GAME FELLA AND ARE YOU READY TO PLAY " ***
NO MR. DEVALS MENTAL HEALTH IS NOT THE ISSUE IN THIS LEGAL CASE, THE REAL ISSUE HERE IS DID THIS DIVORCE LAWYER ROY KIGHT SET MR. DUVAL UP WITH GAINING FALSE TESTIMONY IN EL SEGUNDO CA AND INFLUENCE THE EL SEGUNDO PEDOPHILE INVESTIGATION OF HIS 3YR, OLD DAUGHTER ???
ATTORNEY ROY KIGHT IS ON THE RECORD AS HAVING PREVIOUSLY THREATENED MR. DUVAL OUTSIDE THE SANTA MONICA COURT ROOM AND WE FEEL MIGHT ALSO BE SO CAUGHT UP IN THIS CUSTODY BATTLE AND THAT HE MIGHT HAVE HAD WAY TOO MUCH INFLUENCE AND INTEREST WITH THE PEDOPHILE INVESTIGATION THAT NEVER TOOK PLACE ????????????????
LAWYERS FOR POOR AMERICANS WOULD BE VERY INTERESTED IF LAWYER ROY KIGHT WOULD ADMIT UNDER OATH (AND SUPPLY INVESTIGATORS HIS PHONE RECORDS) AS TO NOT EVER ATTEMPTING TO INFLUENCE THE FORMER (NOW RETIRED EL SEGUNDO POLICE DETECTIVE MULRONEY CONCERNING THIS PEDOPHILE CRIMINAL LEGAL CASE ???????????????????????????
WE ENCOURAGE EVERYONE INTERESTED IN PREVENTING FAMILY COURT GAY COMMISSIONERS AND JUDGES ACROSS AMERICA FROM CONTINUING TO ALLOW THEIR COURT APPOINTED LAWYERS LIKE (AMY NEIMAN OF SANTA MONICA) TO MISLEAD JUDGES AROUND THE COUNTRY LIKE WHAT HAPPENED IN MR. DUVALS CHILD CUSTODY CASE IN SANTA MONICA CA,TO CALL THEIR GOVERNMENT LEADERS WHO THEY FEEL MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP MAKE THE NEEDED CHANGES IN THIS LEGAL PROCESS FROM SEPERATING AND DESTROYING OTHER FAMILIES IN OTHER CITIES AND TOWNS ACROSS OUR COUNTRY !!!

LAWYERS FOR POOR AMERICANS IS IN TOTAL DISBELIEF THAT COMMISSIONER DAVID COWAN WOULD EVER THINK THAT HE IS EVEN CAPABLE SOMEHOW OF EVER BEING A FAMILY COURT JUDGE IN THE FUTURE IN SANTA MONICA WITH THIS BIASED JUDICIAL MENTALITY TOWARDS STRAIGHT MEN WITH THEIR CHILDREN !
IT IS OBVIOUS TO ANY HONEST PERSON VIEWING THIS LEAGL HORROR STORY THAT COMMISSIONER COWAN HAS DONE EVERYTHING IN HIS POWER TO DESTROY THE LOVING RELATIONSHIP MR. DUVAL HAS HAD WITH HIS TWO CHILDREN AND I WOULD DARE SAY THAT THIS COMMISSIONER COWAN WOULD BE WELCOME TO SIT IN ANY COURTHOUSE IN FAMILY COURT WITH MEAN SPIRITED CALLOUS DECISIONS AS THESE PORTRAYED IN THE DUVAL LEGAL CASE !!!!
**LAST MONDAY THIS SO CALLED GAY COMMISSIONER, AGAIN CONTINUED HIS CALLOUS DECISION MAKING IN THE DUVAL LEGAL CASE BY TURNING DOWN MR. DUVALS (AND ANY LOVING FATHERS NORMAL REQUEST) TO BE WITH HIS KIDS ON FATHERS DAY !
MR. DUVAL IS SUPPOSE TO ONLY GET 10 MINUTE PHONE CALLS EVERY NIGHT WITH HIS TWO KIDS (IF THE EX WIFE DECIDES TO EVEN PICK UP THE PHONE ?)

~ SAME SEX COUPLES WILL BE DEMANDING GAY JUDGES IN FAMILY COURTS ALL ACROSS AMERICA BE GIVEN THEM ~
THE POINT OF THE ABOVE ARTICLES IS NOT TO ONLY POINT OUT TO THE REST OF THE COUNTRY ABOUT ONE GAY SANTA MONICA COMMISIONER WITH A BIASED SLANT,BUT RATHER TO GET US ALL THINKING ABOUT HOW MANY OTHER SEATED GAY JUDGES AND COMMISSIONERS ALL ACROSS AMERICA VIEW PAEDOPHILES,FAMILY VALUES,CHILDREN... DIFFERENTLY THAN A STRAIGHT FAMILY COURT JUDGE OR COMMISSIONER WOULD .
ARE NOT STRAIGHT AND OUR FUTURE GAY AMERICAN FAMILIES ENTITLED TO HAVE FAMILY COURT JUDGES AND COMMISSIONERS THAT KNOW FIRST~HAND ABOUT THE SPECIFIC LIFE~STYLES THEIR MAKING JUDGEMENTS ON ???
YOU DO NOT THINK FOR ONE MINUTE THAT AMERICAS GAY SAME SEX MARRIAGE COUPLES THAT WILL BE IN OUR FUTURE FAMILY COURTS WILL NOT BE MORE INTERESTED ALSO IN DEMANDING GAY JUDGES OR COMMISSIONERS TO DECIDE THEIR FAMILY DIVORCE AND CUSTODY LEGAL CASES ??
MR.DAMON DUVAL AND HIS TWO BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN OF THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA WERE ALL NEGATIVELY AFFECTED BY REVERSE DISCRIMINATION IN THIS GAY COMMISSIONERS BIASED DECISION MAKING !!!
IF A SURVEY WERE TAKEN OF THE AVERAGE AMERICAN FAMILY (GAY OR STRAIGHT)ABOUT THIS GAY OR STRAIGHT JUDGE & COMMISSIONER FAMILY COURT SITUATION,IT IS OBVIOUS TO MOST THAT A VAST MAJORITY OF AMERICANS WANT OTHERS DECIDING THEIR FAMILY COURT LEGAL ISSUES WITH THE SAME TYPE OF THINKING PROCESS ABOUT GAY OR STRAIGHT FAMILY MATTERS.
THIS IS A VERY REAL CONCERN TO US AT LAWYERS FOR POOR AMERICANS BECAUSE SO MANY AMERICANS DO NOT EVEN HAVE THE RESOURCES TO AFFORD PROPER LEGAL REPRESENTATION IN ALL OUR AMERICAN COURTS.
OUR WWW VOLUNTEER GROUP ATTEMPTS TO LOBBY OUR U.S.CONGRESSIONAL IVORY TOWER LEADERS OF THE FREE WORLD FOR THE RIGHT OF EVERY AMERICAN TO HAVE PROPER LEGAL REPRESENTATION IN OUR CIVIL,CRIMINAL,AND FAMILY COURTS OF LAW.
MR.DAMON DUVAL WENT INTO THIS FAMILY COURT IN SANTA MONICA CA.THINKING HONESTY AND HIS PROVEN PAST YEARS OF LOVE AND CONCERN FOR HIS TWO KIDS WOULD BE VIEWED BY THIS GAY COMMISSIONER JUSTLY WHEN DECISIONS ABOUT CUSTODY AND VISITATION WERE GOING TO BE MADE.
**MR.DUVAL HAS BEEN DENIED ANY VISITATION WITH HIS CHILDREN,CAN NOT SPEAK WITH THEIR SCHOOL TEACHERS OR DOCTORS ETC...*** PAST AND PRESNT CRIMINALS EVEN ARE ALLOWED SUPERVISED VISITATION WITH THEIR CHILDREN ???
DAMON DUVAL DID NOT HAVE A LAWYER TO PROTECT HIS RIGHTS TO CONTINUE BEING THE LOVING FATHER OF THESE TWO BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN (MAYA & JAZZ),AND MAY GOD FORGIVE US ALL IF WE CONTINUE TO ALLOW THIS TRAGIC SITUATION FROM CONTINUING TO ALIENATE ANY FUTURE PARENTS (STRAIGHT OF OTHERWISE) TO BE TAKEN AWAY FROM THEIR LOVING CHILDREN DUE TO A LACK OF PROPER LEGAL REPRESENTATION NOT BEING AFFORDED THEM IN OUR U.S. FAMILY COURTS ACROSS THIS THE WEALTHIEST NATION IN THE WORLD !!!
IF OUR IVORY TOWER LEADERS OF THE FREE WORLD U.S CONGRESS WAS ABLE TO SECURE 50 BILLION $$$ FOR THE INTERNATIONAL FIGHT AGAINST AIDS TO BE SENT OUT OF OUR COUNTRY OVER THE NEXT 5 YRS, REST ASSURED THERE IS PLENTY OF MONEY AVAILABLE FOR OUR MIDDLE CLASS AND WORKING POOR AMERICANS TO ALSO BE AFFORDED PROPER LEGAL REPRESENTATION IN OUR AMERICAN COURTS OF LAW !!!!!!!!!!!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE NATIONAL CRIMINAL JUSTICE COMMISSION ACT OF 2009
The National Criminal Justice Commission Act of 2009 that I introduced in the Senate on March 26, 2009 will create a blue-ribbon commission to look at every aspect of our criminal justice system with an eye toward reshaping the process from top to bottom.
I believe that it is time to bring together the best minds in America to confer, report, and make concrete recommendations about how we can reform the process. This legislation has already garnered wide bipartisan support in Congress and from interest groups representing a range of backgrounds and political viewpoints.
Why We Urgently Need this Legislation: With 5% of the world's population, our country now houses 25% of the world's reported prisoners. Incarcerated drug offenders have soared 1200% since 1980. Four times as many mentally ill people are in prisons than in mental health hospitals. Approximately 1 million gang members reside in the U.S., many of them foreign-based; and Mexican cartels operate in 230+ communities across the country.
Post-incarceration re-entry programs are haphazard and often nonexistent, undermining public safety and making it extremely difficult for ex-offenders to become full, contributing members of society. America's criminal justice system has deteriorated to the point that it is a national disgrace. Its irregularities and inequities cut against the notion that we are a society founded on fundamental fairness. Our failure to address this problem has caused the nation's prisons to burst their seams with massive overcrowding, even as our neighborhoods have become more dangerous.
We are wasting billions of dollars and diminishing millions of lives. We need to fix the system. Doing so will require a major nationwide recalculation of who goes to prison and for how long and of how we address the long-term consequences of incarceration.
